Result: Nakamura nails Hardy with the Kinshasa for the win (11:00).

Rating: Well, it was certainly better than their last match, that's for sure. Given Jeff Hardy's recent comments about how banged up he is, it was legitimately wince-inducing to see him going this hard. Considering how he could just phone things in at this point in his career, it's dubiously laudable that he isn't.

The Swanton Bomb on the apron was absolutely nauseating and probably a step too far, in honesty. Overall, though, a solid if not especially memorable match that delivered the correct result in a reasonable timeframe. Orton's post-match appearance was weird as hell, though. 6/10
