6. Shelton Benjamin def. R-Truth to retain his US Championship

7. Matt Hardy def. Mark Henry w/t Tony Atlas in a No DQ Match to retain his ECW Championship

8. The Undertaker & Triple H def. MVP & The Big Show

Notes:

- It was overall a pretty good show. Every match was good but the main event was easily the match of the night match.

- Disappointing there was no Morrison or Miz. I was expecting them to face the Rectum Brothers for the tag straps until they announced the main event. No Evan Bourne sucked too.

- Kozlov impressed me by not sucking. He worked over Jeff pretty well and got some good heat until Jeff made his big comeback and got the win.

- Swagger showed a lot of potential. His match with Finlay was pretty much him beating the crap out of him until Hornswoogle distracted the ref and Finlay knocked Swagger out with the Shillelagh. Horswoogle blatantly interfered in the match at least three times right in front of the ref which was kinda ridiculous. After the match Finlay brought a bunch of kids to the ring to run around with Hornswoogle.

- Maryse is ridiculously hot live. McCool on the other hand confirmed she was anorectic.

- The Brian Kendrick's dancing was more ridiculous than ever. It was great.

- Taker's knees were shot. Before his match even began he was punching some feeling into them. Then during the match he looked really limited compared to how he can normaly go. Out of everybody in the match he was easily the one that spent less time in the ring (for obvious reason).
