A second referee hit the ring and counted the pin for Kane & RVD.

Big Show vs. Rey Mysterio
Winner: Big Show
- The match ended when Big Show hit Mysterio with a big chokeslam. They played up the "injury" angle with Mysterio by putting him on a stretcher. Big Show went to leave but came back and took the stretcher with Mysterio on it, swinging it against the post. This was basically done to push Big Show as a contender for the WWE Championship as it is rumored he will be facing Brock Lesnar at Judgment Day next month.
- Backstage, Torrie Wilson attacked Stacy Keibler and Keibler was knocked out by many objects falling on her. Scott Steiner eventually came in, comforting Keibler when Test walked in, angry at both Steiner and Keibler.
