As a result, a tag team main event bout which pitched Ziggler and Ambrose against Barrett and Harper was arranged for later that evening.

The team of Ziggler and Ambrose won the day but it was what happened afterwards that was most interesting. Barratt attempts to retake his title after attacking both Ziggler and Ambrose after the bout before turning his attention to R-Truth at ringside.

But Harper beat him to it after Ambrose took out Barrett with a top rope attack, however, Truth escape from Harper with a quick hit and run.
