The first main event of the night featured the World Heavyweight Championship being defended by the champion Jack Swagger in a Fatal 4-Way match against Rey Mysterio, The Big Show and CM Punk. Big Show dominated the first half of the match, quickly knocking down all of his opponents. The advantage turned when the other three competitors concentrated their offense mainly on him taking him out for some time. The match was then contested evenly until Punk hit his finisher on Swagger, but before he could pin him, they were interrupted by Kane. Kane attempted to put Punk in a casket but Punk was able to espape with Kane in pursuit. Mysterio took advantage of the situation and hit Swagger with his finishing move, the 619, and covered him to win his first World Heavyweight Championship since 2006.
The Miz defended his United States Championship against the former champion R-Truth. Miz made his entrance using his opponent's entrance music, barring a few tweaks he made in his favor. The match went at a quick pace throughout and came to an end when Miz reversed R-Truth for a pin attempt which was completed and he retained his title.
The Unified tag team champions, The Hart Dynasty, competed against The Usos and Tamina next in a six-person tag team match. The match was won by the Hart Dynasty.
The seventh and final match of the evening was for the WWE Championship defended by John Cena against Sheamus, Randy Orton and Edge in a fatal four-way match. The crowd gave every superstar a positive reaction regardless of their status of a hero or villain. None of the competitors stayed in the ring for long as when one would get an advantage over another opponent they would be interrupted by another one of the challengers. The match came to an abrupt end when it was interrupted by the rookies from the first season of WWE NXT who had previously formed a faction against the roster of the Raw brand. The rookies first attacked Cena in the ring. Edge then tried to help him but was then attacked next instead. In the midst of the commotion, Sheamus pinned Cena to win the championship, bringing the event to a premature conclusion.
