STEEL CAGE MATCH: Tommy Dreamer vs. Broken Matt Hardy.
Matt Hardy told Tommy Dreamer that he knew he'd come. They brawled to the floor immediately and fought all over the ringside area. Dreamer slammed Hardy's nether-regions with the ring bell and rang the nuts, um bell, with a hammer. They finally made their way into the steel cage. Hardy beat Dreamer into the buckles over and over.
They battled up the cage and Dreamer slammed Hardy into the cage several times. Dreamer nailed a Russian Legsweep off the top into the cage. Hardy nailed the Side Effect and scored a two count. Hardy drilled him with a chair. Dreamer tried to make a comeback but was nailed with a sideslam for a two count. Dreamer came back with the Spicoli Driver.
Dreamer went to leave the cage but referee Kevin Keenan aka the the licensed official from all the Hardy compound matches slammed it on his head. Sandman came out and caned him, Dreamer hit a RKO on Matt for a two count. Jeff Hardy ran out and attacked Sandman, laying him out on the floor. The crowd chanted. "Holy sh**!"
Jeff entered the ring and beat Dreamer with a Singapore Cane then poured thumbtacks around the ring. Dreamer was beaten by Hardys and hit with a Sideslam on the thumbtacks for the pin.
Your winner, Matt Hardy!
The crowd chanted "Brother Nero" after at Jeff Hardy.
That is how the iPPV went off the air. Fun but a shorter main event than you'd have expected. I was told that time was cut because of the delay with all the technical issues at the onset of the evening. That's a shame.
After the iPPV went off the air, the fans chanted for a Jeff Hardy swanton bomb. Matt Hardy told him to fight his addiction and not become a spot monkey. Jeff finally listened and left. It looked like he was legitimately fighting whether to whip something crazy up for the fans.
Dreamer and Sandman got a nice reaction as they left.
That is all from HOH tonight!
