Neville was in control early. Breeze hit a northern lights suplex and diving elbow. Neville hit a dragon screw and a knee bar. Breeze came back with a Supermodel kick. Neville got a near fall after a standing 540 splash. Breeze kicked Neville's head into the steel post. Disgusting. Neville DDT'd Breeze on the apron. Breeze won with a second Supermodel kick.
Great opening match. They went to another level, but Breeze got the much-needed win.

Recap: WOW! What a finish to the show. There isn't a rule that states you have to use the MITB briefcase on your own show's champion. Owens is now on SmackDown, I guess. There were other great matches, but the Owens cash in trumps them all.
