Following the electrifying Women’s Royal Rumble match, the action continued with a high-stakes Two out of Three Falls bout for the WWE Tag Team Championship between #DIY and Motor City Machine Guns. The first fall went to #DIY, as Tommaso Ciampa secured a pinfall victory over Alex Shelley with a devastating knee trembler.

In the second fall, Ciampa and Shelley started in the ring before Gargano tagged in to take on Shelley. Meanwhile, Sabin and Ciampa battled outside. Amidst the chaos, referee Ryan Tran missed a tag between Shelley and Sabin, forcing Sabin to wait. However, Shelley eventually made the tag, and Sabin stormed in with a vengeance. This shift in momentum led to MCMG winning the second fall via pinfall after executing Skull and Bones on Johnny Gargano.

With the match tied 1-1, the final fall was an edge-of-the-seat thriller. Both teams fought tooth and nail until an unexpected twist changed everything—a hooded figure interfered, later revealed to be Montez Ford of the Street Profits. Their return made an immediate impact, creating an opening that #DIY capitalized on.

Seizing the moment, #DIY delivered Meet in the Middle on Alex Shelley, securing the decisive pinfall. With a 2-1 victory, they successfully retained the WWE Tag Team Championship, reaffirming their status as one of the best tag teams of this generation.

The most anticipated match of the evening finally took place—a thrilling ladder match between Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes for the WWE Undisputed Title. Both superstars fully embraced the stipulation, using the ladders as weapons to inflict punishment on each other. Right from the start, the action spilled into the crowd, turning into a chaotic and hardcore brawl that had fans on the edge of their seats.

Throughout the match, Owens and Rhodes relentlessly utilized ladders, slamming each other onto them and using them strategically to gain the upper hand. As expected, Kevin Owens seized every opportunity to inflict damage on Rhodes, making full use of the unforgiving steel.

The most shocking moment came when Kevin Owens delivered a devastating Brain Buster from the top turnbuckle, sending Cody crashing through a ladder. The impact left both superstars battered and struggling to recover.

Despite the punishment, Rhodes fought back, hitting Owens with a Cross Rhodes before dragging the fight to the announce table area. There, he unleashed a vicious assault, busting Owens wide open.

Owens, desperate to turn the tide, landed a low blow on Rhodes and attempted a Package Piledriver from the announce table onto a ladder. However, Rhodes countered at the last second, delivering a brutal Alabama Slam that sent Owens crashing through the ladder, leaving him badly injured. With Owens down, Rhodes seized the moment, climbing the ladder and retrieving the championship to retain his title in a hard-fought victory.

However, moments later, Breakker turned on him, hitting a running spear and tossing him out of the match. The action escalated when Jacob Fatu made a dominant entry, quickly establishing control with three consecutive eliminations—Chad Gable, Andrade, and Rey Mysterio.
