The WWE PPV started with a video package still trying to sell that fuzzy WWE Math on four contenders for each of the major Raw and Smackdown titles. The video was interrupted by a recap of Kane's quest to find out who put The Undertaker in a vegetative state.
Arena: Full pyro and fireworks shot off inside the building as they focused on a giant "4" as part of the entrance set. Michael Cole plugged five titles on the line tonight. Justin Roberts then welcomed out the chairman of WWE, Mr. McMahon to start the show.
On-stage: McMahon strutted out on the stage and said he hates to start the show on a somber note, but Raw GM Bret Hart will not be here tonight. McMahon fed to a video package from Monday's Raw when the NXT Rookies sent Hart around and around in a limo to inflict "physical and emotional damage" on Hart. Back live, McMahon said he's meeting with Bret Hart's representatives later tonight to determine Hart's future. McMahon said he hopes to have an update at a late time.

Cue up Drew McIntyre's theme music. McMahon paused as his chosen one, Drew McIntyre walked out on stage. McIntyre shook hands with McMahon, who gave him some instructions before McIntyre smugly walked to the ring. McMahon remained on the stage watching McIntyre all the way to the ring before they recapped the angle on Smackdown when McIntyre made Teddy Long crawl across the ring and take a three count. They cut back live where McIntyre watched the video with pleasure. McMahon was then shown walking backstage where he entered a limo. Apparently he's going to meet with Hart's representatives. The limo took off, then they cut back to McIntyre in the ring. McIntyre said he has instructions from McMahon for Teddy Long to come out here to the ring.
Long somberly walked out sans music. Long made his way to the ring as McIntyre called him a pathetic shell of a man. McIntyre said Long did the right thing collecting a paycheck for his family. He told Long to sit in the chair and watch him win back his Intercontinental Title. He told Long he'll hand it to him when it's over. Cue up Kofi Kingston's theme music to bring out the IC champion. With Kingston in the ring, Tony Chimel handled the formal ring intros as Kofi paced the ring ready to strike.
1 -- Intercontinental champion KOFI KINGSTON vs. DREW MCINTYRE -- IC Title match
Kingston aggressively went after McIntyre early on before knocking him to the outside as the announcers played up the "personal issue" between Mac and Long that has played out on Smackdown. Kingston then set up a move on the outside, but McIntyre cut him off targeting the left knee. McIntyre then picked up an aggressive attack on Kingston with control of the match. The match moved back to the floor where McIntyre wrapped Kingston's left arm around the ringpost to continue the attack. Back in the ring, McIntyre continued to dominate the contest as the announcers stressed points that painted Long as a sympathetic authority figure. McIntyre then mocked Kofi's trademark hand-clap, which drew heat. Kofi fought back from his knees, but McIntyre pounded away on his back to retain control. Kingston reached his feet, but Mac kicked him in the shoulder and landed a fallaway shoulder-yank-type maneuver for a two count.
At 7:30, Kingston suddenly came back with a floatever DDT that drew applause from the interested crowd. Long was shown ringside looking like a fan at the World Cup with his hands clasped wishing and praying for his "team." Kingston teased a comeback with kicks and punches, then he landed a Kenny Omega-style double chop. Kingston then tried a roll-up crucifix pin, but McIntyre kicked out in time. Kingston followed with a turnaround cross-body splash off the ropes, but Mac kicked out again. McIntyre proceeded to cut off Kingston, but Kingston came back with a Russian legsweep. Kofi then started marching around the ring before hitting the Boom Drop. Kingston came to his feet and started his hand clap while selling the shoulder. Mac saw the Trouble in Paradise coming and he ran backwards to avoid the move before sending Kofi head-first into the ringpost. Mac then followed with a big running boot to the head to cut off Kofi's momentum.
At 11:00, McIntyre measured Kofi to continue working him over. Kingston blocked the Future Shock, then he came off the second turnbuckle with a nice Tornado DDT. He made a cover, but McIntyre placed his foot on the bottom rope to stop the three count. Kingston then went to the corner for ten punches, but McIntyre grappled Kingston to chuck him across the ring with a powerbomb for a close two count. After a pause, they came to their feet and Kofi suddenly busted out the SOS out of nowhere. It looked good for a pin, but McIntyre slipped out before a three count. Mac and Kofi then got caught in the corner and ref Charles Robinson took the worst of it with a kick to the head. The crowd popped, thinking Teddy Long would get involved now.
They reset the match with McIntyre hitting the Future Shock. He had a cover, but there was no ref available. McIntyre had the visual three count, but Robinson was KO'ed. McIntyre then pointed to Teddy and walked out of the ring. He grabbed Teddy and threw him into the ring to make him count a three count. McIntyre then ripped off Robinson's ref t-shirt and told him to put it on. Apparently a t-shirt makes you a qualified official. Anyways, Long put the ref shirt on as McIntyre told him to hurry up. McIntyre then covered Kingston and Long counted one, two, then he paused before three. The crowd popped big for the pause.
McIntyre shot him a look and Long shook his head, "No." McIntyre got up and stared down at Long, who begged off. McIntyre said he'll drop Long if he doesn't count to three. McIntyre then went for the Future Shock again, but a suspended Matt Hardy stormed the ring and attacked McIntyre. He hit the Twist of Fate as Long nodded along. Kingston then dropped McIntyre with Trouble in Paradise and made the cover, with Long making the cover for the win. Long celebrated with Kingston as the announcers speculated on what potential repercussions there would be for Long after this.
WINNER: Kingston at 16:30 to retain the IC Title. Kingston and McIntyre had a really nice match before the "storyline portion" of the match unfolded. It was a bit over-booked for a PPV title match, but WWE did the heavy lifting on TV to make it a passable storyline-driven opening match. The crowd was hot for everything in the story, which was a good sign. Good crowd tonight. (***)
Backstage: Hart Dynasty was shown pacing around backstage. They were selling concern over Bret Hart's issue. Savannah asked them how they're going to fare in a six-person tag tonight. Natalya said they're going to make Bret proud tonight. Tyson Kidd said they get to make a name for themselves against the Usos tonight. D.H. Smith recapped Bret signing the Usos to Raw so they can achieve everything they want in WWE. Smith vowed to fight for Bret on Father's Day. Basic stuff, but effective.
