Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler introduced footage from last Friday when Rey Mysterio had to fight in a match against Luke Gallows to make his WM26 match with CM Punk a Street Match. Serena and CM Punk got involved to cost Mysterio the win. If Mysterio loses at Wrestlemania 26, he has the stipulation that he must join the Straightedge Society. Rey unloaded on Gallows after the loss, beating him up viciously outside the ring. CM Punk sat nearby on the ring apron watching and shook his head.
Rey Mysterio arrived to the ring before a commercial break.
Midway through the match, Mysterio went for a 619, but Natalya tripped him from ringside. This prompted Mysterio to slide out of the ring to walk after her. Kidd went out to head him off and crouched down. Mysterio jumped at Kidd and leapfrogged him, landing on DH Smith. Kidd rushed Mysterio and clobbered him down from behind then smashed him into the crowd barrier, kicking him some more as Superstars went to break. Kidd dominated Mysterio after the commercials with a series of submission holds and strikes.
In the closing moments, Kidd was in control but bobbled an attempted springboard move from the ropes, falling to the mat. Mysterio gained momentum and hit a move of his own off the ropes, including a reverse springboard bodypress for a near fall. Kidd made a comeback though as he dropped Rey face first on the ropes on one move. He hit his springboard elbow drop but it wasn't enough to get the pinfall on Rey. Kidd shoved Rey to the ropes for an attempted move, but ended up getting hit on the way back. Mysterio ended up countering a move to send Kidd against the middle rope for the 619, then quickly set up and hit the Springboard Splash to win it.
Winner: Rey Mysterio wins via pinfall over Tyson Kidd.
