John Cena vs. CM Punk

Punk arrived to the ring along with SES members Luke Gallows and Serena. Cena told the ref to keep an eye on them at ringside during the match.

Cena went on a tear as he gained momentum and started knocking Punk down with shoulder tackles. As he prepared for Five Knuckle Shuffle, NXT winner Wade Barrett emerged from backstage to the top of the ramp. Cena became distracted and dropped Punk from the Attitude Adjustment, turning his attention to Barrett as he walked down the ramp.

Punk and Gallows were on the outside with Cena still in the ring. Barrett stopped at the bottom of the ramp. Suddenly, the 7 other rookies from season 1 of NXT came out of the crowd. They gave a beatdown to Gallows and Punk, then all climbed onto the apron to surround Cena. David Otunga took out the ref. Cena eyed all of the NXT guys, then started going after Barrett. The others attacked Cena from behind. They all kept giving Cena a beatdown in the ring. All of the NXT rookies were wearing special armbands with yellow "N's" on them.

From there it became mass destruction. The NXT guys completely tore apart the ring, the floor, the commentators table and attacked everyone in sight. They knocked down Justin Roberts, The Fink and Jerry Lawler. For some reason none of the other Raw or Smackdown superstars came out to help Cena as they got back in the ring again and continued to beat him up. CM Punk got back in the ring to try to help, but the NXT guys started to attack him and eventually tossed him out.

Skip Sheffield gave Cena a hard clothesline to take him down, then Heath Slater went to choke him with part of the destroyed ring rope. The fans booed loudly. Daniel Bryan got down on the match and started yelling at Cena, you are not better than me. Cena got to his knees and Bryan spit in his face then kicked him down. The NXT guys continued to do their moves on Cena including Barrett's finisher and Gabriel's 450 splash. Finally they left the destroyed ring with Cena laying face down.

Medical personnel got in the ring to check on the fallen John Cena. Cameras revealed the destroyed commentators table. A stretcher was wheeled down to take John Cena out of there. Some of the fans in the crowd looked horrified at what had happened to Cena as he was wheeled up the ramp. Staff cleared the broken commentary area to free Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker. Cena gave a thumbs up as they had him up on the ramp on the stretcher.

Winner: No contest, match ended when NXT former contestants intervened.
