We’re down to three with Kofi, Orton, and Sheamus. Kofi and Orton go at it as Sheamus just watches from the corner. Sheamus then tries to attack Orton, but Orton counters with a backbreaker before he goes back to work on Kofi. Kofi hits a huge dropkick and charges Orton. Orton almost eliminates him, but Kofi hangs on to the top rope and pulls himself back over to catch Orton by the neck and drag him over the top rope eliminating him.

While Kofi is looking at Orton on the outside, Sheamus comes up from behind and nails him off the apron winning him the match.

WINNER & NUMBER ONE CONTENDER: Sheamus
[COMMERCIAL]
We’re back and we’re going to have a contract signing between John Cena and Sheamus, officiated by Jesse Ventura. Cole and Lawler are back on commentating. Ventura talks about the match at the TLC pay per view. Sheamus grabs a mic, says he’s the number one contender and demands that John Cena stand up and face him. Cena says he’s heard that before and it’s normally Hall of Fame stars saying that to him. John Cena says for the past 8 years he’s hung with the best in the business and he’s proud to stand before them tonight and say he’s the Champion. He’s earned it and everyone knows, whether they like or dislike him, that this business is his life and it’s all he’s got.
Cena lays the belt down on the table and tells Sheamus to take a good look at it because in a few moments, he’s going to sign that contract and go to war with him. He says Sheamus better be ready to make a statement. Sheamus says he retires people because he can. He beats up Hall of Famers because he can. But that’s nothing compared to what he’s going to do Cena. They stare each other down. Cena takes his shirt off and Sheamus signs the contract. Cena signs it and Ventura holds it up.
Ventura then says that he thinks there is a conspiracy in the WWE to keep Cena champion. He goes heel here and says that there was one time when he didn’t get a title shot because he was a rebel. The WWE wants someone like Cena. Cena gets in Ventura’s face and Sheamus nails him with the big boot. He then throws him shoulder first into the steel post. Sheamus grabs Cena and picks him up on his shoulder slamming him down into the table. Ventura says that the match will be a table match at the pay per view. We start seeing replays and go off the air with Sheamus standing over Cena holding up the WWE title.
