A video clip airs courtesy of WWE.Com of Kerwin White during a game of golf. Kerwin introduces us to his caddy Mr Nick Nemeth who looks like a younger version of Randy Orton. (He's come up from OVW by the way) Nemeth says he'll always be by Kerwin's side before Kerwin says if it's not Kerwin White..... Nick says it's not right and turns to reveal a white vest with WHITE written on the back. Hmmm has he altered his catchphrase?

We're back and from a lockup Conway knees Shelton's gut and decks him with a series of punches. Shelton punches back and fires Conway off the ropes who boots Shelton in the head. Shelton charges and Conway hotshots him on the top rope then repeatedly chokes on the mat then on the bottom rope. Conway stomps then cranks Shelton round and drops him with a neckbreaker for a nearfall. Conway applies a chinlock and pulls at Shelton's face. Shelton elbows free, Conway clubs the back and applies a waistlock. Shelton elbows free blindly leaps off the top rope and hits Conway with a springboard cross body. Shelton peppers Conway with punches boots and a chop combo then backelbows down off the ropes. Shelton with an Irish whip, Conway hits the corner face first and Shelton follows through and hits a stinger splash. Shelton brings Conway's back down across his knee and covers 1-2-no. Conway cuts off a whip attempt with a boot to the gut and lifts for a suplex but Shelton lands on his feet and hits Conway with a samoan drop and Conway rolls to the outside. Shelton steps out and stops Conway from getting back in and gets some shots in. Conway does the same to Shelton and this continues as the referee reaches a ten count. Conway rakes the face and rolls in as the bell goes and Conway thinks he's won but Lillian confirms the screwy finish as Conway stomps on Shelton as he rolls back in. Shelton answers back with a clothesline and Conway gets out of dodge and heads to the back as Shelton's music plays. Nevertheless The Official Ruling is: A DOUBLE COUNTOUT. A good match apart from the finish. I expect a rematch on Raw tomorrow.
