Main Event. Triple H vs. Kevin Nash   WWE Undisputed Championship
Can Nash bring the title home to the nWo? Nash blocked a punch and hit the Jackknife at the 12:27 mark. Triple H put Nash through the announce table with a Pedigree. He then landed a huge piledriver. Nash was a bloody mess. They used a table, kendo stick and a couple of chairs. Triple H landed a back breaker and got the three count.
