Robbie falls off a broken ladder, and later gets a back body drop onto a ladder set up between two chairs that allows Stu to make the climb to the top to retrieve the title.

Rocco motions to the back again, and now Adam Revolver is out with a sledgehammer. Rocco nails Jon with the sledgehammer, and Jon kicks out at 2 again! Rocco is flabbergasted. He motions again, and Ca$h Flo & Josh Ashcraft are out and Ca$h hands Rocco the lead pipe. Rocco hits Jon in the ribs and across his back, but Jon is out at 2! Ca$h throws the ref on the outsdie down after taking away the key, and unlocks the cage door. He gives Rocco a kitchen sink! Rocco nails Jon in the head with it, but Jon kicks out again! Rocco literally used everything AND the kitchen sink!
