Edge got the win, but apparently he was supposed to be screwed out of it by some reverse decision or something, but then a road agent came down and asked Jarrett what the finish for the PPV was. Edge claims that at that point, he didn't know who was getting the win until match time.
So Jarrett told the guy that he was getting the win, and the agent suddenly told Edge he was champ, and that the decision wasn't going to be overturned. They didn't want to leave the Canadian fans upset with another screw job.

Yeah, that's the story as it was on WWE.com a few months ago.
