Orton locked in a rear chin lock on the mat, again focussing on the neck of Edge. Edge fought back to his feet but Orton pulled him down by the hair and hit a legdrop for two and then locked in a rear chin lock again, these guys are out there acting as if they have wreslted for an hour with all these restholds. The fans tried to get behind Edge but Orton kept him grounded.
A boring chant started as Orton grapevined the leg of Edge while still in the rear chin lock. Edge finally fought out and hit a cross body on Orton for two. Edge rolled up Orton for another two but Orton got right back up and knocked Edge down with a big clothesline. Orton got on the middle rope and jumped off, but Edge hit a dropkick to his mid section in mid air. Edge scored with a neckbreaker on Orton to a mixed reaction and both men are down on the mat.
Orton hit Edge with a thumb to the eye and the removed a turnbuckle pad and the referee went to retrieve it, and Edge had Orton rolled up but only got two. Orton then rolled Edge up for two and then hit a dropkick for another two count. Orton removed his elbow pad but Orton hit the Edgecution for two! Edge stumbled around the ring and went for some punches in the corner but Orton hot shotted Edge and rolled him up with his feet on the ropes for a two count!
The finish:
Orton went for the RKO but Edge shoved him off and went for the Spear but Orton leapfrogged it and Edge went face first into the buckle. Orton went for the RKO but Edge countered into a backslide for two! Edge sent Orton into the exposed buckle and hit the Spear and we have a NEW Intercontinental Champion in Edge!
Winner, and NEW Intercontinental Champion, Edge
