Its a tough call, Ive been thinking about this over the weekend.

Last year they main evented the EC over Kurt-Brock, but that seemed to make sense because its hard to follow a gimmick like EC with a regular match (even though the Angle match was better).

But this year there is no clear main event type match. Eddie-Angle should have the most heat and will likely be the best, so there's a case to be made for them. Only way I see JBL-Taker getting the last spot is if Taker is getting the strap, which I dont believe is the case (of course that could change at any time). Eugene-HHH is close to Angle-Eddie in terms of build/heat and since its an HHH match, there is a good chance it will go on last. Also, since there is a good chance Eugene will win, I think it could go on last. Orton-Benoit has the leats amount of build and Benoit is frequently pushed aside, so that could happen again. However, I picked this match because its the one with the most likelyhood of seeing a title switch, so I can see them going with this one as the last match.

At the end of the day the order doesn't really matter, all 4 matches will probably get advertising, so who goes last isn't really much of anything. But its definately tough to call.
