Match

This is a Money in the Bank Qualifying Match.

Crews began the match with a pair of drop kicks and then a shoulder tackle to send MVP to the outside. When Apollo attempted to give chase, MVP swept his legs and knocked him to the floor. Raw went to commercial. Back from commercial, MVP went for the playmaker but Crews rolled threw and connected with a big spine buster. When MVP put his knees up, Apollo Crews crashed on his frog splash attempt. MVP hit the playmaker, but Crews kicked out. After a Gorilla Press and two standing shooting star presses, Apollo hit a sit down power bomb for a pinfall victory.
