Match

All three men slipped out of the ring and grabbed ladders right at the beginning. John Morrison knocked Jimmy Uso off the top rope and Kofi hit him with a cross body. With the ladder draped over the second rope in the corner, John Morrison put Jimmy Uso on it and hit a tornillo off the post. As John Morrison attempted to climb the ladder, Kofi hit a springboard hurricanrana pulling Morrison off the ladder to the mat.

Jimmy Uso was walking the barricade with what looked like to be an attempt to dive on Kofi, but Kofi threw a ladder at him. Morrison walked the top rope from one turnbuckle to the other, grabbed Kofi Kingston, hit a Spanish fly and then laid there while Jimmy Uso came off the top for a splash.

Kofi Kingston nearly had the tag titles, but John Morrison got in his way a couple of times. Kingston hit a dropkick that looked more like a stomp to send Morrison to the outside.

Eventually all three of the men were standing on the top of ladders and they unhooked the device holding the belts. All three of them had the belts. Morrison unhooked the belts and fell to the mat with them to win the match.
