The most suprisingly good main event ever.

o **3/4
Good little Smackdown match.

• Carlito (w/Matt Morgan) defeated The Big Show (4:41)

o ¼*
At least it was short.

o London pinned Guerrero after a 450 splash.
o ***
Really good for a WWE cruiserweight match.

o Booker pinned Angle after reversing the Angle Slam.
o ***
Good...good...

• Orlando Jordan defeated Heidenreich to retain the WWE United States Championship (4:54)
o Jordan pinned Heidenreich after a DDT.
o ½*
Again, it was short so its all good.

• Rey Mysterio defeated Eddie Guerrero by disqualification (18:31)
o Guerrero was disqualified after hitting Mysterio with a steel chair.
o ***3/4
This is turning into a nice little show..too bad the main event will suck...

• John Cena defeated John "Bradshaw" Layfield in an "I Quit" match to retain the WWE Championship (22:40)
o JBL quit after Cena was about to hit him with a large exhaust pipe.
o ****1/4
WOW. I'll eat my words. I can't believe these two had a great match..against each other!

~ Main event was shockingly great. 4 other matches were **3/4 to ***3/4. Really good show.
