Once both Edge and Alberto Del Rio’s signatures were affixed to their main event WrestleMania World Heavyweight Championship contract (match preview),

World Champion. When he attempted to injure Edge further, however,
Christian emerged to save his former tag team partner.

attacked The World’s Largest Athlete – Justin Gabriel accidently backed into The Big Red Monster, prompting Kane to level him with the chair as well.

Layla to get the pin.

streak that stands at 18-0. (Match preview)
