1/35
Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel prepares for his second match of the evening, having already successfully defended his title against Kofi Kingston.
Axel and CM Punk waged a brutal kendo stick battle before employing some more technical maneuvers.
A pleased Paul Heyman watches the third-generation competitor attack Heyman's former best friend.
Punk briefly gets his hands on Heyman early in the bout before a low blow from Axel allows the mastermind to escape from the squared circle.
