Back in the ring, Hardy worked over Kennedy in a corner with punches, but Kennedy hooked Hardy's pants and yanked him through the ropes and to the floor.  As Hardy got back into the ring, Kennedy hit a running kick to the head.  Kennedy scored a two count, then applied a cravate.  Hardy broke out and went for a backdrop, but Kennedy caught him with a DDT for a two count.  Kennedy applied a chinlock on the mat.  Hardy got to his feet and punched out of it, but Kennedy nailed a clothesline for a two count.  Kennedy went to the second rope, but Hardy stopped him and hit some punches, then took him off the ropes with a top rope rana. 

Kennedy and Hardy exchanged punches, then Kennedy kicked Hardy in the gut, but Hardy came back with a pair of clotheslines and a back elbow.  Hardy hit a slingblade clothesline for a two count, then called for the Twist Of Fate.  Kennedy shoved off the Twist Of Fate, but Hardy went right up the ropes and hit Whisper In The Wind for a two count.  Kennedy hit Hardy with a kick, but Hardy nailed a mule kick.  Kennedy slumped down in the corner.  Hardy charged and went for his elevated kick off the ropes in the corner.  Kennedy moved and Hardy crashed to the mat and Kennedy got the clean pin at the ten minute mark.

Michael Cole and JBL talked about MVP's opponents for the night, and Michael Cole voted for Kane.

Another Diva Halloween Costume segment.  Michelle McCool (Eve from the Garden Of Eden, although she had way too much clothing on), Melina (Vegas Showgirl). 

Mick Foley was about to be interviewed backstage by Anastasia, but JBL interrupted from ringside and had them play his "Vote For JBL" video.  They went back to Mick Foley, who called JBL a "fathead" (he was standing between Undertaker and Batista "fathead" hangings).  Foley put himself over to be voted in as referee. 

U.S. Champion MVP vs. Kane, Mark Henry or Great Khali.

MVP made his entrance, as JBL commented how this was "wrong" and unfair to MVP. Todd Grisham was with Vickie Guerrero, and they put over the choices for the U.S. Title match.  The three challengers were shown in the back.  The winner was then revealed: 
Kane: 67%
Great Khali: 24%
Mark Henry: 9%

MVP rolled to the floor at the bell, as he still had his T-Shirt on and needed time to take it off.  MVP returned to the ring, avoided a Kane punch and hit a series of rights.  Kane reversed a whip and hit a big boot to the face.  Kane delivered a clothesline in the corner, then a second.  Kane followed with a side slam for a two count. Kane went to the top rope, but MVP knocked his legs out and Kane fell gut first across the ropes.  MVP kicked the midsection, as the announcers talked about Kane's recent rib injury.  MVP pounded on the ribs, then drove his knee into them.  MVP hit a running kick to the face for a two count.  MVP applied an abdominal stretch and hit hammerfists on the ribs.  Kane got his arm free and elbowed out.  MVP hit some kicks to the ribs, but Kane grabbed an ankle pick and hit a series of punches and knees to MVP's kidneys. 

Kane lifted up MVP and hit some knees to the midsection, then kicks.  Kane stood on MVP's stomach and continued to kick him.  Kane gave MVP a backbreaker, then applied his own abdominal stretch and pounded his midsection.  Kane lifted MVP and rammed him in a corner.  Kane hit a shoulderblock to the midsection, then another.  Kane placed MVP on the ropes in the corner and punted him in the gut. Kane went to the floor and pulled MVP by his arm and leg so his ribs would be pulled against the ringpost.  Kane broke the hold and MVP rolled to the floor as Kane got back in.  MVP started to get back in the ring at a seven count, but then as the referee reached nine, MVP slumped back to the floor, taking the countout loss at the seven minute mark. 

Winner via countout: Kane.
