We have the steel cage match up next – pinfalls and submissions do not count, you can only win when both members of your team have both feet on the floor at the same time.
WWE Tag Team Championships
Steel Cage Match
(C) The Hardy Boyz Vs. Sheamus & Cesaro
Loud “DELETE” chants as the bell rings. Sheamus and Cesaro immediately turn and start climbing the cage but Matt and Jeff pull them back down into the cage. Anarchy ensues for a few minutes as Sheamus and Cesaro try to escape and continuously get stopped.
Jeff hits the crotch leg drop on Sheamus, then throws him into the cafe. Cesaro then tosses Matt Hardy into the cage, and takes the fight to Jeff. Sheamus hits an Irish Curse Backbreaker on Jeff. Sheamus punches Matt before throwing him headfirst into the cage. Again Sheamus and Cesaro look to escape but are pulled back down into the ring. Sheamus and Cesaro whip the Hardy’s towards each other but Matt reverses, meaning Jeff and Cesaro run into each other.

Sheamus and Cesaro are still between the ropes and the cage, and Jeff hits Poetry In Motion on both of them. Matt and Jeff start climbing up but Sheamus and Cesaro eventually climb up and pull them back. Jeff and Cesaro stand atop the top rope and Sheamus grabs Jeff and lands a powerbomb but Jeff brought Cesaro down with him. All three men are down and Matt hits an elbow drop on Cesaro from the top rope.
Matt throws Sheamus into the cage again. Matt climbs to the top of the cage but Cesaro climbs up and pulls him down onto Sheamus’ shoudlers, who hits a running senton. The door of the cage is opened and Sheamus tries to walk out but Matt grabs his leg. Sheamus and Cesaro start beating on Matt, they whip him off the ropes, lift him up high and run him into the cage.
They look to do the same to Jeff but he grabs onto the cage and starts climbing. Cesaro grabs his leg and holds him there. Matt and Sheamus start fighting as Jeff is pulled down. Sheamus looks for a Brogue Kick but Jeff ducks, grabs Cesaro and throws him into the cage. Sheamus grabs Jeff but the Enigmatic Enigma hits an enziguiri and Sheamus turns into Matt, who catches him for a tornado DDT. Both Hardy’s climb up the cage and get onto the top before Sheamus and Cesaro join them. Jeff gets a quarter way down the outside but Cesaro holds him by the arm. Jeff punches Cesaro and falls to the floor! Now Matt is facing both Sheamus and Cesaro by himself.
