Much like its successful prequel from a year ago, this match was an organized spot fest. To make things better, it also had great storytelling and a very emotionally satisfying ending.

The champion Kevin Owens put on a solid performance and had several brutal spots, mostly with his arch nemesis at that time, Sami Zayn. Stardust provided comedic relief in the match, bringing his own ladder before he was taken out after Sin Cara leaped onto him through a ladder (it's fascinating how far he has come since then). Ryder hit an elbow drop on The Miz from the top of the ladder and also had some high-risk spots with Ziggler.

Finally, as Miz was edging closer to victory, he delayed unhooking the belt and it costed him dearly. Ryder seized this opportunity, pushed Miz off the ladder and became the Intercontinental champion in a moment that made almost the entire crowd cheer at the top of their voices.

Ryder did not have a successful run-in with defending the title but this will remain a moment nobody gets to steal from the Long Islander.
