There was a backstage confrontation between Brock Lesnar and Chris Jericho over the finish of the main event match. Unsure whether the finish was planned or not, Jericho confronted Lesnar until Triple H and Vince McMahon broke up the situation with McMahon stating that the ending was indeed planned.
The main event was criticized due to a controversial finish when Randy Orton received elbow shots to the head from Brock Lesnar. Orton was gushing blood as a result and caused the referee to give a TKO win to Brock Lesnar. The incident undermined WWE's concussion efforts and Brock Lesnar was fined $500.
