The main event had a pretty wild finish. Punk hit the GTS and had Owens in trouble, but the pin never came. Owens got back up, bounced off the ropes and caught Punk with a chain-wrapped fist, and that got him the pinfall. No Holds Barred means there are no disqualifications, so the chain was fair game.
