(2) Mark Henry put away Chavo Guerrero in just over a minute to win the shortest match of the bonus. Bonus point for anyone who incorporated "Swoggle" on their scorecard.

Caldwell's Analysis: Travis picks up his second three-point play of the season with correct guesses of Cody Rhodes, Mark Henry, and John Cena on his scorecard. By virtue of his picks, Travis moved into first place. It's been a tight race all the way this season. Should be a good final two weeks leading to the finish.
