Rey Mysterio makes his way to the ring. The Lucha Legend says he’s been training with Cain Velasquez, getting him ready to face Brock Lesnar at WWE Crown Jewel. But he wanted to take a minute to come out here tonight to say thank you to all the fans. The outpouring of love and support he and his family has received is humbling. Rey says that is why he is here to tell the fans that we’re his family. And that is why we’re going to celebrate together, like family, when Cain beats “that bastard” at Crown Jewel and puts another scar on his face.
Paul Heyman appears on the Titantron and asks if Rey would be saying any of this if Brock was there in the arena. Of course he wouldn’t, because Lesnar is on SmackDown. Heyman says Rey is like everyone else; delusional enough to think there is someone who can beat Brock Lesnar. And Rey has picked the Godfather to Dominic, the man who beat Brock nine years ago. That isn’t going to happen however, because every morning for the past nine years, Brock Lesnar has salivated at the thought of revenge for that scar. And that comes on October 31st, when Rey serves Cain up like a dinner to Brock. Rey yells at Heyman and says he needs to get this through his head. He speaks Spanish, but out comes Shelton Benjamin.
Benjamin says Rey and his son got their asses handed to them, but Cain came out here to defend them. And what, he gets a title shot for that? Rey says that’s not how it works, it’s a family thing. Shelton scoffs at that, and says he has a buddy; Brock Lesnar. Shelton says he trained with Brock Lesnar and roomed with him; Brock is his family. And he knows Lesnar better than anyone besides Heyman. And he’s going to test a theory and see what happens if he pushes Mysterio around. Benjamin shoves Rey and says he wants to see if he beats up Rey, will he get a title shot. Mysterio tells him to wait until he’s better, but then Benjamin shoves him again and asks where Cain is.
Well, Cain Velasquez answers the call. Cain comes to the ring and Benjamin takes a step back. Cain and Shelton come face-to-face. Benjamin shoots for a takedown but Cain stops him, then lifts him up and slams him down. Velasquez unloads some ground and pound, then chokes Benjamin until he taps. Cain tosses Shelton from the ring and stares on with Rey.
Charly Caruso interviews Seth Rollins backstage and the fans boo. Caruso says it seems that The Fiend has gotten inside his head. Rollins says maybe he has, but maybe he’s inside The Fiend’s head. He even found his way inside the Fun House. He says The Fiend is different; there’s an aura about him that he can’t explain. And once you’ve stepped in the ring with him you’re changed forever. Rollins looks off into the distance, then starts walking off. The fans chant “CM Punk”. Rollins walks up to Humberto Carrillo and says he heard what he said. He didn’t want to burn down the Firefly Fun House, he did it because he had to. And that’s part of being Champion. He admires Humberto’s desire to be Champion. As the Universal Champion, he wants to welcome him to the show and offer him a match, right now.
