Mox then shows and beats down Cassidy and leaves.

We then get a video package for the Blood and Guts match from last week. 

In the back, Renee Paquette is the Don Callis and Chris Jericho. Don says that the people are curious about this so he has set up a match where Jericho can be in a tag team match with Takeshita.
