We see footage from last week when Cody Rhodes attacked Rey Mysterio during his match with CM Punk and the brutal attack by Rhodes.

Matt Striker is in the back with Cody Rhodes and he is in a dark room with a towel over his head. Matt asks Cody why he attacked Rey last week. Cody says that the old expression is an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. A few months ago, Rey Mysterio intentionally drove his knee brace into Cody’s face and shattered the bones and changed him from rugged and handsome. Cody says that he is embarrassed. He doesn’t want to look at himself in the mirror or have others look at him. He says that he is a bitter man.

Last week was only the beginning because at Wrestlemania, Rey Mysterio will have to contend with ‘this’ as Cody pulls the towel from his face to reveal his mask. He will also have to deal with the knee brace.

Jerry looks at the Cole Cubby Hole and Jerry tells Cole that he has sat out here and run his mouth for weeks. He has talked about his mother who recently passed away. He has brought out his son to try to humiliate him. Then Cole took his family album and disrespected the memory of his father. Jerry tells Cole that when you say hurtful things, there are consequences to pay for those things.

Cole leaving before he came out tonight was probably the best thing that he could have done. Lawler says that he probably wouldn’t have made it to Wrestlemania, but Cole wouldn’t have either.

Jerry says that he knows that Cole is terrified because everything that Cole has done has been with the help of Jack Swagger. At Wrestlemania, Steve Austin will take care of Jack Swagger. That will leave the two of them. Cole will be all alone and he will not have a Fortress of Solitude to hide in. Then he won’t just beat Cole, he is going to do what the entire world wants him to do. He promises that he will shut Cole’s mouth.
