Bully Ray comes out with Brooke Tessmacher and says things haven't really gone his way, but he is willing to make up with Ken Anderson. He says there's only one person to blame for this, and it's Hulk Hogan, then Hulk comes out and mocks him for complaining. Hulk says there's plenty to get to, but Bully should stop crying and worry about defending his title against one of his brothers. Bully says he knows Anderson will do the right thing, but Hulk says he should be worried his match, so Bully says Anderson should come out and face him. Anderson walks to the ring and blows off Hulk's handshake attempt, then Bully says their bond is stronger than Hulk will ever be. Anderson tells Bully he was right and he was out of line, but he can't wait to get more out of line, then he decks Bully and Hulk wishes them good luck in a Last Man Standing match.
