Lawler then says the rental car he took to SummerSlam didn't work and an old woman pulled out in front of her, causing him to crash in a ten-car pile-up. The doctors have told him he won't be able to take on Hart under any circumstances, and sends out his "self-appointed court jester" Doink to beat him up. Doink shows up with two buckets and a cigar. One bucket has confetti he tosses at the crowd, but the second has water that he douses on Owen and Bruce Hart. Owen and Bruce open up the barricade and try to get to Doink, but to no avail.

Bret Hart goes after Lawler, but the referees hold him back. As per Jack Tunney, Howard Finkel announces that if Lawler does not enter the ring to wrestle Bret Hart, he will be banned from the WWF for life. Bret Hart isn't in the mood to wait, however, and goes after Lawler, hitting him with one of Doink's buckets as he forces him into the ring.
