When asked about Sid, Shawn Michaels says he doesn't need a bodyguard to protect him or cost him a title match. Sid wipes the smile off his face as Shawn speaks, and he gets angry when Shawn says he's giving him the night off during the rematch. This causes Vince McMahon to prematurely end the interview as Sid tells Shawn not to give him the night off and to give him nothing but respect. The show quickly cuts to a commercial break.
After the break, the first and last thing we see is Shawn Michaels lying in the center of the ring with Sid putting his foot on top of his ribs...and Diesel going after Sid.
