Punk said Rey Mysterio would be joining them tonight. Gallows wasn't happy about it, but Punk assured him it was for the best. Gallows and Serena hugged him, while Punk looked in the mirror and stroked his hair.
The angle on Raw where Ted DiBiase offered R-Truth the "Virgil" job, and Truth slapped him, was shown.

DiBiase was accompanied by Virgil. Matt Striker said that he was paying Virgil a contract three times as big as the one his father gave him. Cole said DiBiase got his trust fund early because he made it to a Wrestlemania match. Otherwise, he would have had to wait until he was 30. Truth and DiBiase traded armbars. I think there were chants for Virgil. DiBiase grabbed R-Truth in a waistlock, but Truth grabbed an armbar and flipped him to the mat. A frustrated DiBiase slapped Truth, and Truth responded with a slap and a flurry of punches. Truth leapfrogged DiBiase, ducked under a shot, and hit a side kick.

Backstage
Theodore R. Long was talking with someone on the phone, when Drew McIntyre burst in and demanded that the result of his match be changed. Long said he couldn't do that. McIntyre demanded he change the result, and fire Matt Hardy. Long said he wouldn't. Drew started to rip up Long's office. When he got to the picture of Martin Luther King Jr., Long told him to stop, and begged him not to damage it. Drew said he wouldn't, because King was a revolutionary, and that he (McIntyre) was a lot like King. McIntyre walked off, as Long glared at him.
The events leading to Rey Mysterio vs. CM Punk were shown.
CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio
There was a barber's chair set up at ringside. Punk entered the ring alone, and the announcers said that all others were banned from ringside by Smackdown General Manager Theodore R.

They were beating down Mysterio, when Kane ran out and cleaned house. Kane chokeslammed Punk, and then brawled with Gallows up the aisle. Rey handcuffed Punk to the ropes and gave him another 619. Rey grabbed the clippers and kicked Punk a few times before starting to shave his head. Punk, bleeding, kept struggling, while Rey alternated between hitting him and shaving his head. Punk started begging Rey to stop, and Rey used his legs to hold Punk while shaving it off. Rey got a good amount of the hair off, and stood at ringside, holding up two handfuls of it. Rey went looking under the ring for something, then just left. Serena covered Punk's head with a towel. Rey came back out with a mirror, pulled the towel away, and showed Punk how he looked with his new haircut.
