Jon Moxley's music hits and he heads to the ring. He stares down Regal, then looks to hit him. Bryan Danielson runs down and inserts himself between the two men to stop him from doing so.

Danielson then slaps Moxley and says he doesn't care if fans boo. He tells Moxley his father shared the same struggles of addiction as he did, and Regal was there to teach him.
