John is in the ring and he welcomes us to Main Event because we fight on Wednesday nights. He tells us that he is still a wrestling God. He will make sure that Main Event starts on fire. He brings out one of the most impactful Superstar in WWE history.

We see footage of what Mark Henry did to Sheamus over the last two weeks because that is what he do.

Mark Henry comes to the ring and we have a mini Texas reunion in the ring.

John tells Mark that he has seen Sheamus in some wars but he has never seen Sheamus decimated like that before.

John says ‘That’s What I Do’ and Mark wants to know if John is making fun of him. John says that he is honored to be in the same ring as him. He says that he would love to see Mark in action tonight on Main Event.

Mark says that he would love that too.

John says that Mark doesn’t turn down any fights. He says that he has seen Mark destroy people in singles matches and others have done it.

Mark wants to know if John thinks that Big Show is better than him. Mark says that he will take on three people tonight.
