Batista opens the show, coming out to his full intro and dressed to
fight. In the ring he announces that he wants to invoke the rematch
clause and regain his belt. Stephanie McMahon comes on the TitanTron
from the WWE Headquarters in Stamford. She tells Batista his rematch
will have to wait until after Survivor Series because John Cena vs. The
Champion is a done deal. She then goes on with more blah blah blah
about finishing some of the long running fueds. After she makes her
matches, she thanks "Dave" for being so patient.
After Stephanie leaves the screen, Randy Orton’s music hits….
After Stephanie leaves the screen, Randy Orton’s music hits. Orton has his own blah blah blah. He’s better than Batista, has been since Evolution. Batista counters with facts.

Another Cena promo vid, with comments from Batista, runs.
Backstage, Cody and Manu grew got back the common sense courage they should have had last week. They say they will prove that their on Orton’s level.
Orton vs. Batista. Batista enters first, with another full intro, then Orton, then Priceless…less Dibiase. Cody says he’s taking on Batista tonight and Randy is all to happy to step aside.
Cody works over Batista’s steel cage injured leg and get’s in a fair amount of offense. Manu even gets in a cheapshot on the outside. Batista ends up with the win, a Batista Bomb to Cody but dedicated to Orton. After the match, Batista stared down, then walked down to Orton. Surprisingly, Orton wanted none of it and slithered to the back.
