McIntyre was ready to take the title off Cody next week, but before that, he wanted to test his self-control.
It turns out McIntyre had boarded Cody’s bus and found a framed photo of him with Dusty Rhodes. McIntyre said Dusty was up in hell, feeling ashamed right now. Then he dropped the picture frame to the ground, shattering the glass.

Cody was furious now and ran backstage. He was stopped by security, and then McIntyre showed up in the ring with a trash bin and the picture from before. He burned it in the middle of the ring, with Cody desperately trying to get into the ring, but he was surrounded by security and other people.
