After Wyatt had entered the ring, "Gunslinging Rambler" by Gangstagrass hit and the crowd continued to give a mixed reaction as Mankind made his way to the ring.

Jerry Lawler: Well, JR, I don't think this Oregon crowd knows which of these two superstars to get behind tonight!

Jim Ross: Wyatt and Mankind are two controversial characters, King, so it's no surprise they've divided the fans in attendance here at the Moda Center. This is sure to be an intriguing match-up!

As Mankind entered the ring, he and Wyatt started intensely at one another.

Mankind then got to his feet, and to the excitement of the crowd, pulled out Mr Socko! As Mankind did so, Wyatt arched his back and spider-walked across the ring towards Mankind. The spider walk seemed to freak Mankind out, and he moved away from Wyatt, holding up Mr Socko more in defense than attack.

Jerry Lawler: Oh my, JR! I think the only other person to have scared Mankind like this was Kane!

As Mankind backed into the corner, Wyatt got to his feet and grinned maniacally at him.

Ryback: Yeah...

Jerry Lawler: Are you going to tell us you being out here has nothing to do with that?
