Tiffany tells him to get out of the ring and go to her office right now. Jack finally leaves the ring.
Tiffany apologizes for what just happened and she says that they will have a great show. Tiffany brings out Christian and he crosses paths with Swagger on the ramp. Swagger pushes Christian off the ramp and then he goes to the back while Christian holds his knee.
