It is your pleasure to see the essence of Alberto Del Rio as he faces people who tarnish his greatness. He is filthy rich, talented, devoted, handsome, invaluable, a treasure, a stallion of the arts . . .
For no reason, Ryback’s music plays and he goes onto the stage. As he makes his way to the ring, Ricardo goes to the floor and hides behind Cole and Miz.
