Winner – Zack Ryder
Mick Foley comes out dressed like Santa Claus and he tells everyone a tale about a plan for tomorrow's Smackdown special. He rhymes and includes some superstars and the cage match, then ends by saying he will see them tomorrow night. He leaves and goes backstage as Josh Mathews catches up with CM Punk and asks him what he thinks about the stipulation to his title match tonight. Punk says he is going to retain his title then tell John to kiss his bottom after the match. He says he meant kiss his ass, then walks away but stops and says just so he doesn't get disqualified he yells kiss my ass and heads to the ring.
