Foley enters the ring and Okerlund talks to Foley about what Raven said last week about Foley’s past as Cactus Jack and the fact that Foley betrayed Dreamer back in the old ECW.

Suddenly, Raven arrived to the ring. Raven then told Foley, “Mick, you may have fooled everyone with what you are saying, but you can’t fool me. I still see the out of control, ruthless, insane Cactus Jack of old in your eyes and I know that one day you will snap and become Cactus Jack and maybe it will happen at May Mayhem.” Raven then said that Foley may hate Raven but he knows he hates Dreamer even more because Foley’s afraid that Dreamer will be just like Foley. Then, ASWL King Of Extreme Champion Tommy Dreamer arrived from the crowd and attacked Raven. Both men brawled and then both men collided onto Foley. Foley gets up and gets out Mr. Socko.
