Up next: Tony Schiavone interviewed Don Callis in the ring!

Takeshita walked down to the ring with Callis.

Callis: “I just want to say one thing. A few weeks ago, the wrestling world was abuzz at my so-called pursuit of Chris Jericho. I didn’t end up with Jericho, but I ended up with the man I really wanted, the newest member of the Don Callis Family, Sammy Guevara!”

Sammy Guevara joined Callis and Takeshita in the ring!

Sammy: “You know, Don, believe it or not, I hated you. I hated you for a long time. I hated you almost as much as the audience hates you. I thought you were trying to rip apart my family but really you were just showing me I never had one until now.

“So why did I do that to Chris Jericho on Wednesday? The reason I turned on Jericho is because for the past four years he’s been holding me back, taking me for granted, just like all of you! I don’t need the fans. I’m done trying to earn your love. I have a hot wife at home, a beautiful baby girl, and a fat, fat paycheck.

“Chris Jericho is dead to me, and I never want to see him again!”

Chris Jericho’s music began to play and out walked the Ocho!

Jericho charged into the ring and dished out shots to Takeshita and Sammy! Jericho turned his attention to Callis, but Takeshita battered Jericho with a steel chair. Sammy took the chair and swung it at Chris Jericho, punishing his former mentor!

Callis punched Jericho as Jericho was held back by Takeshita and Sammy. Don pulled out a screwdriver and was about to use it on Jericho when out ran Kenny Omega!

Kenny Omega, steel pipe in hand, came to the aid of Chris Jericho! The Don Callis Family retreated!

“Did Omega do it to thwart Callis or to save Jericho?” wondered Ian.

Alex Marvez interviewed Kenny Omega backstage!

Jericho interrupted Omega.

Jericho: “Jericho and Omega united to take out Callis. His worst nightmare is coming true. And Sammy, you are a true Judas. So, let’s unite and take out the Don Callis Family at Wrestledream?”

Omega: “Don, your Wrestledream on October 1st is going to be more like a nightmare.”
