Sheamus is out. He recounts an old Irish tale about 2 Princes vying to be King of Ireland. They race and as the one is about to lose he cuts off his hand and throws it at the Castle to become King and says he will be just like the young prince and do anything to beat Orton at Hell in the Cell. He says Orton should ask Triple H about how it feels to be crushed by him. Sheamus calls out any Superstar to face "The Fiery Red Hand of the WWE."
