(lol) He says this is his show and nobody will tell him what to do. He talks directly to Aces & 8's and tells them no matter who is behind it, he is walking in and out of Bound for Glory as the champion.
Jeff Hardy's music hits and he comes to the ring.
We get a "Hardy" chant and he tells them hello. Hardy shakes Aries hand and says he is doing great. Hardy says he is going to win the BFG Series and they will "tear it up" at the PPV. Aries agrees. Hardy calls out Aces & 8's because they cost him 20 points.
Bully Ray's music hits and comes to the ring and calls Hardy stupid. He says James Storm is behind Aces & 8's. He makes his case and reasons through what transpired at Hardcore Justice. Aries calls attention back to himself and accuses Bully of maybe being behind it.
Aces & 8's appear on the big screen. They main guy says sometimes when you roll the dice, you get the dead man's hand. He says tonight they will make their presence felt in a big way.
