He says he's the face of fear and after Survivor Series, they will just be remembered as the brothers that Wyatt destroyed. Wyatt makes the thunder come and says Taker's creatures of the night are his. The graphic flashes again and now the lights are on. All of the druids at ringside are wearing sheep masks. Wyatt laughs and tells them to "run!" and they hit the ring. Taker and Kane fight them off. Taker and Kane grab two remaining druids and chokeslam them while looking at The Wyatts.
