Shawn says their flight landed in Chicago and Triple H asked him the three words he thought he would never hear again. Triple H fills in – are you ready? Triple H says the question isn't for Shawn because he knows Shawn is, the question is for Kane and Taker, The Brothers of Destruction. At WWE Crown Jewel, the question is – are you ready? The crowd pops. Shawn says DX is ready. Shawn has a message for Kane and Taker, with absolutely no respect at all – if you're not down with that they got two words for ya.
