The music hits and out comes Bad News Barrett to the entrance. He says whoever wins the battle royal receives the huge honor of becoming the new Intercontinental Champion but he's afraid he's got some bad news. Barrett says becoming the new champion will be like an old couple living in Florida. Initially they will love every second of it but it's just delaying the inevitable.
