- After the two spoke about their conditioning, WWF President Roddy Piper came out and took over the segment, first saying he didn't want to hear fans boo either Bret or Shawn and then put down each man, telling Michaels he had nice abs, but that didn't mean anything and then telling Bret anyone could have a lucky title defense.
- Piper then said there would be no cheap finish for the match because the winner would be the man with the most falls.
