BACKSTAGE: Kingston was warming up. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase approached him. They told him to relax because they were going to beat hi down, they’d let Orton do that. Kingston said he won’t let them intimidate him. He called them Orton’s sidekicks. DiBiase said he’s never been in this position – one-on-one against someone of Orton’s caliber. Haven’t they wrestled each other before? Anyway, DiBiase said Kingston is terrified on the inside. Kingston walked down the hall into Orton’s locker room. He told Orton that he doesn’t deserve a title shot ever again and he’s looking forward to beating him down tonight. Kingston looked at DiBiase and Rhodes as if to tell them that move proved he isn’t intimidated.
