A few weeks ago, Von Wagner took out Ikemen Jiro. This Tuesday, there was some follow-up that brought a match between the rivals. Despite a valiant effort by the Japanese star, the colossus Wagner scored the victory and once again sought to attack the fallen Jiro.

However, Josh Briggs made the save to send Wagner crashing and burning over the top rope. It was most certainly the right call and made for an exciting moment to bring Josh Briggs back into the fold.
