It was 2009 and WWE Intercontinental Champion Rey Mysterio was facing Chris Jericho at WWE Extreme Rules. In the buildup to the match, Jericho had guaranteed that he would both win the WWE Intercontinental Championship as well as take the mask off Rey Mysterio's head.

After a back and forth battle between the two WWE legends, it looked like the diminutive Mysterio had the upper hand. Mysterio had Jericho positioned on the middle rope and was getting ready to hit the 619. Jericho attacked Mysterio in the middle of the move and pulled off Mysterio's mask.

As Mysterio hid his face from the fans and the cameras, Jericho used the opening to roll Mysterio up for the 3-count to win the match and the WWE Intercontinental Championship thus living up to the guarantee's he'd made in the buildup to Extreme Rules 2009.
