source: WWE.com - CyberSunday Fallout: A vid-clip rolls of Rey Mysterio's interview back stage where Grisham asked about facing Kane. Mysterio said wrestling Kane will change you. Some are destroyed, he said, while others push through. Evan Bourne
interrupts to hype their upcoming match.

The Bourne vs Mysterio match was one of the best I've seen in a long time. These two high-fliers were well matched, went full boor and brought out the best in each other. It was definitely PPV quality! Mysterio picked up the win, though it honestly looked like it could have gone either way, and the two gave each other well deserved props.

Kane's theme split the air of camaraderie and two heads swiveled to watch The Big Red Monster storm down to the ring. Rey sent Evan on his way then charged at Kane, only to be dropped with a big-boot. Kane showed his contempt for the masked master of the 619, beating on him and trying to take off his mask, until Evan returned to the ring and mad the save. The two luchadores worked on Kane until Mark Henry entered the scene, then Evan went for Henry leaving Mysterio to fend off Kane. Henry took care of Bourne, ending with The World's Strongest Slam, while Kane laid Mysterio out with a Chokeslam that had the Tucson crowd gasping. The behemoths stood over their prey to a chorus of boos to end the segment.

My - my!  Interestingly, Mysterio and Bourne have a healthy respect for each other while Kane and Mark Henry were at each other's throats not so long ago!  Will Kane and Mark Henry join forces via their individual disputes with Mysterio and Evan Bourne?
