O’Reilly says that Tag Wars is a pathetic attempt to find worthy challengers to their titles. Fish says that if teams want to fight them so bad for the titles, say their name reDRagon three times. Fish says it twice, but O’Reilly cuts him off on the third and says he wouldn’t wish that on his worst enemy.
