– Mundo wants his wish and Taya gets excited, and then cries when Mundo uses his wish for Aerostar and asks for Drago to be freed. Taya is pissed at Mundo. Moon leaves Drago and Aerostar unchains him. Drago and Aerostar leave together. Taya now calls Mundo an idiot, and says everything they did was for nothing. Mundo now says only Taya can really grant his wish and Black pulls a ring from his tights, leading to idiot proposing to Taya. She accepts and Mundo breaks out his Randy Savage impersonation as the Macho music plays and he raises Taya on his shoulder ala Savage & Liz.
