Wyatt came outside and threw Bryan back in and had him lying in the corner with his head near the steel post. Wyatt hit Bryan’s head against the post repeatedly.

Wyatt had Bryan’s head on the bottom rope and stood on his chest. He pulled up on his arm ramming Bryan’s neck into the middle rope. Then he began working on Bryan’s neck again checking him and grabbing him around the neck.
