While the trailer up until this point had shown Cage tackling men working for Cottonmouth, it's this point where the pair actually collide together.

It's shaping up to be the defining conflict of the series, and the stakes rise when Cottonmouth offers to take Cage to war. In the comics, Cornell Cottonmouth actually wants Cage to work for him, but naturally he rejects, and there's a chance that may play a part in things here. It's also an interesting change to see Cage looking pretty smart, although it obviously doesn't stop him from taking on a bunch of guys at once and winning.
