SummerSlam 2013 opened with a Ring of Fire match, pitting Bray Wyatt against Kane. It was Wyatt's first televised match with the gimmick on the main roster, and it wasn't exactly a stellar outing. The open flame put a cap on what both men could do, and it was sometimes hard for fans in the building to see what was happening.

A familiar face for some WWE fans popped up at ringside during the match. Those who remember Daniel Bryan and Kane's anger management skits from the previous year may remember a character named Harold from those bits.

That would be veteran indy wrestler Scorpio Sky, who made another cameo appearance for WWE, this time as a ringside firefighter during the Ring of Fire bout. The Wrestling Observer notes that other performers from the Championship Wrestling from Hollywood promotion were also present in the same role.
