11-22 TNA iMPACT

TNA World Champion Kurt Angle, his wife Karen, TNA World Tag Team Champion A. J. Styles & Tomko and Jeremy Borash were all seated at a Thanksgiving feast at the opening of the show. Kurt thanked everyone for being there. He welcomed Jeremy as part of his family. He then gave special thanks to his wife for the food. He asked that everyone bow their heads and take hands for grace. Borash reached across the table to take Karen's hand, receiving a scowl from Kurt. Before the prayer, Kurt asked Tomko to remove his hat. Tomko asked why Karen didn't have to remove hers. Kurt said she was a pilgrim. Kurt then began his prayer, thanking God for his looks, his World title and his Olympic gold medal. A. J. broke off holding hands with Tomko to shove some food in his mouth. Borash & Karen made faces at each other, sticking their tongues out and showing mouths full of food. Kurt thanked God for his daughter, shown sitting at the kid's table all alone. He said, "She can be king of a brat sometimes." He thanked God that Pacman Jones was no longer in TNA. He was thankful that the TNA writers weren't on strike, even thought they got no resiidual from the DVDs. Most of all, he was thankful that A. J. & Tomko were on his side as they will face "Fat Joe and the Over-the-Hill-ers" at the Turning Point PPV. After the prayer was over, A. J. asked Kurt if Christian Cage would be there and Kurt assured him that Cage was invited.

TNA World Tag Team Champion A. J. Styles def. Christian Cage and TNA World X Division Champion Jay Lethal in a Triple Threat Match to advance to the finals of the Turkey Bowl.

Samoa Joe def. Chris Sabin and TNA World Tag Team Champion A. J. Styles in a Triple Threat Match to win the 2007 Turkey Bowl. Joe won $25, 000 as a result, while A. J., because he was pinned, was forced to wear a turkey costume. A. J. refused to co-operate in putting on the turkey outfit as the show went to commercial.

Jim Cornette arrived at ringside and said A. J. has been the biggest turkey in TNA for a long time and now he's going to prove it. He demanded that A. J. put on the turkey suit. A. J. continued to protest the decision, but reluctantly (and slowly) put on the legs of the costume. Cornette told him that he had to put the suit on all the way or he's "all the way fired". A. J. tried to protest that the suit was too small, but that fell on deaf ears. When A. J. finally got the suit on, Kurt Angle & Tomko came to the ring. Kurt said he'd never been so humiliated, but now he's standing next to a turkey. A. J. said Kurt didn't look like an Olympic gold medalist, he looked like a turkey. Samoa Joe, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall all came out at this point. Joe said he wasn't sure about looking like turkeys, but they looked like 3 jackasses to him. Kurt siad he'd rather be a jackass than a Samoan. Joe invited Nash & Hall to go kick some ass. All 6 men brawled in the ring. Eric Young then came out with a turkey leg. Joe told told Eric to stick a fork in Kurt because he's done. Eric shoved the turkey leg in Kurt's mouth as the show closed.
