12-3 WWE RAW

Melina & WWE World Women's Champion Beth Phoenix def. Mickie James & Maria

12-6 TNA iMPACT

Jeremy Borash was in Jim Cornette's office with Cornette & Matt Morgan. Cornette said things were about to get exciting because tonight he would reveal 3 of the "Feast or Fired" briefcases. He asked Morgan where the briefcases were and Morgan said Krystal had them. Cornette said he wanted them secured where no one could mess with them and sent Morgan to deal with that. Team 3-D came in and Cornette said he wanted to see them anyway. Brother Ray said Cornette had no balls and asked how the X Division guys were going to grow up with Cornette handing them belts. Cornette demaded to have the opportunity to return the TNA World X Division title belt to champion Jay Lethal. At that point, Lethal entered the office and told Cornette to hang the belt above the ring and he would take it back that way. Brother Ray said if Lethal knew anything about history, he would back off a bit. Lethal said he knew history, then said that Earthquake dropped the big elbow and Slick did all the cool talking. Brother Ray sarcastically said that was funny, then told Lethal that as long as there was a ladder or a table in the ring, Team 3-D would dominate. Cornette suggested that they settle the issue in the ring.

Jim Cornette & Matt Morgan met in Cornette's office. Cornette said he hadn't been able to watch the show because he'd been in meetings. Morgan told him the people who won the briefcases would secure them. Cornette went ballistic, saying those were the people he was worried about. He thought that the winners would fiddle with the locks and find out what was in them before. If management called him upstairs, he would take Morgan with him so that if something happens, Morgan would get in trouble first. Cornette then sent Morgan to go and roud up the briefcases and keep them in his posession until he could go out and reveal the contents next week.

12-7 WWE Smackdown

WWE United States Champion Montell Vontavious Porter welcomed the crowd to the VIP Lounge interview segment. He said he often amazed himself. He's a world class athlete from a world class city and parties in world class environments, so it should be no surprise that he'd want to discuss the World Class DVD. He was a huge WCCW fan and his favourite feud was the Fabulous Freebirds vs. The Von Erichs. The trailer for "The Triumph & Tragedy of World Class" was shown. MVP then brought out Michael Hayes. MVP asked Hayes to sit, but Hayes insists he'd rather stand. MVP congratulates Hayes on the DVD. He said he'd watched it a few times. He pointed out that many of the people on the cover were no longer with us and wanted Hayes to talk about the DVD. Hayes said it was no secret that the Freebirds were wild and crazy along with a lot of the others in WCCW, but there were always consequences. The DVD gets the message through about saying "No" to drugs. If just one person gets that message, that's one person who doesn't have to pay the hard price. MVP said Hayes was a survivor, then cracked a joke about him looking good for his age. Hayes kind of digs MVP's styles and asked MVP how old he was. MVP said he was a LOT younger than Hayes. Hayes asked MVP if he could tell time. MVP said "Yes". Hayes said MVP's time was about up. Unless MVP wants his 20-year old ass to get dropped by a 49-year old man, he'd better come up with some respect and not cross that line. MVP responded that Hayes has a thickening waistline and a thinning hairline. Hayes got upset, but MVP tried to calm him down and brought up the relationship that Hayes had with the Hardys, saying they were like the sons Hayes never had. Hayes wanted to keep things on the DVD subject, but MVP said it was his talk show and they would talk about what HE wanted to talk about. He asked Hayes how he felt when Matt Hardy was recently decimated by MVP. Hayes said the Hardys were their own men and suggested that Matt Hardy come back strong against MVP. Hayes then turned the tables and wanted to talk about what it was like last week when Rey Misterio, Jr. beat him last week, then said that this week Teddy Long made a U. S. Title match between Rey & MVP for the Armageddon PPV and finished by making a prediction that next week MVP would lose the title. MVP called Hayes a 3rd rater, saying without Buddy Roberts & Terry Gordy, Hayes would have been nothing. Hayes said that was MVP's problem; he had no respect for the past. He told MVP he didn't have to worry about the past because right now he was going to kick MVP's ass! MVP blindsided Hayes while Hayes was getting out of his suitcoat, then gave him the Playmaker. Rey Misterio, Jr. then came down and beat MVP out of the ring.
