Prime-Time Roundup

Posted: Mar 2nd 2008 By: CMBurnham

2-25 WWE RAW

Ric Flair came out to the ring to join Shawn Michaels. He thanked the crowd and said that Shawn was incredible. He was honoured last week to have Shawn introduce him as the 1st member of the 2008 class of the WWE Hall of Fame. Michaels said no one deserved it more. Flair said it was the highlight of his career. Only one thing could make WresteMania weekend more magical and make Flair's career bigger would be to wrestle the man whose name is synonomous with WrestleMania: Shawn Michaels. Michaels said Flair knows how he feels about him. He reminded Flair that a few months ago, Vince McMahon made an edict: the 1st match Flair lost, he had to retire. Michaels has done things he's ashamed of, but he can't imagine a day in the business without Ric Flair. He doesn't want to be known as the man who ended Flair's career. Flair said that wasn't where he was going. He asked if it was a given that Michaels would end his career. All the respect last week meant nothing if Michaels wouldn't give him the opportunity for the greatest match of his career on the grandest stage of them all: WrestleMania. Michaels said it would be his honour to wrestle Flair.

2-28 TNA iMPACT

Jeremy Borash was backstage with Karen Angle asking what she intended to do about her marriage. Karen started to tear up and asked that the camera be turned off. She embraced Borash. TNA World Tag Team Champion A. J. Styles walked up and asked Borash what he did. Borash filled him in about the situation between the Angles. A. J. told Karen that pro wrestlers aren't the most sensitive people. They fight for a living and don't always think about people's feelings. Karen said A. J. wasn't like that. A. J. said Karen is special and he would treat her that way. He promised to talk to Kurt about the situation.

A. J. Styles walked into TNA World Champion Kurt Angle's dressing room. He said he needed to talk to Kurt about something. Kurt asked if it was about kissing Karen. A. J. said he got caught up in the moment and that would never happen again. Kurt asked if it was about Kevin Nash. A. J. said it was about Karen. He said she was crying on Jeremy Borash's shoulder. Kurt reminded him that she's a woman and that's what they do. They cry if they don't get their way. If A. J. truly knew Karen, he'd know she was a bitch. A. J. said she's Kurt's wife and he shouldn't say things like that. Kurt thought that was cute and said A. J. was "sweet on Karen", but she's still a bitch. A. J. demanded that Kurt take that back, which Kurt thought was a childish thing to say and he left.

TNA World Tag Team Champions A. J. Styles & Tomko accompanied Kurt Angle for his match against Kevin Nash, who brought Samoa Joe & Christian Cage. Shortly after the match began, a melee broke out among all 6, forcing Earl Hebner to order the ringside observers to the back. Towards the end of the match, Karen came out to check on her husband, who unceremoniously shoved her to the ground. This brought Borash & A. J. out to check on her. Kurt used the distraction to gain a cheap win, but as he celebrated in the ring, A. J. picked up Karen, who was bleeding from the mouth, and walked her back up the ramp to the backstage area.
