ORLANDO, FLORIDA
-We start with clips of LAX taking out Santa Runt last week. The voice-over man said we will hear from Angle and Joe tonight.
-Borash eavesdropped on a screaming match between Jim Cornette and Kurt Angle in Cornette's office. Angle was closing in on Cornette's lap demanding a re-match. He demanded Joe one-on-one in the ring tonight. Cornette told him to calm down and not disrupt the program. Angle calmed down and said he's not going to mess anything up tonight. He went in for the kiss and whispered, "I will get my re-match one way or the other." Cornette leaned back in his swivel chair and said, "I understand."
1 -- CHRIS SABIN & JAMES STORM vs. PETEY WILLIAMS & X Division champion CHRISTOPHER DANIELS
Sabin came out first and gave the hard camera the wink-and-the gun. Storm slowly walked out alone to new entrance music. Petey walked out and Tenay talked about how much he respects Petey. Daniels came out, then Petey and Sabin went into a sudden exchange of moves. Petey hit a dropkick, then Daniels and Storm tagged in. Daniels gave Storm a hip toss, then a leg whip to the face. Sabin came in and Daniels cleared him. He then slapped an armbar on Storm. Sabin took a tag and applied a neck vice on Daniels. Sabin went for the Cradle Shock, but Daniels countered into a back breaker. Petey and Storm took tags, then Petey took out Storm with a spin kick and bulldog onto Sabin. He hit the Russian Legsweep on Storm and called for the Destroyer, but Sabin kicked Petey in the head to block the move. Sabin then grabbed a chair from ringside and he tried to bring it into the ring, but Mr. 501 Jerry Lynn stole the chair. Daniels then hit a suicide dive onto both Lynn and Sabin on the outside. Back in the ring, Storm countered a Destroyer into a chair shot to the head. For some reason, the referee found himself out of the ring and not watching the in-ring portion of the match to see what should have been a DQ. Storm then made a cover to win. Afterward, Lynn ripped off his t-shirt and laid into Sabin and Daniels with right hand blows. He ran back into the ring and fired up. They instantly cut away.
WINNERS: Sabin & Storm in 5:00.
-They showed Samoa Joe on crutches trying to get down some stairs.
-Ron Killings did a PSA for quitting smoking. He said he's a smoker and he doesn't want his kids to see him smoking. He said he wants to quit, but there's no easy way to do it.
-Borash was with Abyss and James Mitchell last week. Borash asked Mitchell what side Abyss is on. Mitchell said he can't get an answer out of Abyss. Abyss wouldn't budge on his answer. He then tried to grab the NWA Title belt from Mitchell's shoulder, but Mitchell withheld the belt. Mitchell said he would reveal Abyss's secret himself if he doesn't take out Sting with the nightstick. He said Abyss needs to show him that he can trust him. Mitchell said he knows where all the bodies are buried and he would have no problem revealing them.
-They cut to Leticia backstage with Samoa Joe on crutches. Joe said he has no injury. He said Angle could crank on his leg all he wants, be he will not be beaten or broken. Joe said his answer is still "No" to a re-match. He said he has his sights set on the NWA Title and he was undefeated for 18 months, but he never received his title shot. He said Angle cannot beat him, he has moved on, and Angle needs to get over it.
-Team 3D was in the ring. Brother Ray did his own version of Coolio's Shadow of Death song. He then said there are no tag teams left in TNA. Brother Ray called out LAX. Santa Brother Runt Clause then walked out. He said he's glad they're here to take out LAX. Runt wanted to know where 3D was when he took a beating from LAX last week. 3D laughed at him. Ray said they told him to mind his P's and Q's and he turned around and picked a fight with Abyss. Runt asked Runt if he's been drinking again. Runt pulled out a bottle of alcohol and spewed alcohol into Ray's face. He then tried to beat down both men, but Ray ran him over with a hard clothesline. Ray then told Devon to get a table. Devon wouldn't get a table, so Ray grabbed a table. LAX then jumped into the ring and jumped Team 3D. Ray, of course, fought back Tommy Dreamer-style. Security hit the ring and broke up the fight before they cut a break. They came back where Brother Runt was using a steel chair on security. There's something inherently wrong when a small man like Runt can take out five security guards on his own. Runt then wobbled Hernandez with a chair shot and Ray clotheslined Hernandez to the floor. All three set up Homicide on a table. Devon put Runt onto Ray's shoulders and Runt powerbombed Runt through Homicide and the table.
-They instantly cut to a PCS pre-tape segment. Nash said they were doing the Bob Backlund limbo contest with a Lanny Poffo pole. Everyone chanted, "Juice" when Dutt stepped up to the limbo pole. Nash told Lethal to do it for us, the black guys. Senshi apparently didn't understand the rules and jumped over the pole. Nash said it was OK because it's a leaping limbo. It came down to Lethal and Shelley, so Nash said they would go simultaneously. Lethal beat Shelley, then Nash tried to kiss Lethal, but he pulled away as Lethal pulled away.
-Leticia asked Christian about the big secret while Tyson Tomko stood behind them. Christian said he sees a smile on Leticia's face after she scored some serious one-on-one time with him last week. Christian said there's a conspiracy between Sting and Abyss against him. He said that if Abyss and Sting want to turn the nightstick match into a handicap match, then he had the problem solved. Christian called Leticia a trick and walked away.
-They cut to a VKM segment at the Knoxville house show. B.G. made fun of Hunter's mutton chops. That's original. Some woman walked up to Kip and asked if he remembers her. Kip said his memory is shot and she said her son might be his. Kip suddenly had somewhere else to be.
-Bobby Roode walked to the ring. They cut to Ms. Brooks backstage pushing Eric Young into the men's room. Lance Hoyt and Ron Killings walked out and Killings joined Tenay and West on commentary.
2 -- BOBBY ROODE vs. LANCE HOYT (w/Ron Killings)
Killings said his New Year's Resolutions are to quit smoking, go after the NWA Title, and go to Hollywood to become a movie star. He said he already has an agent. Tenay was so overjoyed while West was utterly shocked. Killings said Hoyt has been very supportive of him. Ms. Brooks walked to the ring as Lance Hoyt was perched on top for a moonsault. West said something about quitting smoking after sex. Brooks stroked Hoyt's leg, allowing Roode to run up the ropes and give Hoyt an overhead suplex for the win. Killings wasn't too concerned about Hoyt losing, instead, he sung about Hollywood.
WINNER: Roode in 2:00.
-They cut to Borash, who found Eric Young backstage. Young was on the floor of the bathroom in a trance with his shirt ripped and his belt hanging loose on his pants. He had giant lipstick marks on his cheeks. Young said his New Year's resolution is to lose control.
-Christian Cage and Tomko walked out for the main event. Sting then walked out.
3 -- NWA champion ABYSS (w/James Mitchell) vs. STING vs. CHRISTIAN CAGE (w/Tomko) -- non-title nightstick on a pole match
Christian tried to run up the pole after the opening bell, but Abyss pulled him down. Sting gave Christian a Stinger Splash, then Abyss ran into Christian with a corner splash. Sting dropped Christian and went for the Scorpion Deathlock, but Abyss began climbing the corner. Sting dropped his finisher and pulled Abyss down for a little chat. Christian then gave Abyss a drop toehold sending Abyss to the outside. Sting went for the Scorpion, but Christian kicked him in the face to break the hold. Christian went up the pole, but Sting met him and superplexed him. Abyss began climbing the pole, but Tomko got on the apron. Abyss kicked him aside, then Tomko pulled Abyss to the floor and threw him into the guardrail. Sting tried climbing the pole, but Tomko ran into the ring and press slammed Sting into an overhead slam. They piped in crowd boos. Tomko then climbed the pole and tried to grab the stick, but Sting slingshot Christian into Tomko. The nightstick fell out of Tomko's hand and Sting retrieved it. He stalked Christian and used the nightstick to win. Tomko jumped Sting from behind and Christian instantly popped up with the nighstick. Abyss ducked a stick shot and he cleared Christian and Tomko with big boots. Abyss posed in center ring as Mitchell screamed at Abyss from the outside. Sting handed the nightstick over to Abyss, who accepted the stick. Sting walked out of the ring while Mitchell screamed at Abyss. Tenay said Cornette has to make a decision as to who receives the NWA Title shot.
WINNER: Sting in 5:00.
-They showed clips of the A.J. Styles vs. Rhino feud. They showed back-and-forth promos from both men. Rhino said he will be the last man standing at Final Resolution after thinking with his heart last month when Styles faked an injury. Rhino screamed at the camera that he would be the last man standing at the PPV. Styles was cocky saying he would make Rhino think about his future for ten seconds.
-They aired the 2006 award winners. Styles & Daniels won tag team of the year. Joe vs. Angle was feud of the year. The Ultimate X match at No Surrender won match of the year. Christy Hemme won Knockout of the year. Eric Young was most inspirational. The Kurt Angle Big Announcement was moment of the year. Samoa Joe was Mr. X Division. The Canadian Destroyer was the finisher of the year. Kurt Angle is Who's to Watch in 2007.
-Tenay was with Cornette in the ring to hand over the trophy to Samoa Joe as Mr. TNA in 2006. Cornette said he made a decision that the NWA Title would be defended at the PPV in a three-way elimination match between Abyss, Christian, and Sting. Tenay then introduced the five nominees for Mr. TNA in 2006. They showed A.J. Styles and Kurt Angle backstage in their lockers watching. They showed a clip of Jeff Jarrett's ring entrance, then the locker room door of Sting. They cut to Samoa Joe on crutches backstage with a random woman. Joe didn't show much reaction when he was announced as the winner. He winked at the camera, then walked out on stage. They showed clips of Joe's wars with Scott Steiner, Jeff Jarrett, and Kurt Angle. Joe was suddenly in the ring. Joe took the mic and said it's a tremendous honor. He said Angle has come and gone and tonight he is Mr. TNA. Suddenly, Angle showed up on the entrance ramp dragging Joe's girl out onto stage. Angle threatened to break the woman's ankle if Joe didn't give him the rematch. Joe told Angle that he doesn't have any balls threatening him from 150 feet away. Angle threatened to snap her ankle, then Joe gave Angle the rematch. Angle said it wasn't personal, then he paused and said it was personal. He put her in the anklelock and she screamed out. Angle dropped the hold, then Joe hobbled up the ramp and threw his crutch in Angle's direction as Angle left. The woman cried on the stage as Joe hobbled to her aid.
