-BUT Matt Morgan is out while the Coalition celebrates. He says that was another Instant Classic win by Cage. Or, another instant screw job actually. While Cornette is gone, Morgan is calling the shots. His first act is throwing the match out, and it is now a NO contest! At Genesis it will be Cage vs. Kaz, and he will get HIS match as they will have a ladder match to crown the #1 contender! And now you know!

New Decision: No Contest @ 15:45

The commercial hurt of course, but a great TV match until the finish. BUT they made good and signed the rematch, which is a good thing. Kaz looked like a star in that match, which is what they have been trying to do for weeks, but have failed at.

Rating: **¾

-JB is with the Angles and Nash. Angle blames Nash for it, and Nash says he hasn’t been a good friend. Karen says she will go talk to him and take care of business. She says to get along while mommy is gone.

-Back from commercial and Crystal is with the Coalition. He wants to now why Morgan is in charge. WHO DID HE EVER BEAT? He beat Kaz 1, 2, 3 and now Morgan wants to play boss and redo the match. Fine. At least it will be his match, the ladder match. Kaz can try to climb to the top, but there is only room for one and that is for Cage. Tomko says he has been with him since day one, but who is his #1 guy. Cage says not to touch him, and they have been together for years. And he does what he shouldn’t, and that is think. When Cage isn’t around, AJ is in charge. AJ says Cage is an inspiration, and he is his apprentice. He then challenges Scott Steiner, since AJ wrestled at Gainesville Vocational on Scholarship. DIV III BABY! He challenges his to a takedown challenge…OLD SCHOOL. UNO on UNO! At Genesis, Tomko will end them. I love AJ.

Dear Lord Gail is fine. Lock up and a headlock by Kim, takedown and Jade escapes. Headlock again by Kim, Jade escapes and applies a hammerlock. Kim gets a roll up for 2. Another for 2.

Winner: Gail Kim @ 3:45 via pin

A very good little match there, Jade looked like she belonged and didn’t drag it down. I have no complaints with this. I wonder if that was Alexa Thatcher, I am sure Byers will enlighten us in the Crater.

He is here for Big Kev, it is between them. He says to take her sweet cakes out of his locker room.

-Back from commercial and JB and Karen talk. She says back to her original plan. She goes into the men’s room.

Another good match tonight. I could have done without Lethal getting the bitch treatment, and I hated that they waited so late to announce his PPV match, but the match was good.

Rating: **¼

-Abyss and Reign continue to brawl, and 3D gets the table! They grab their belts and lay Machismo on the table and start to whip him! FINALLY the MCMG’s come out to make the save. Hey clear the ring of 3D to a good pop.

-TO THE BACK and Karen tells Kurt that things didn’t go well, BUT she has another plan. It will all be ok. JB whispers to Angle that Karen was in the men’s room. She says she was taking care of business. Angle wants answers and is off to see Hall.

-Back from commercial and Angle makes his way to the ring. He calls out Scott Hall. Angle then goes to the back to look for Hall and that segment was totally pointless. Now we see Angle looking for Hall in the back, and finds Eric Young. Hall appears and they say they don’t know each other. Angle says the stuff with Nash is between them, and says to stay out of his business. Angle then misses an attack like a goof, and Hall slams him into a wall and makes him look like a bitch.

-They run down the Genesis card.

-Crystal is with Scott Steiner. He tells AJ that he was a collegiate star, while AJ was a male cheerleader. Steiner then calls Crystal a skank, and says AJ is not man enough to match the genetic freak. He then says AJ shops at Toys R Us and has Lightning McQueen sheets! Steiner then says he pleasures his chick while AJ sleeps with his Winnie the Pooh pillow. Dear lord Scott Steiner is great.

-AJ comes out in collegiate wrestling gear, and it says GAINESVILLE VOCATIONAL~!

-They took the ropes down for this as well. That adds to the overall feel.

-Back from commercial for the challenge.

They have a 5-minute time limit, who ever gets the most takedowns wins. They shake and AJ tries to play the speed game, and is failing. This is humorous actually. AJ tosses off his headgear, composes himself and then tosses powder into Steiner’s eyes as the ref takes care of the headgear. AJ is up 1-0. He gets another quick one, and does pushups and is happy. 2-0 AJ. He now gets a 3rd. 3-0 AJ. Steiner is pissed and gut wrenches AJ. 3-1. Steiner shoots for another. 3-2 AJ. A 3rd and it is tied 3-3. A belly to belly by Steiner makes it 4-3 for Steiner. Tomko runs in and we have a collegiate DQ. Rick runs out to make the save. Overhead toss on Tomko by Scott. Steiner lines to AJ and then an overhead toss takes AJ to the floor. Steiner pose~!

-JB is with the Angles and Nash. Kurt says he is insane. Nash says he will take care of business. He thinks if Hall does what he would normally do, then they are in trouble.

-Back from commercial for…

THE MAIN EVENT INTERVIEW~!

Nash makes his way to the ring. Nash says he has been waiting all night to find out why Hall is here, and he needs to know now. He asks Hall out to the ring. HEY YO! Hall says it has been a while, and gets welcome back chants. He didn’t get the memo about the dress code and thought they still dyed their hair. He didn’t realize it was time to get mature. Nash says they grow up, and it’s a bitch. Hall says they ran the world, with the KLIQ, and they still do, Nash was easy to find. But how come when Hall staggers and is in the gutter, Nash is nowhere to be seen. Nash says for years he was there staggering next to him. Nash says he almost lost his family, and everything he had. He had to save himself, and maybe he wasn’t the friend he should have been to Hall. Hall says this is now, and it is good to see Nash. They got today and tomorrow. He isn’t Sting’s partner, never has been and never will be. They hug.

Angle makes his way to the ring, and looks confused. He admits that he confused. He says Nash wants to kill him and Hall attacked him, but isn’t the partner.

Sting’s music hits and he comes out. He just stands there, because it’s a MYSTERY~!
