IN THE RING
The Main Event Mafia (Kurt Angle & Sting & Scott Steiner & Kevin Nash & Booker T w/Sharmell) + Jeff Jarrett + Mick Foley: Scott Steiner was there with a mask on, after he was supposedly assaulted by Samoa Joe with a Samoan tribal knife. Angle said everything he predicted at Destination-X came true, and said by the end of the night Sting showed his true colors. Angle said it was the biggest screwjob since Montreal. Angle said Sting tried to cover it up by having Foley hit him with a chair. Angle said he wasn’t falling for it, and gave Sting 10-seconds to explain himself before the Mafia does what they have to do. Angle counted down and Sting snatched the microphone away from him. Sting said Kurt has accused him of being disloyal for the last time. Sting said he has been true to the Main Event Mafia since day one, and it’s Kurt personally who he has a problem with. Sting said he owes Kurt NOTHING! Sting said if Kurt wants to continue the story, he hasn’t changed, he’s ALL IN. Kevin Nash took over and said he agrees that Sting owes Kurt nothing, but he does owe the other three members of the Mafia. Nash said the heat has been with Kurt, but two pay per views in row, Mick Foley has raised Sting’s hand – so he’s got something to prove to them. Sting did the Wolfpac sign and Nash accepted. Sting asked what he has to do to prove himself. Angle butt in and said he wanted Sting to be his parter tonight against Jeff Jarrett and Mick Foley! Jeff Jarrett came out and said Kurt doesn’t have the authority to tell anybody to do anything. Jarrett said Kurt was just a wrestler on the TNA roster, and only members of TNA management can book matches. Angle said Jarrett won’t book the match because he and Foley want to protest Sting. Angle said if he was going to screw Sting he was going to screw him to his face. Kurt said Sting was nothing more than a liar. Sting said he would love the match, but Mick Foley was not at active wrestler so it can’t be done. Foley came out and pointed out that Kurt kicked him in the nuts and said he was sorry for hitting Sting with a chair. Foley said Sting isn’t the decider on his future, and never said he had his last match in TNA. Foley said he is a good shareholder, but he’s not a businessman… deep down inside he is a WRESTLER. Foley said tonight he was ALL IN. Jarrett stopped Foley and said it wasn’t the reason he came to TNA. Angle cut them off and said it wasn’t what Jarrett wants. Jarrett said there was a locker-room full of wrestlers who would love to kick Kurt’s ass tonight. Kurt said he doesn’t want them, he wants Jarrett.. Kurt told Jarrett to MAN UP. Jarrett said if Kurt wants him, he’s got him, but one way or another, this ends tonight!
