Other highlights:
Mr. Anderson and Jeff Hardy talked things out in the ring at the start of the show. Even though they would be facing one another later in the show.
Angelina Love called out Madison Rayne after the match. Rayne suggested Love put her career on the line at Victory Road on Sunday. Love agreed, but planned ahead. She said she had met with the Championship Committee and if Lacey Von Erich or Velvet Skye interfere in the match in any way that Rayne would be DQ’d and Love would become the Knockouts Champion.
Devon was in the ring with Jesse Neal and Shannon Moore and called out Brother Ray. After going through a bunch of Jesse’s history Devon asked Ray what his problem with Jesse was. Ray started off by saying he doesn’t answer to Devon, and that he is Brother Ray, the leader of Team 3D. Ray went on to say how his problem is now with Devon because he is not a loyal partner. He went on to say that at Victory Road it would be Brother Ray vs. Jesse Neal vs. Devon in a Three-Way Dance.
There was a public service announcement from Alex Shelly speaking out against Beer Money…Paid for by The Motor City Machine Guns and The Beer Money Are A Couple Of Tools Foundation.
Jay Lethal was in the ring talking about his upcoming match with Ric Flair at Victory Road, and to his mother who is apparently sick when Flair came out to interupt. Flair went on one of his usual rants trying to get into Lethal’s head.
After the Hardy-Anderson match out came Abyss carrying his new toy. (The 2X4 with hundreds of nails in it.) The ref got it away from him which allowed Anderson and Hardy to get the upper hand briefly. Abyss recovered and got a hold of the 2X4. He swung it at Anderson who ducked out of the way. It got stuck in the turnbuckle pad. Anderson grabbed the chair he had brought to ringside with him and crept up behind Hardy who was behind Abyss. He yelled for Jeff to move and hit Abyss with the chair. Out came Rob Van Dam. He took the chair from Anderson and hit the Van Daminator (Threw the chair for Abyss to catch and then hit the chair with a spinning round kick.) on Abyss. The three then stood int he ring celebrating. RVD and Hardy shook hands, then RVD and Anderson shook hands, but Anderson pulled him in close to remind him that Sunday they would be opponents.
It was a pretty good show leading into the Victory Road PPV this weekend. Built up just enough curiosity to get people to watch. It should really be a good PPV too. The Joe-RVD match was one of the best that has been on TV in a long time. I am sure it is the first in quite a few great matches between the two.
