The "Frontline" Digs in

The Young Guns now seemingly known as the Frontline are first to the ring with Rhino leading the way. Rhino explains that he chose the name. Rhino compares the Young Guns to the Soldiers on the Frontline in battle. Rhino says he is going to war with the Frontline because he believes in TNA. Rhino gets down to business and says he will take out Angle at Final Resolution but its up to Joe and AJ to take out the rest of MEM. Rhino then states that he doesn’t think the rest of the guys have enough experience for a match like this. Rhino says tonight the Frontline becomes an army. I'm going with Beer Money or Team 3D. MEM interrupt. Angle calls Rhino delusional and says he will destroy him at Final Resolution. Angle says anybody with half a brain is already in the MEM. Angle tells Rhino to reconsider or else he will end up in a body bag tonight. Rhino tells Angle to kiss his ass.

Backstage with Angle and JB. JB tells Angle that Jarrett has appointed a Special Enforcer for the match at Final Resolution. Mick Foley.

Sonjay Dutt W/ SoCal Val vs. Rhino vs. Hernandez

Poor Sonjay he could get killed in this match. Belly to Belly suplex followed by a vicious Gore on Sonjay Dutt gets the win for Rhino.

Angle confronts Jarrett. Jarrett insists that Foley is only there to make sure it stays fair. Jarrett says if Angle's goon's get involved, he will personally rip up Angle's contract.

Lauren with the Frontline. Styles is questioning Rhino asking how they can trust them, referring to whoever Rhino has recruited. Rhino says he trusts them. Team 3D it is. Joe and Styles go to leave but 3D call them back. Rhino plays the ECW card while trying to convince 3D to join them. Ray asks what’s in it for them. Joe says nothing but he wants an answer by the end of the night.

Consequences Creed vs. Cute Kip vs. Alex Shelley

Unfortunately no Beautiful People with Cute Kip who is wearing his old Mr. Ass gear. Surprisingly Shelley goes after Creed. Shelley counters the Death Valley Driver into a unique pin for the win.

Lauren with the Beautiful People now. Once again, the Beautiful People are seated on thrones. The Beautiful People have two problems. One, Cute Kip apparently got screwed. Don’t know what match they were watching. Two, they are not on the Final Resolution card. Some member of staff hands an envelope to Angelina love. Velvet Sky calls him an idiot hole. Love opens the envelope and gets very excited. Sarah Palin apparently accepted the offer but cant make the PPV. Love keeps on reading and states that Sarah Palin will be on iMPACT! next week. Sharmell comes into shot and tells the Beautiful people that Booker wants to see them.

Jarrett and Rhino have a little talk. Jarrett wants Rhino to focus fully on Angle, Rhino says he wont let Jarrett down.

Rough Cut with LAX. Hernandez says he considers Homicide his brother. Homicide puts over how well they work together and that everything is 50-50 with them.

Lauren tries to get an update from Team 3D when Steiner interrupts. Steiner says he and the MEM have an offer 3D cant refuse.

Christy Hemme and Traci Brooks have a little argument. It ends with Traci making a match for later tonight. Hemme vs. Raisha Saeed. If Hemme wins she gets a title match against Awesome Kong at Final Resolution.

Jimmy Rave vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir vs. Matt Morgan

Morgan on his knees hits Bashir with a back body drop. Morgan again shows his strength by hitting a Fall Away Slam to Rave and Bashir at the same time. Bashir hits Rave with the WMD for the three count.

Booker T wants the Beautiful people to provide backup for Sharmell at Final Resolution. If The Beautiful People help Sharmell win, they get the locker room of Booker and all his valuables in it.

Angle makes a play to get Team 3D to join the MEM. 3D don’t seem convinced but Angle seems to think other wise. Steiner gives 3D some suits for when they make up their minds.

Raisha Saeed W/ Awesome Kong and Rhaka Khan vs. Christy Hemme

Hemme misses the FFG but still gets the win with a roll up.

Lauren with the Machine Guns. Lauren asks Shelley what he will do with the money should he win. Shelley jokes about buying Styles a personality or Joe a singlet or Mick Foley a new wardrobe. Basically, he is full of confidence.

Alex Shelley vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir vs. Rhino

Interesting to note that JB did the PPV main event introductions for this match. Shelley again goes against the Frontline member in Rhino by helping Bashir in the early going. Rhino pins Shelley after the Gore.

Shelley refuses to put the turkey suit on. Much like Styles did last year. Shelley makes all kinds of excuses to avoid it. Foley tells Shelley he can walk out without putting the outfit on, but he will be out of a job. Shelley puts one leg in and says its on. He eventually puts it all on. Shelley is given a mic by JB. First thing he says is there goes his shot with Sarah Palin. The pro he can see from this is he might get a great MySpace picture. Shelley flips off Foley and gets a DDT for it.

Styles, Joe and Rhino come to the ring. Styles tells Team 3D its time to make a decision. MEM come to the ring before 3D can. Angle introduces Team 3D as the newest members of the MEM. 3D come to the ring in suits. 3D cut a promo about how they want to be remembered before saying if being with the Frontline is wrong, then they don’t want to be right. Ten man brawls ensues with Team 3D coming close to sending Angle through the table but Sting pulled him out at the last second. The Frontline stand tall in the ring to end the show.
