Thanks to Wrestlezone for the results...
Before the show properly started we were "greeted" to an in ring promo from Jeff Jerrett.
Jeff Jarrett, with Rhino, came out and cut a ?shoot-style? promo about how he was the reason TNA was going to be on SpikeTV. Then, like last month, he talked about ?Black Wednesday? taking place ?up north?, and said how 20 more wrestlers were about to be fired, this time from TNA. Jarrett then went to Director Of Authority Larry Zbyszko and asked if he would get an NWA Title match if he pins Raven in the tag match tonight. Zbyszko said if he gets the pin, he will get the title shot. However, Zbyszko said if Raven pins Jarrett, then Jarrett will have to wait a full calendar year before getting an NWA Title match.
