WINNER and NEW #1 CONTENDER: LUTZ by pinfall.

Madison Rayne is called out for an interview. She appears on screen saying she doesn't have to be at the arena tonight. She also doesn't have to defend the Women's Title. She will appear when she has a show big enough or opponent worthy enough for her to show up. Gilbert Corsey is in the ring and says he apologizes for her attitude, but begins to talk about tonight's #1 contender tag match. he gets interrupted by Tony Gunn.

He says he has a restraining order against Maximus Khan after he showed up at Tony's house, but he also has another document that he thinks Khan will not refuse if he wants to meet him in the ring later tonight.

#1 CONTENDER'S MATCH for the TAG TEAM TITLES: "The Tate Twins": Brandon & Brent vs. Rush Champion "The Prince of Flight" Corey Storm & Dimes.

Quick offense early between the Twins & Storm. Storm with a kick to Brandon and tag to Dimes. Several kicks and a fameasser for 2. A chop and kick to Dimes and the Twins are now in control.

The Legacy of Brutality hits the ringside area and all 4 men try to fight them off. The Tates then hit Dimes with their finisher for the 3!

WINNERS and NEW #1 CONTENDERS: TATES by pinfall.

Dean Hill is out to get things under control. He says he can't do anything about the outcome, but congratulates the Tates on their title opportunity. He tells Dimes & Storm that they will have an opportunity at the Special to face the other 2 L.O.B. members that are not in the title match. It will be a "Genie in a Bottle" match. The one person in that match that climbs a ladder and retrieves the prize hanging above the ring will get 3 wishes. He then says his wish is for everyone to leave and for Tony Gunn to come out...

Gunn says his special offer is for Maximus Khan to sign a contract to face him at the Special for the Heavyweight Title and the restraining order will go away. Khan comes out and Dean tells him the details again. Khan signs the contract and rips up the restraining order. He goes after Gunn, but Gunn says to read the fine print. Khan isn't allowed to touch him until the Special. Khan is upset, but can't touch him as Gunn just smiles. 

This ended the TV taping.
