Afterward, Shark took the mic and cut a promo about the birth of a new-and-improved Shark Boy. For the past three months (what?), everyone has stomped a mudhole in his ass. Shark said he's not getting beat up anymore. Tenay and West cackled uproariously. Shark Boy 24:7 means he just bit your ass. Shark then grabbed some clam juice and chugged it like a beer.
WINNER: Shark Boy in 3:00. It's like someone in a backyard wrestling promotion trying to cut an Austin promo for his buddies to get a kick out of. Here is a wrestling promotion on national TV unable to come up with its own material for characters. Oh well. If you are entertained by it, though, then TNA has done its job. (1/2*)

In ring: Back to Borash and Val for the TNA Knockout of the year: Gail Kim. Gail strutted out in a bright blue top and accepted the trophy. She took the mic and thanked everyone for making her 2007 knockout of the year. Gail said she's still feeling the effects of her concussion at the hands of Amazing Kong two weeks ago. Gail said Kong is a disgrace to the Women's Title. She said all Kong cares about is hurting people to put them out indefinitely. Gail said Kong put her down, but didn't put her out.
On cue, Kong's music hit and she stormed out with her "associate", Sayed. Gail and Kong battled in the ring, and Kong punched Gail in the head before landing the spinning back fist to the head. Gail sold a head injury, then Kong went for a powerbomb, but ODB made the save. After taking a swig from her flask, ODB charged the ring and walked into a boot to the face from Kong. ODB fought back with forearms, but Kong barely moved. Kong then smashed ODB with a clubbing clothesline. She went for a powerbomb, but ODB slipped out and landed dropkicks. A third dropkick knocked Kong to the floor, where Kong was held back by her associate.
Backstage: Kurt, Styles, Karen, and Tomko shared a discussion. Kurt told Tomko about the perks available to him if he joins the group, especially getting close to Karen. Tomko said he has a wife and kids at home that give him all his inspiration. Awww. A real babyface in TNA. Kurt laughed, then said they're talking about Karen Angle, not someone you pick up at the strip club. (Get it?) Tomko took offense to Kurt implying Tomko's wife was from a strip club, so he beat him and slammed him into a locker. They battled behind a row of lockers before cutting to break.

Impact Zone: The fight continued to the arena where Tomko took Kurt into the ring and landed more right hand blows. Karen entered the ring with Styles to try to restore order with security people. Kurt rolled to the outside and told Tomko that he just blew it and now they're wrestling next week. Kurt screamed at Tomko that his stripper wife better have the night off so she can drive him to the hospital next week. Tomko had enough and tried to tear Kurt apart while Styles held Karen out of harm's way.
