Jeff Jarrett starts the show by informing us that, due to Angle's attack on him and Foley last week, he has been suspended without pay for one week. That doesn't seem like such a stiff penalty. Jarrett says that the silver lining in all of this is that Angle's salary will be donated to "a very good cause".

Don West is back at the announce table. He starts off sounding remorseful, and wants to tell everyone that if he had last week to do over…he wouldn't change anything. Because he was right, and spoke out for everyone who's ever been betrayed. Until he hears otherwise he's still part of the TNA announce team, and there's nothing Tenay can do about it.

Mick Foley comes down to the ring. He says that it is with great pleasure that he introduces our World Heavyweight Champion, Sting. When Sting joins him in the ring, the first thing Foley does is to thank Sting for saving him from Kurt Angle last week. But he's realized that that's probably not the only time Sting's saved him. He reminds us of how last week he related the story of dropping his apron-to-concrete elbow drop, and how as awesome as the move was, no one would have cared if it had been on anyone else. Everything Mick's done since, all the world titles, all the books, have all stemmed from that moment. So since Sting has saved him repeatedly before, he'd like to save Sting now. He wants Sting's assurance that win, lose, or draw at Destination X we've seen the last of the Sting who's a member of the Main Event Mafia. Because TNA needs the old Sting back, executive shareholder Mick Foley needs the old Sting back, and, most of all, the fans need the old Sting back. Sting finally speaks, saying that he appreciates all the nice things Mick's said (the crowd, sensing the coming "but", boos here), but he can't let an egomaniac like Kurt Angle determine his future in the MEM. He's got no problem with Steiner, Booker, or Kevin, and has the same sort of history with them that he has with Mick. Mick says that the difference is that he never used Sting like those three have as part of the MEM. Speaking of those three, here they are. Nash wants to know who Mick is that he thinks he can tell Sting what's going on. Mick's barely been here for a cup of coffee, and whether he's wearing a suit or not, he's still front office. Sting shouldn't listen jeopardize everything now that they're so close to their goal of bringing respect back to the business. Sting gets ticked about that, pointing out that Kurt didn't show him any respect when he spat in his face two weeks ago. Nash replies that Kurt isn't here now. Moreover, they knew he was a hot-head when they teamed up with him, but damnit, he's their hot-head. When Nash goes into battle he wants Kurt at his back, but he wants Sting too. So at Destination X, they can have their match like warriors, and shake hands at the end, or Sting can turn his back on the MEM. Maybe he'll be able to live with that, but Kevin, Scott, and Booker won't (I can't tell if that was a threat, which might have been the point).
