"Hacksaw" Jim Duggan vs. Chris Jericho
Jericho comes to the ring in his suit and not his gear. He takes the mic and says he is refusing to wrestle tonight. He says he is the 2008 Superstar of the Year, and he has carried the show for the past year. He says it's a slap in the face to have to compete against someone like Duggan. He compares wrestling Duggan after losing in the main event to LeBron James being benched after missing the game winning shot. He refuses to lower himself to a bottom of the barrel talent like Duggan. He says he will not wrestle again until he has an opponent worth of a man of his caliber. Duggan stands in the ring with his sad Grandpa face.

No Match

More fun with Kane and Kelly. Kane asks Kelly if she wants to get to know him better. She reluctantly says no. Kane asks if there is someone else. She says nothing. Kane says she's gonna tell him rather she wants to or not. This is a very disturbing angle.

Still with Kane and Kelly Kelly. Kane tells Kelly she did the right thing by telling him. Kane has to leave now. Kelly pleads for Kane to please not hurt him. Kane gives his sinister laugh and says "love is a wonderful thing"

William Regal and Layla are out to watch the next match from the ramp.

Dolph Ziggler vs. Santa Claas

Before the match Dolph introduces himself of course. Santa Claas is of course Charlie Haas in a Santa suit. Lillian introduces him as being from the South Pole. For a second I was expecting Xanta Klaus. If you don't remember him, consider yourself lucky. Santa hands out presents to the crowd then gives a present to Ziggler. Ziggler doesn't want any part of that telling the ref to ring the bell. Ziggler takes control early but takes time to introduce himself which plain pisses Santa off.

Kennedy shills his movie.

Hacksaw is shown in the back looking depressed. Cryme Tyme come by and say "its time." They take him away.

Jericho is in Stephanie's office. Stephanie wonders what that stunt was that Jericho pulled. Stephanie tells her if she tells him to wrestle she expects him to compete. Stephanie says even against Hacksaw Jim Duggan. She plays the "I'm the boss card." Jericho tells her he doesn't think she's doing a very good job. Jericho informs her that Batista's rematch clause has expired as it exceeded the 30 day timelimit. She says next week all former champions will compete in four matches. The four winners will face off a week later in a fatal four way with the winner of that facing Cena for the World Title. Stephanie tells Jericho that furthermore the next time he has a problem with one of her decisions come talk to her about it, and not make a spectacle on national television. If he does anything like that again, she'll make sure he's never in another match worth of Superstar of the Year.

Cody and Manu are arguing about their plans gone awry earlier in the evening. Orton interrupts and tells them if they can't be 100% successful in everything they do "This Legacy is over"
