Just as M-N-M felt smug in their actions, Johnny Jeter and Matt Cappotelli did come out and grabbed a microphone from Dean at the desk. Matt told M-N-M that they didn’t come out before because they had figured no one in M-N-M could count that high. The Thrillseekers announced that they would give M-N-M a title shot next week, with the stipulation that the “Hollywood Ho” Melina be kept out of the way by being handcuffed to a post. M-N-M agree, although not thrilled with the idea. So next week will see The Thrillseekers vs. M-N-M; or, rather, M-N. Will the stipulation help The Thrillseekers out? Only time will tell.

UNTELEVISED MATCH - MNM (W/ MELINA) & LANCE STORM VS. THE DUDLEYZ & TOMMY DREAMER
Things started off with Tommy Dreamer coming to the ring to make a major announcement. He mentioned that he now worked behind-the-scenes for WWE, looking to OVW for the next Rock or Stone Cold and pointing out how many OVW stars had become big stars in WWE as well. However, just as he was about to make his big announcement, M-N-M hit the arena with their full red carpet treatment.

Joey Matthews grabbed the mic and told Dreamer that no one wanted to hear his “big announcement” as M-N-M were the stars of OVW and ratings were through the roof because of them. As for Dreamer, he is “just yesterday’s news.” Dreamer politely pointed out to Joey that he felt, and was sure that the fans would agree, that Matthews was a name that probably shouldn’t appear in a family-oriented review here.

Matthews returned the volley by calling Dreamer a has-been who “sucked in WWE and sucked in ECW” and who they hated. But they didn’t hate him quite as much as a man waiting in the back did. With that, Lance Storm came to the ring, hoping to “be serious for just one moment” by telling Dreamer to hire someone “from Calgary, Alberta, Canada.” Storm then went on to point out how he had won multiple titles in both WCW and WWE, while Dreamer’s career amounted to “being a curtain-jerker” in WWE and a short-lived career in ECW, of which Storm pointed out, “I was kicking your ass there too!”

Dreamer listened and stated that his big announcement was that he wanted to come out of retirement to have one final match in OVW. And since he had a couple of friends waiting in the back, they would be his tag-team partners in a match against Lance Storm and M-N-M. At that point, the Dudley Boys came out to the roar of the crowd and the horrified looks of M-N-M.

Going into the match itself, Bubba Dudley threw Joey Matthews into the corner and chopped him so hard in the chest that Matthews fell down on his knees and started crawling away. Bubba was not to let it go that easy for him, however, grabbing Joey by the hair and throwing him back into the corner for another chop to the chest. With that, Matthews fell out of the ring. Further on, D-Von came in to punch some sense into the head of Lance Storm. As Lance went down, Johnny Nitro ran in, only to get the same treatment from D-Von. Lance got up and went down again with another blow to the head, and Nitro repeated the same action. A whip was reversed by Lance, but D-Von came back with a clothesline so hard that Storm bounced out of the ring. D-Von then backdropped Johnny before punching Matthews off of the apron. D-von then slammed Lance Storm facefirst into the mat, before clotheslining Nitro.

A few more minutes in, Bubba was back in the ring, unsuspecting that Melina was creeping up behind him to hit him with something in her hand. Bubba fought off the attack by pulling Melina’s skirt down, and then sending her on the way with a pat on the rump. Matthews suckerpunched Bubba, but a whip attempt was turned into a bodyslam of Matthews by Bubba. With Matthews out, it was time for a little “Whazzzup” by the Dudleys and Matthews found himself in a lot of pain from D-Von’s flying headbutt to the crotch. With Dreamer getting the win over Storm, the Dreamer team started to celebrate, only to be attacked by Johnny Nitro holding a cellphone and Joey Matthews holding a tennis racket (hmm … that seems strangely familiar for some reason, although I can’t place exactly why). They attack Dreamer and the Dudleys until The Thrillseekers run out to drive M-N-M off.
