The lights came on and Team 3D, Christian and Rhino appeared on the ramp, and came to the ring to run off the heels.
Second Show:
– Matt Bentley, with Traci, came out dressed as Santa Claus. They brought Christian down to the ring, and “Santa” presented him with a bunch of gifts including glasses and white pants like Jeff Jarrett wears, a wig, and Jarrett T-Shirt, so he could “look more like a champion”, leading to them putting down Jarrett by saying that “isn’t what a champion looks like”. Jeff Jarrett and Monty Brown came out for a brief brawl, but Christian escaped, and Sting’s logo appeared on the screens again.
