He said he can't afford to risk his health tonight and that is the deal.

- Footage of Scott Steiner arriving is then shown. Lauren informs Steiner that Kurt Angle can't compete tonight. Steiner said it was the first time he heard about it and thinks it is better this way since he was originally supposed to face Samoa Joe one-on-one.

- We then see footage of TNA World Champion Samoa Joe arriving in his limo. Joe said it was unfortunate that Kurt Angle is injured and can't compete tonight. Borash then asks him what he thinks about Kevin Nash arriving with Scott Steiner tonight. Joe has a confused look on his face and then walks off angry.
