Tonight's program begins with Rated RKO meeting backstage. It didn't take long for Randy Orton to learn of Edge's jealousy-driven plan to take him out of Money in the Bank III after the Legend Killer had qualified last night on Raw. Edge swears he has Orton's back vs. Bobby Lashley, but does he?

8-man battle royal: New Breed (Elijah Burke, Matt Striker, Marcus Cor Van, & Kevin Thorn w/Ariel) vs. The ECW Originals (Tommy Dreamer, Sandman, Sabu, & Rob Van Dam).

It's confirmed that these 8 will meet in a tag team match at Wrestlemania 23. The order of elimination:

1. Sandman (by Matt Striker)
2. Cor Van (by Sabu & Van Dam)
3. Sabu (by Thorn)
4. & 5. Thorn & Van Dam (simultaneous elimination)
6. Striker (by Dreamer)
7. Burke (by Dreamer)
Winner: Tommy Dreamer, although the Originals as a team were announced as the winners.

Sabu, Van Dam, & Sandman came back out to celebrate, and were soon joined by Mick Foley, who came out not only to plug "The Hardcore Diaries", but also to cut a promo in support of the Originals for Wrestlemania, saying he'll be up in the bleachers at Ford Field. Foley started an "ECW! ECW!" chant as he left.

Extreme Expose is out, wearing matching outfits for a change. Their routine, however, is interrupted by the arrival of Gene Snitsky, who scares off the girls. Snitsky vs. Danny Jackson & Michael Deegan.Total squash, quick & painful. A boot to the head finished Deegan.Winner: Snitsky.

Bobby Lashley vs. Randy Orton (w/Edge). We're not even a couple of minutes into the match, and already there are issues with the former World tag team champs. Edge wanted to get involved, but was cut off by ref Scott Armstrong. Orton, after taking a clothesline from Lashley, slid out to the floor to confront Edge. I have a feeling that decision is going to cost Orton by the time this thing's over. After the first break, Orton has gained control of the match with a Boston Crab, but Lashley makes the ropes, forcing a break. Orton hits a over-the-back neckbreaker, but can't put the champ away. Edge grabs the ECW title and starts for the ring, but Armstrong has seen enough and tosses out the Rated R Superstar. The knowing smirk tells the story. Edge might've planned this all along, and now Orton must fend for himself the rest of the way as we take one last break. Well, it's back and forth the rest of the way, as Lashley hit a belly-to-back suplex on the floor, but ended up eating the steel steps soon after. Orton got back in control, but not for long. Lashley battled back and got out of a 2nd Boston Crab with a rope break. Two corner spears set up the Dominator 2.0 (running powerslam) to finish off Orton.Winner: Bobby Lashley. Post-match, Vince McMahon came out, angry that the champion won yet again, but not a word was spoken as the insane chairman stood on the ramp confronting Lashley to end the show.
