Junkyard Dog: “So there’s talk about a Thanksgiving card? I see you up there Watts, you gave me my first big break in this sport 13 years ago, and me and the Hacksaw took care of business against the Sheepherders. I know you don’t really owe me nuthin’ Cowboy, but you owe my man the Hacksaw. We won fair and square at The Return in New Orleans, now we ask for the match we deserve Thanksgiving night!
Hacksaw: “HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Bill Watts everyone betted against us, they said, JYD and Hacksaw? They are old! They are beaten down! But we took the win in New Orleans and I say me and JYD deserve to work our way up the ladder! HOOOOOOOOOO!

Pretape from the Z-Man and RVD!
Rob Van Dam: “So the cat is out of the bag, Tom Zenk, there will be a big Thanksgiving card coming and I think you know that I know that we know we want to be part of it! So Bill Watts who will it be, since we already beat Matt Bourne and Love Machine. The Sheepherders? Butch Reed and Gary Albright? Doc and Gordy? Or hey, maybe we are up for a title match with Hashimoto and Severn?
“Whoever it is, RVD and the Z-Man are here in Mid-South, and ready for any challenge you got for us, right Z-Man?
Tom: “Rob Van Dam is 100% right! We have been up and down Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana, beating all that Mid-South has placed in front of us, and while we know the tag team division is DEEP here, but this card on Thanksgiving will be the biggest stage of them all to prove we are deserving of being #1 IN THE MID-SOUTH! YEAH!

Bill: “Bob Caudle, I don’t know about you but I am convinced of a few things: Booker T HAS earned his right to challenge Steve Austin for the World title Thanksgiving Night, and Rob Van Dam and the Z-Man, while maybe not YET title challenge worthy, have earned the right to get a match that same day which will seal their fate! I also am convinced Junkyard Dog and Hacksaw Dugan deserve a chance to work their way up as well, how will all this be settled?
“Finally, I am 100% convinced we are only 7 weeks away from Thanksgiving night, and Terry Funk has demanded a match of Abdullah the Butcher’s choosing, in return for 5 minutes of Todd Gordon's time if he wins, and its ready for the Diamond Mine to put up or shut up!
