source: WWE.com - It would seem SmackDown! GM Vickie Guerrero has a mighty reach - evidenced by her ability to book Kane, the current ECW Champion, against MVP, a wrestler on her own roster with whom she is most displeased. Vickie sought to put MVP in his place after he used his VIP Lounge spot to voice his grievances regarding her, his perceived misuse on SmackDown!, and his desire to go anywhere where his talents would be recognized and utilized.

The Big Red Machine quickly deflated MVP's hot air in a match that had the playa bouncing all over the ring. Porter saw an out when Kane clotheslined him over the top rope and the ref began to slow ten-count. After teasing a return to the ring, MVP took the count out, turning his back on Kane and the ring.

Almost immediately, Mark Henry stormed to the ring to get revenge for the double chokeslam Kane and the Big Show laid on him earlier in the week on ECW. The World's Strongest Man hit the World's Strongest Slam on the ECW Champion, leaving him lying in the ring.
