Nunzio & Vito vs Psicosis & Super Crazy (The Mexicools)
Josh calls this the rubber match with each team holding 2,000 wins in the series. The FBI are yet to beat the Mexicools for the record. Apparently Tony Chimel doesn't know Juvi's gone as Psicosis and Super Crazy are announced as members of the Mexicools when they're the only ones left. Vito begins with a side headlock on Psicosis who sends Vito off the ropes but gets floored by a shoulder tackle. Vito hits a second and gets pumped up. Vito with a stepover, Psicosis leapfrogs then catches Vito with a dropkick. Psicosis with an armdrag, tag to Crazy, Psicosis winds up the arm and Crazy comes off the top rope with a double axehandle. Crazy yanks at the arm until Vito catches him with a knee and tags in Nunzio. Nunzio and Crazy block hiptoss attempts until Crazy counters into a monkey flip. Crazy hooks a leg tags in Psicosis and Nunzio receives a double rolling leg whip and Psicosis scores a nearfall. Crazy tags in and Nunzio gets whipped off the ropes caught and tossed to the mat then hit by a legdrop and moonsault press in sync. Crazy covers but Vito comes in and shoves Crazy at two. Crazy goes for a slam, Nunzio slips behind and pushes Crazy into a Vito punch and Crazy falls down allowing Nunzio to get a nearfall. Vito tags in and clubs Crazy then sends him off the ropes into a clothesline. Vito slams Crazy and nails a Vito (Vader) bomb and Psicosis pulls him off of a cover at two. Nunzio tags and the FBI perform a double make a wish on Crazy's legs before Nunzio lands punches and ties Crazy up in an abdominal stretch. Crazy feeds off the crowd so Nunzio clubs him down and sends off the ropes but Crazy jumps onto the second rope and connects with a dropkick on Nunzio. The referee lays a count on and at five Crazy makes the tag. Psicosis hits a tilt-a-whirl front facebuster on Nunzio then lands a backbodydrop on Vito. Psicosis drives a kick into Vito's gut then connects with an enziguiri kick. Crazy is motioned in and he grabs Nunzio's leg and he rolls Nunzio back into Psicosis who lifts Nunzio into a wheelbarrow position and the Mexicools drop Nunzio with a double faceplant. Psicosis covers 1-2-broken up by Vito. Psicosis takes Vito to the corner and Crazy is positioned in the opposite one with Nunzio and the FBI get whipped into one another. Vito instinctively backelbows Psicosis. Crazy skips past Vito and goes up top but Vito with a high kick drops Crazy to the outside. Vito then turns into a spinning heel kick from Psicosis and he rolls outside. Nunzio boots Psicosis' gut and lifts for a slam but Psicosis slips behind and delivers a tilt-a-whirl and hooks the leg 1-2-3. Vito can't make the save in time. Hey it's the same finish as last time as the Mexicools rack up another win and the FBI continue to go winless. Here Are Your Winners: PSICOSIS & SUPER CRAZY (THE MEXICOOLS).

Noble sends Coleman off the ropes, Noble puts his head down and Coleman surprises with a small package for two. Noble quickly hits a dropkick to the face to regain control and dusts his hands off.

Scotty goes for the W-O-R-M but just before connection Sylvan grabs the pants and pulls Scotty throat first into the second rope and he quickly takes advantage by hoisting Scotty up and dropping him to the mat with a TKO maneuver. Sylvan covers and that's enough for the 1-2-3. Sylvan qualifies for the Royal Rumble Match next Sunday. Here is Your Winner: SYLVAN. The crowd were really behind Scotty and several Scotty chants were evident throughout so I guess he's still over with his act that's lasted well over six years. I think he needs a new gimmick otherwise he'll remain Job Fodder. By the way where is Hardcore Holly these days? Is he injured or is he getting re-packaged?

Steve shills for Randy Orton vs Chris Benoit on SmackDown! this week before signing off to end the show.
