Melina def. Maria
Jeff Hardy def. Shawn Michaels
AUSTIN, Texas Things didnt exactly go the way Mr. McMahon had planned. The Chairman arranged a No Disqualification Match between him and Hornswoggle, hoping to teach his bastard son a lesson in tough love. But it was Mr. McMahon who was taught a lesson
in humility.
Moments after the bell rang, the Chairman heaved his reluctant son to the mat and berated him around the ring. But that was before the arrival of Hornswoggles protector, Finlay, who flat-out ignored Mr. McMahons threats of termination were he to interfere.
Instead, the man who loves to fight ignored the possibility of losing his job a WWE opportunity he had spent years trying to earn and not being able to provide for his family. He chose to honor his friendship with Hornswoggle at all costs and stung Mr. McMahon with a crack of his shillelagh. As the Chairman lie writhing in pain, Hornswoggle landed a Tadpole Splash for the win.
Mr. McMahon, however, would not suffer in silence. While being attended to by medical personnel, the dazed Chairman refused to fire Finlay, and instead he arranged a Steel Cage Match with Hornswoggle next week. Photos | Video

Ready, Willing, Able
If Mark Henry sought retribution from last weeks FU by John Cena, the Worlds Strongest Man came up disappointingly short. Having recovered from his torn pectoral muscle, the former WWE Champion locked Henry in an STFU until he tapped out. Watching from ringside, Randy Orton couldnt help but notice as his No Way Out opponent exclaimed, I am 100 percent! Story | Photos | Video
Kneed Help
Last week, Mr. Kennedy offered Ric Flair a chance to forfeit their Career Threatening Match at No Way Out. This week, the 16-time World Champion told the loudmouth from Green Bay, Wis. that not only will he be there, hes set on winning. Mr. Kennedy left his mark before he left the ring by kicking the Nature Boy in his already ginger knee. Photos
Love Hurts
Maria seemed on the verge of defeating Melina again this week when, suddenly, Jillian distracted her with a lip lock on her beau, Santino Marella to allow the Latina beauty to prevail. But Marias misery didnt end there. Santino issued an ultimatum: She has one week to choose either him or posing for Playboy. Photos | Video
Non-stop Flight
Jeff Hardy continued to fly high leading up to No Way Out. The Rainbow-haired Warrior tangled with The Showstopper, Shawn Michaels, in a match just six days before the two meet again in an Elimination Chamber Match. With his hard-fought victory, Hardy kept the momentum rolling.
