1. Steve Williams & Terry Gordy vs Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi (clips, from AJPW)
2. INT: Terry Gordy
3. Recap of The Thrillseekers and Heavenly Bodies
4. INT:  Jim Cornette & Heavenly Bodies - Cornette is sick and tired of hearing that The Thrillseekers are ready for the Heavenly Bodies, that The Thrillseekers are going to have major win over a major team.  They’re going to rue the day that they humiliated him and embarrassed him on TV.  Those guys who jumped them in the parking lot got a bit of revenge, but not as much as he wants because he is greedy.  He doesn’t see any reason a team like the Heavenly Bodies, who’ve been everywhere, been to the top of the mountain, dominated Smoky Mountain Wrestling, been to the World Wrestling Federation, done everything and beat everybody would roll over and play dead for a couple of stinking Canadians.  Tom Prichard says that you are looking at the top tag team in all of wrestling; the Armstrong’s, the Fantastics, the Furnas’ couldn’t get the job done, while the Rock & Roll Express may have won one battle but they won the war.  Cornette says that they’re going to curse the day that they came to SMW because the Heavenly Bodies are coming back.  The Thrillseekers may have beaten a few teams, done a few things and impressed a couple of pre-pubescent little females, but when they get in the ring with the Heavenly Bodies they’re going to have to fight, scratch, dig, claw and do everything they can think of to keep their career, health and sanity intact.  Only once it’s over are they going to find out if they’ve got the guts, the heart and the desire to be on top of the mountain, or whether they’ll just be another couple of fancy looking stepping stone.  Cornette always seems much more fired up, or as if he is simply enjoying it more when he is with the Bodies as opposed to Bruiser Bedlam, Killer Kyle or whomever.
5. INT: The Thrillseekers - they say that for ten years the Rock & Roll Express have been a thorn in Jim Cornette’s side and come the Night of Legends they’ll be the boot in his ass as there is going to be a changing of the guard.  Jericho says that when the Heavenly Bodies attacked him in the parking lot it was the worst decision of their lives and come the 8/5 they get a whole week to avenge what they did to them.
6. Recap of the contract signing for the Brian Lee & Chris Candido vs Rock & Roll Express ‘Hair vs Hair’ match
7. INT: Tammy Fytch & Brian Lee & Chris Candido - Tammy says that it’s all coming to an end this week.  At the Night of Legends she has to be handcuffed to that genetic defect Ricky Gibson and the very next night at Fire on the Mountain her hair is on the line against Ricky Morton’s in a tag team title match.  She’s come to the conclusion that everyone is jealous of her because she’s at the top.  Everyone wants to be where she is but they can’t, so they’re going to do everything possible to humiliate her and make her life miserable so that maybe she will step down.  Well not a chance as they’re not going to win and she’s not going to lose her hair.
8. INT: Rock & Roll Express - they say that this Friday they are coming to win the tag team titles and this Saturday they’re coming to cut some hair.
9. SMW Night of Legends update - Les Thatcher profiles Ron Fuller, Phil Hickerson and Sam Bass.  After this we get replays of previous profiles.
