Sacrifice Recap
Monday May 15, 2006
Tonight’s show started off with a major technical glitch that caused the audience to miss the ending of the first match. The World X Cup tournament ended in a tie that will require a match on Thursday night to determine which country will win the tournament. Kevin Nash made his return, Sting had another partner turn his back on him, and two titles were up for grabs.
