[4] Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) announced in early October 2005 that their January PPV would once again be called Final Resolution, until they pulled this release from their website.

[7] A promotional poster for the show was released prior by TNA featuring Christopher Daniels and Samoa Joe.

The background to this match began at TNA's Genesis PPV event on November 13, 2005 where Cage made his debut proclaiming he wanted to win the NWA World Heavyweight Championship held by Jarrett.

[9] TNA advertised a major announcement to take place at their previous PPV event Turning Point on December 11, 2005.

[12] The TNA X Division Championship was defended at Final Resolution by then-champion Samoa Joe against the challenger Christopher Daniels.

[18] Team 3D made their return from injury at TNA's Bound for Glory PPV event on October 23, 2005 attacking Jarrett and AMW.

[21] Raven and NWA Championship Committee member Larry Zbyszko were involved in a rivalry heading into Final Resolution.

At Bound for Glory, Raven requested an NWA World Heavyweight Championship match but was denied by Zbyszko.

[10] On the December 17, 2005 episode of Impact!, Zbyszko announced that at Final Resolution Raven would have another opponent and if he won the bout then he gained a future NWA World Heavyweight Championship match.

Another contest was held, with The Latin American Exchange (Homicide and Konnan) defeating The Naturals (Andy Douglas and Chase Stevens) in 3 minutes and 50 seconds.

Waltman won the contest after forcing Raven face-first off of a ladder through a table with his signature X-Factor maneuver.

Mitchell interfered in the contest by distracting the referee, allowing Abyss to bash Rhino with a steel chain.

[23] Samoa Joe defended the TNA X Division Championship against Christopher Daniels in the eighth match of the show.

Midway through the contest, Joe avoided a moonsault by Daniels by casually walking away, a trademark action of his persona.

Daniels earned a near-fall after forcing Joe against the mat with a modified Death Valley Driver from the top of a padded turnbuckle.

Their fight spilled to the ringside area where Joe positioned Daniels' head against the guardrail and kicked it against the rail.

Styles threw in the towel for Daniels to stop the match at 15 minutes and 30 seconds, resulting in Joe being declared the victor by TKO.

Kim interfered by distracting the referee, allowing Jarrett to hit Cage in the groin and throw him to the ringside mat.

Jarrett bashed Sting in the face with the NWA World Heavyweight Championship belt and covered for a near-fall once the referee regained consciousness.

Afterwards, Sting forced Jarrett's head into the ring mat with his trademark Scorpion Death Drop maneuver and covered for the pinfall victory.

[10] TNA's next PPV event, Against All Odds, on February 12, 2006 was also ranked higher than Final Resolution; it received a rating of 7 out of 10 from Jason Clevett.

[26] Regarding the main event, Kapur said that "Sting looked good, but it remains to be seen if his return will be a turning point for the company in the long run.

"[23] TNA released a DVD counting down the top 50 moments in their history in 2007, with Sting's debut at Final Resolution ranking at number 2 on the compilation.

Since Cage had defeated Monty Brown at Turning Point to become number one contender he was in line for an NWA World Heavyweight Championship match.

[10] On the January 21 episode of Impact!, Larry Zybysko revealed an open contract for a future title match at Against All Odds.

[3] On the January 28 episode of Impact!, it was announced that Cage would face Jarrett for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Against All Odds.

[30] He held the championship until TNA's Slammiversary PPV event on June 18 when Jarrett won a King of the Mountain match for the title that also involved Cage, Sting, Abyss, and Ron Killings.

[32] Sting did not appear in TNA until their Destination X PPV event on March 12 when he appeared after the main event to save Cage from an assault by America's Most Wanted, Abyss, Alex Shelley, Team Canada, Jarrett, and Brown before being attacked himself by the debuting Scott Steiner.

[34] Sting then teamed with Styles, Killings and Rhino as part of a team referred to as Sting's Warriors against Jarrett's Army, composed of Jarrett, Steiner, and America's Most Wanted in a Four-on-Four Lethal Lockdown match at TNA's Lockdown PPV event on April 23.

[30] As for other rivalries after Final Resolution, Rhino and Abyss fought in a rematch on the January 28 episode of Impact!
