In which Nitro and Melina decide he's the weak link, turn on him, betray and assault him and leave him to go back to Raw where they say Nitro can continue to flourish on his own without being dragged down back on this second rate show. Plus by making it look like Melina is pulling the strings here ultimately it enhances her character as the manipulative pants wearing manager.
Great heat, and a great boost before returning to singles work. Then they'd get off with a bang for the Foley fued and Mercury could change his gimmick and work as a face on smackdown.
It also leaves the door open for them to reunite way in the future (if need be). In which case she's the reason they split up and they can be reunited after Nitro recongizes her coniving and they split, reuniting him and Mercury to take on a new team she has jumped ship too.

That actually sounds really good.
When Joey Mercury was kicked out of MNM at Judgment Day last year, I was hoping that he'd return and feud with Johnny Nitro. They brought them back on the same page, which was good, though. Hopefully we do get to see a Johnny Nitro vs. Joey Mercury feud down the line.
It'd actually do MNM a lot of good if Nitro beat Foley, then turned on Mercury, then Mercury beat Nitro with Foley lending moral support. It makes Nitro look better than Foley, but it also brings Mercury up to that level, and you have two potential main event players on your hands.
