                    Willie Mack In-Ring Promo

                    He is mad that Ace Austin attacked Rich Swann. Mack says he’ll hold up Impact until they come out.

                    Willie Mack defeats Reno Scum

                    Willie Mack decided to wrestle a handicap match against Reno Scum. Thornstowe and Luster had the advantage from the beginning hitting pity city. Eventually Mack got his knees up with Thornstowe went for senton. Mack came back and hit a standing moonsault on Luster for a near fall. The numbers became too much and Reno Scum took back over, but Willie Mack sent Luster into the ropes knocking Thornstowe off the top rope. After a stunner and frog splash, Willie Mack got the pinfall victory.

                    Kylie Rae

                    Kylie Rae meets Gail Kim, and she is very excited. She also met Su Yung, and that appeared to be exciting too. Kiera Hogan came into the locker room to announce she would be facing Kylie Rae at Rebellion and Susy tonight.

                    Chris Bey defeats Daga

                    The early part of the match consisted of a lot of evasions until Daga hit a head scissors sending Chris Bey to the outside. When Daga attempted to walk the ropes, Chris Bey knocked him off and kicked Daga in the face. Bey held the advantage connecting with a back body drop before Impact went to commercial. Chris Bey maintained control using a body scissors until Daga made it to his feet and whipped him over with a standing snapmare followed by a gut wrench power bomb. When action spilled to the outside, Daga ran off the ramp and hit a cross body on Chris Bey (but he also smacked his face on the ground).

                    When Daga went for a sunset flip, Bey sat down hooking the legs and grabbing the ropes for a pinfall.

                    She beat the heck out of Bravo with a steel chair. She apparently went crazy

                    Rascalz Segment in the Treehouse

                    Apparently they all invited people over. TJP and Fallah Bahh came over and brought some food. XXXL also came. It was an awkward segment.

                    Havok defeats Madison Rayne

                    Havok used several power moves to get the early advantage over Madison Rayne. Things appeared to turn around when Rayne evaded a splash in the corner, but she wasted too much time and Havok came right back. Havok put Rayne away with a tombstone pile driver.

                    Tessa Confronted Eddie Edwards

                    She wanted to know why Edwards helped her last week. Eddie says sometimes when a person reaches out their hand, you should take it.

                    Ken Shamrock Interview

                    Ken Shamrock has had issues with his eyes, and he wasn’t sure if he would get his sight back. He says Sami has no remorse or respect for people trying to make a living in this business. The lights started to flicker and Shamrock went to look for Callihan.

                    Rhino and Tommy Dreamer defeat oVe

                    Rhino and Dreamer had the advantage for the early part of the match, but Fulton hopped up on the apron. The referee ejected Fulton and Dreamer continued to work over Jake Crist. As Dreamer hit the ropes, Dave Crist kicked him and oVe took control of the match. Dreamer caught Dave on the ropes and hit a superplex before getting the tag to Rhino. Rhino hit Jake Crist with a gore for the pinfall victory.

                    Post Match

                    Madman Fulton hit the rope and it turned into a 3 on 2 beat down.

                    Rosemary at the Bar

                    She found Johnny Swinger. He says that he has one of Young Bucks (specifically M. Jackson).

                    Kiera Hogan defeats Susie

                    Susie smacked Hogan and used a side headlock takeover twice to bring Hogan to the mat and then followed up with a bulldog. When Hogan got the advantage she hit several running strikes on Susie in the corner. After the swinging neck breaker, Hogan got the pinfall victory.

                    Backstage Segment with the North

                    Michael Elgin came by to ask one member of the North to step aside, so he could get his hands on Edwards and Tessa.

                    Backstage Interview with Tenille Dashwood

                    The North vs. Blanchard and Edwards

                    Edwards took the early advantage, and he tagged out to Tessa Blanchard. Alexander used his strength to manhandle Tessa. On Tessa’s third attempt, she finally knocked Alexander over the top rope. Tessa fell into the corner and Edwards tagged himself in and chopped both of the tag team champions in the corner. Edwards hit a suicide dive and Tessa flew off the top rope to the floor onto both members of the North as Impact went to commercial.

                    Back from the commercial, Tessa and Eddie had control over the North. It didn’t last very long though as The North took back over isolating Eddie Edwards. Tessa Blanchard came off the top rope with a cross body on both members of the north. She then hit a suicide dive on both members of the North and a cutter on Ethan Page for a near fall. Edwards hit Alexander with a blue thunder bomb and Tessa followed with a destroyer, but that only earned a two count.

                    Alexander caught Blanchard when she went for Magnum. They nearly put Tessa away, but Edwards broke up the pin. Tessa refused to tag out to Eddie Edwards and The North hit their finisher on Tessa and Josh Alexander pinned the World Champion.

                    Post Match

                    Elgin attacked Tessa Blanchard and this time Eddie Edwards didn’t make the save.
