Last week, Aiden Prince shocked his other five opponents, by winning a fatal six man match to determine the No. 1 contender to take on Jake Crist for the X-Division Championship that he will defend tonight. Havok stood tall over John E. Bravo, who was harassing her for two weeks or so, since she was stalking his very close friend, the Impact Knockouts Champion, Taya Valkyrie. After her match, Su Yung appeared on the screen saying some very disturbing things, which caused for Havok to run to the back. Will Yung distract Havok from her chance of possibly becoming the new Knockouts Champion tonight, as she goes one-on-one against Valkyrie? Trouble in paradise soon followed, as Eddie Edwards came out to the ring and attacked Ace Austin after his match against Stone Rockwell. Two weeks ago, Austin was trying to show Eddie's wife Alisha some of his "magic tricks." After the beatdown, Alisha confronted her husband, asking why he would do such a thing. Eddie fired back, asking her if Austin was her new "boyfriend?" Nothing more was said after that. Moose followed Eddie's lead, by attacking Rockwell after the match. Still mad that he hasn't been given any opportunities for the Impact World Championship, Moose just couldn't stop taking his frustrations out on Rockwell, which made Fallah Bahh come out and squash him, proving the point that no one wants to hear it from Moose anymore. Sami Callihan unleashed his monster Madman Man Fulton to take on Tessa Blanchard. Blanchard gave it her all to keep up with the 7' monster. With the help of Callihan, Blanchard was cornered, until Tommy Dreamer came to her aid. Though the match ended in a no contest, Blanchard proved once again that she is ready for anyone that Callihan or Impact Management throws at her.

The main event match of the night was The North vs. The Rascalz for the Impact World Tag Team Championships. Though The North retained their titles, they weren't off the hook just yet. Heading towards the back after the match, The North were attacked by Ortiz from LAX. Ortiz first thought that he had the upper hand since he attacked them blindly, however, it didn't take long for The North to gang up on him. As the episode came to an end, Daga came in to the save the day and help Ortiz, which created the buildup towards their match against The North tonight for the tag team titles.

Josh Mathews begins the show by welcoming fans to Impact Wrestling. The first title match is announced for the night.
