Eddie says he's never backed down from a fight, and he doesn't plan to now. He tells Lashley that if he is pissed off now, he should wait until later tonight when he is World champion. Lashley says that won't happen tonight, because the underdog only wins in movies. Eddie tells Lashley that wrestling is his life, and Lashley attacks him.

Matt tells Jeff that his Impact Wrestling contract is terminated, and then tells him to be gone. Jeff starts to leave, but Matt tells Jeff to stop and turn around, and tells him he hopes he will not find joy "in the afterlife," but tells him he might get a job in the WWE or New Japan, and decides to keep him in TNA and own him as his personal, obsolete mule that he will work to death. Matt says he is broken, but he will never be broke. He tells Jeff that he will find out deletion is a fate worse than death.
