Eddie Edwards starts tonight's show. He thanks the fans, his friends and his family from the bottom of his heart, saying he could not have won the TNA World Heavyweight Championship without them. Even though Lashley beat him in the past, he knew Lashley was beatable, and never thought about giving up becoming World champ once. He says he refuses to run and hide and that he will be a fighting champion, and that he will represent Impact Wrestling to the best of his ability. One will have to kill him to take the World title. Lashley shows up and chokes out Eddie Edwards, then hits him with a belly-to-belly suplex and lays him out with a Spear when he fights back. Lashley tells Eddie that if he will not run and hide, then he will punish him. He demands his World title rematch and calls for a referee, and is about to smash a steel chair into Eddie when Ethan Carter III and Moose rush in to make the save. Lashley heads back to the back.
The Tribunal (Basile Baraka and Baron Dax) want to speak to Billy Corgan, but Aiden O'Shea tells them to make an appointment. He tells them that Billy Corgan is not impressed with them, and that they need to do something impressive before they even think about speaking to Billy.

The Broken Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero, the latter of whom is dressed normally) show up. Matt says that tonight is a night of celebration. They won the tag team titles, and Brother Nero repaid his debt to him. He now says his broken brilliance and Brother Nero's personalities have established that they are the greatest tag team of all space and time, beyond "The Bucks of Youth" and "The Day of the New." They celebrate the deletion of the tag team title reign of Decay (Crazzy Steve and Abyss), then Matt has a premontion: the next challengers to their tag titles will be determined tonight. They then celebrate with a "delete, obsolete" chant before The Tribunal (Basile Baraka and Baron Dax) run in through the crowd and attack The Broken Hardys, with Baraka kicking Brother Nero in the nuts.
