Karen Jarrett shows up to start the show. She is embarrassed and ashamed to talk about Maria Kanellis-Bennett leaving the company, saying that her spot being open has caused some extremely ugly and unprofessional behavior in the Knockouts locker room to the point that bullying is taking place. Karen calls out Sienna, who shows up. Karen says she has not heard one positive word about her anywhere, and says her behavior, actions and words will not be tolerated. Sienna says that Allie is to blame for her being called out, but Karen tells her to step back. Sienna says she got here on her own talent, not through who she married. Karen tells Sienna she doesn't have a clue who she got here, and admits she has done some things in Impact that she regrets, and gives Sienna the chance she never had: 15 seconds to apologize to her face. As Karen counts down, a man shows up and tells Karen to wipe the smile off her face. He introduces himself as "KM," and says Sienna is his cousin and family. He demands Sienna be given respect, and gives Karen 15 seconds to respond to him and his family. Braxton Sutter and Allie shows up, and Sutter brawls with KM until KM and Sienna retreat. Karen Jarrett then puts KM in a match with Sutter later tonight.

Jeremy Borash interviews Rosemary, who says the age of shadow is all-consuming and that the darkness has spawned the greatest Knockouts champ of all time. She says that the Knockouts Division should accept their inevitable decay...then ODB shows up and introduces herself to Rosemary, saying Rosemary wouldn't be standing in the ring if it wasn't for her. She toasts Rosemary for being the champion, but says she will take the title and toast herself. Rosemary leaves the ring saying ODB feels worthy, but "The Hive" disagrees. She is obviously not interested in the match, and the Knockout Division shows up to force her back in the ring. Madison Rayne wants a shot at the Knockouts title, while Brandi Rhodes wants a piece of Rosemary. Diamante, on the other hand, wants to fight, and all the Knockouts have an impromptu fight.
Ethan Carter III shows up. He apologizes for the end of last week's show, saying that Impact has changed and that he must change with it by reasserting his past dominance. He says he must become "the real EC3." He says he will win the World title for a third time and join an elite squad of multiple-time world champs, then "Cowboy" James Storm shows up, asking why he wasn't mentioned. EC3 says Storm won the world title once. Storm tells EC3 that he built Impact while EC3 was in high school and college, then says both of them want to be World champ. Storm then says they both want the World title, and EC3 says the fans should decide who gets the title shot against Lashley. Both men agree on this.
