We see footage from earlier today of "The Cowboy" James Storm and Lashley entering the building, then we see a video package about both men and their match this week.
The Latin-American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz) beat Joe Coleman and Jake Holmes. After the match, Konnan says it's time for a power grab, and that taking the Impact Wrestling tag team titles is the first step. He introduces us to the other members of LAX, then Decay (Crazzy Steve, Abyss, Rosemary) show up and both factions brawl.
Karen Jarrett makes an appearance. She says tonight is a very momentous occasion as they are coming to the fans live tonight. Since the ownership change, they are retooling things to be the best show they can be. She is overjoyed to announced that Global Force Wresting and Impact Wrestling have officially merged, and that Impact is working with other companies to bring top talent to Impact. She also says tonight will be the night of champions, as three title matches will happen tonight. Rosemary defends the Knockouts title against ODB; Trevor Lee will defend the X Division against Andrew Everett; and Lashley will defend the World Heavyweight Championship against "The Cowboy" James Storm. Suddenly, Sonjay Dutt makes a surprise appearance, and says it is great to be back in the Impact Zone. He re-introduces himself to the fans, talks about his time in Impact way back when, and says he not only wants the X Division title match to be the main event, but he wants a piece of the action so he can win the title. Everett shows up, and while he respects him, Trevor Lee and the X Division title are his and his only. Gregory Shane Helms and Trevor Lee show up, saying Dutt and Everett are ones to dictate policy as he tells them they have to go through him for a title shot against Trevor Lee. Helms tells Dutt he sucks if he's never won a title on Impact, and tells Karen he runs the X Division. Bruce Prichard shows up, tells Helms he doesn't run a thing, and says Sonjay Dutt has good ideas. Not only will the X Division title match be the main event, but Sonjay Dutt will be in it along with three other men to make it a six-way dance. Helms and Trevor Lee brawl with Sonjay Dutt and Everett, but Dutt and Everett send them running. Both men then try to pick up the X Division title at the same time, starting a staredown between the two.
We hear from Impact Wrestling veteran and alumni Crimson. He tells us about his life now as well as his life before professional wrestling, when he signed up for the military. We then see that the Veterans of War are coming to Impact Wrestling next week.
Rosemary retains the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Championship against ODB.
Swoggle is seen in the stands. It is announced that LAX (Santana and Ortiz) will defend the Impact Wrestling World Tag Team Championships will be defended against Decay (Crazzy Steve and Abyss) next week in a Street Fight.
Mackenzie Mitchell finds out from Bruce Prichard and Karen Jarrett that Suicide will be the fourth man in the X Division title match. Sienna then shows up and confronts Karen Jarrett. She's not happy about the merger with Global Force Wrestling, and wants to know if Karen Jarrett is hiding the GFW Women's Champion from her. Karen says she is hiding nobody, and that the GFW Women's champ will be here, and that she had better be ready.
We see a video package of the war between Sienna and Allie and what's happened so far.
Kongo Kong beats Chris Silvio.
"The Cowboy" James Storm says Lashley can't sleep at night as he is afraid of losing the Impact Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship. He says he is the best in the company, and that he will take the title from him tonight.
Alberto El Patron is in Arizona. He says he will be keeping an eye on tonight's World title match as he wants a piece of the winner.
Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Magnus, the current Global Force Wrestling Champion. He was here to help an old friend out until he heard about Alberto El Patron, he became cross. He says Alberto El Patron did nothing to earn a title shot, and that he himself got the pinfall on last week's 8-man tag match. He will be watching the Impact Wrestling World title match as well, to see who he will be facing.
When Lashley makes his way to the ring before the next match, Josh Mathews accompanies him before guesting on commentary for the rest of the show.
Lashley retains the Impact Wrestling World Heavyweight Championship against "The Cowboy" James Storm. During the match, Ethan Carter III shows up to watch the match, and yells at Josh Mathews to stop him from giving Lashley a beer bottle to use as a weapon against Storm. Near the end, Lashley sends Storm into the referee, knocking the referee out. Storm then takes the beer bottle from earlier and is about to use it as a weapon when EC3 gets in the ring, takes the bottle and smashes it into Lashley's forehead before shrugging and leaving, allowing Lashley the victory.
Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Dutch Mantell, who confirms that Desmond Xavier is the fifth man in the X Division title match, and if you don't know who he is, you'll find out tonight. As for the sixth man, we'll have to wait for the X Division title match to find out who that is.
We see footage of Chris Adonis beating Moose with the Adonis Lock in a match in Border City Wrestling. Mackenzie Mitchell then interviews Moose, who hasn't forgotten what Adonis has done to him in Canada and Mexico, and challenges him to a match for the Impact Wrestling Grand Championship next week. Adonis shows up with his arm in a sling, and says it is the result of Moose assaulting him. Adonis does know a man who will take his challenge for next week: Davey Richards, who attacks Moose from behind as Angelina Love eggs him on before telling Moose they'll see him next week.
We see a video package of what's been happening as of late between Trevor Lee and Andrew Everett.
The sixth man in the Impact Wrestling X Division Championship match is revealed to be Low Ki, who returns wearing his Hitman-inspired outfit that he has worn in Japan. Also, Swoggle is seen in the crowd again as everyone makes their entrances.
Low Ki beats Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, Suicide, Desmond Xavier and Sonjay Dutt in a six-way dance to win the Impact Wrestling X Division Championship for a fifth time. After the match, Da Pope and Jeremy Borash finally had enough of Josh Mathews after he tells them to stop congratulating Low Ki and be impartial, completely oblivious to the fact that he tried to help Lashley in the World title match from earlier tonight. Da Pope tells Mathews to go to hell, while Borash finally punches Mathews in the face after Mathews tells Borash "What are you gonna do? Hit me?"
