Petey Williams and Johnny Impact are talking backstage when Alberto El Patron says he is teaming with them only because he is being told to, and tells Impact he is fighting a battle he cannot win.

Eli Drake and Chris Adonis tell Jimmy Jacobs that they have their match in the bag backstage. When Eli asks if they're good, Jimmy simply says yes.

Jimmy Jacobs is revealed to be Eli Drake and Chris Adonis' partner for the next match...almost. He says "the princess is here," and says despite what other people say, he is a good guy and he is here to help. He says Eli and Adonis need help and another man on their team. He promised them he would get them a partner, but he did not. He got him something better: a savage who is walking proof that not all men are created equal: Kongo Kong, whom Jacobs calls "the new monster of Impact Wrestling.:

Alberto El Patron, Johnny Impact and Petey Williams beat Eli Drake, Chris Adonis and Kongo Kong. During the match, Kongo Kong powerbombs Petey Williams over the guardrail and into some fans before taking him tot he back at the behest of Jimmy Jacobs.

Moose and "The Cowboy" James Storm show up. Moose says American Top Team is starting to piss him off, and Storm says AT&T is pissing him off too because his Internet is not working. After Moose reminds him that he is talking about American Top Team, he says he had Lashley beat in a one-on-one match until they jumped in, and that he had Lashley beat in a tag team match only for them to jump in again. When he had Lashley beat at Bound For Glory, they jumped in a third time. He now believes that Lashley can't beat him one-on-one, and says he should change his nickname from "Walking Armageddon" to "Bitch Boy Bobby." Lashley and Dan Lambert show up, and Lashley tells Moose to shut up, and says he will fight anybody at anytime, and Moose is not an exception. The crowd chants "Bitch Boy Bobby." Lashley tells Moose that if he wants to fight him, it will happen, but only on his terms and there is nothing he can do about it. Storm tells Dan Lambert he respects what American Top Team does, even if he does not like him, as they are one of the greatest camps in MMA, but when they come into professional wrestling and disrespect them, he has a problem, and now he is looking at "a big ol' bag of poo-poo." Every time Dan Lambert speaks, Storm calls it "poo-poo," and the crowd chants it. Storm then tells Dan Lambert he wants him one-on-one. Lambert says he cannot figure out why professional wrestling chose to pick a fight with MMA, and he will never figure out why American Top Team was singled out. Storm says he wants Lambert one-on-one so he can kick the shit out of him. Lambert says if he wants to prove himself against other sport, he should go down the street and slap the Ottawa Senators. He then says he had to stand on the ramp a few weeks ago and hear him go on and on about his love for pro wrestling and the fans as well as how he puts his body on thel ine and how he lives for the fans. He says it make sit want to puke, but he now sees this as an opportunity. He notes that Storm has been in the company since day one and has shown considerable staying power, and says this makes Storm the face of Impact Wrestling, which in turn makes him "the head of the snake." If he can cut the head, then Impact Wrestling can "no longer sell its snake oil." He says that if he wants to face him, he must put his career on the line, and if he loses, he has to leave Impact forever. Storm tells Dan Lambert he has a deal, but after he kicks his ass, he, Lashley and the rest of American Top Team can get out of his company. He then says the only thing he will hear for the rest of his life is "Sorry about your damn luck." Before he can finish that statement, however, Lambert spits in his face, and Lashley hits Moose with a cheap shot. As Lambert directs traffic, Storm threatens to hit him with the Last Call Superkick. Suddenly, KM gets in the ring, but he falls victim to the Last Call after a brief brawl. Storm then finishes his statement after Lambert retreats.

"The Cowboy" James Storm will face Dan Lambert in a Career vs. Career Match in three weeks.

Laurel Van Ness beats Rosemary to become the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Champion! This happens after Laurel Van Ness shoves the ref, ducks the mist from Rosemary, gets it on her hands and hits Rosemary with an Unprettier from the top rope after rubbing the mist into Rosemary's eyes.

An irritated Sami Callihan eventually finds Konnan. Konnan tells him that life's greatest tragedies are getting old too fast and getting wise too late, and thought he was smarter than he comes across as. He tells him he is ignorant and oblivious to that. Callihan says he's head enough and says there is a new kid in town, but Konnan says he has something he wants: the tag team titles, as he is losing a lot of money. Konnan wants a tag team title match. Callihan accepts, but on the condition that if the Latin-American Xchange loses, they have to leave Impact. Konnan tells him that if he reneges on this deal, he will screw up his entire life and those of everyone he knows and he will be so toxic that they would work with very trashy celebrities before they ever work with him again. He then tells him this is business, not personal. They shake hands, then Callihan throws a fireball at Konnan's eyes, blinding him. Callihan then tells him "Now it's personal, bitch!"
