Backstage, Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Gail Kim, who says that she never thought this day would come and that Bound For Glory 2017 would be her last time in the ring, but Tessa Blanchard's attitude and abuse of authority has brought her back. While she admits she has respect for Tessa, she has respect for Taya Valkyrie, too. She plans to call it down the middle when it comes to crowning the Knockouts Champion.

Taya Valkyrie beats Tessa Blanchard to win the Impact Wrestling Knockouts Championship! During the match, Tessa Blanchard inadvertently nails Gail Kim with a forearm before hitting the Buzzsaw. Tessa, noticing this, grabs the Knockouts Championship to use it as a weapon, and Gail Kim ttries to take it away only to inadvertently nail Taya with the title. Nevertheless, Taya kicks out, and Tessa shoves Gail Kim not once, but twice. Gail shoves Tessa into Taya, who nearly wins on a schoolkid pin. A little later on, Tessa grabs Gail Kim by the neck, but Gail escapes out of it and hits Tessa with Eat Defeat, allowing Taya to hit Road To Valhalla to win the title.

Backstage, Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Johnny Impact, who did not expect to cheer "The Machine" Brian Cage after the last time they were in the ring and that tonight is about becoming World Champion. There are two types of champions: paper champions and fighting champions, and he has been a fighting champion who has taken on all comers. Tonight is Cage's shot to become World Champion, and while Cage is committed, it is about who has the biggest heart, not the fittest body.

Johnny Impact retains the Impact Wrestling World Championship against "The Machine" Brian Cage. During the match, Cage shoves Survivor Season 37 castmate Davie Rickenbacker, and the referee is distracted by Season 37 winner Nick Wilson, who is trying to jump the guardrail as Cage hits the Drill Claw. This gives Johnny the time to recover and kick out, and when Cage goes for a vertical suplex off the bottom rope, Johnny breaks out of it and somehow pins Cage for the win. After the match, Cage takes the World Championship away from the referee and dejectedly throws it to Johnny before leaving. Taya Valkyrie then shows up and hugs Johnny before celebrating with him. As Taya and Johnny are on the stage, Johnny is suddenly attacked by Killer Kross. Taya tries to fight him, but Killer Kross powerbombs her into a couple of people near the stage to end the show.
