Backstage, Heath meets with Josh Alexander and Rich Swann.

Alexander agrees, then Heath mentions that Scott D'Amore has allowed him to challenge any member of Honor No More to a street fight tonight. Swann thanks Heath for taking responsibility, then warns them that where one member goes, they all go, and they have to watch each other's backs tonight, but Heath says he has to do this on his own.

After everyone proves their loyalty, Deaner and Young attack them all, and everyone maintains their hand signal as they do this.

We see a man and a woman in a kitchen. The woman tells the man that their son is not his, and the man asks who the father is. Suddenly, Joe Hendry shows up and everyone claps to his theme song. Joe Hendry is returning to Impact Wrestling soon.

Heath is in the ring. He says that Impact has given him the opportunity to have a street fight with any member of Honor No More, and that he is ready to get things started. He calls out Honor No More, and PCO accepts the challenge. As PCO heads to the ring, the rest of Honor No More stops him. Eddie says this match is not going to happen, but Heath tells PCO not to listen to Eddie. Eddie asks PCO who he thinks he is, but Heath says he would die a rebel than live as a coward. Eddie tells PCO his thoughts and decisions do not belong to him; they belong to Honor No More and to him. Heath says PCO is supposed to be a monster and not human, but he looks like Eddie's lap dog. PCO heads down the ramp, and Vincent has to reason with Eddie. The match begins, and Vincent stays at ringside while the rest of Honor No More head to the back.

Heath beats PCO in a street fight with a Wake Up Call into a pile of metal folding chairs. During the match, after Heath throws PCO into a giant pile of metal folding chairs in the crowd, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett, Eddie Edwards and Kenny King surround the ring, but Josh Alexander and Rich Swann show up and force them to retreat. Alexander puts Eddie in the ankle lock until Taven saves Eddie. Vincent tries to attack Heath from behind, but Heath hits him with the Wake-Up Call. PCO then rises from the pile of giant chairs with chairs all over his body, and he throws chairs into the ring to continue the street fight.

The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) beat Aussie Open (Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis) to challenge for the Impact Wrestling World Tag Team Championships at Victory Road.

She then tells Gia Miller to go away so they can find Killer Kelly. Suddenly, Savannah evans is mysteriously taken out, and when Tasha looks for her, Killer Kelly shows up and says she knows Tasha wants to play. Tasha tells her they will play at Victory Road.

We hear from "The Quintessential Diva" Gisele Shaw, who says that Mickie James has had a great career, but tomorrow, she makes the most important contribution of her career when she passes the torch to her. She says that while people will be upset that Mickie will be retiring, she will be doing Mickie a favor when she goes back home to her family and takes the spotlight of being the best mother in the world, as the spotlight will always belong to her.

Scott D'Amore is in the ring to moderate a "hold harmless" contract signing for the Barbed Wire Massacre match between Steve Maclin, Moose and Sami Callihan at Victory Road. He says all three men are signing a waiver in case anything happens in this dangerous match. Moose is introduced first, followed by Steve Maclin, followed by Sami Callihan. When Sami's music hits, Sami fails to show up. Moose says it does not matter is Sami is here or not, as he has to be in the match, and tells Maclin that Sami will call their match "hell on earth" before telling him that his military experience is nothing compared to being in the ring with him and going through hell. Maclin tells Moose he has been turned into "a coddled prizefighter" and says Moose has not seen what he has seen or done what he has done, then says he is lucky he has all four of his limbs and that men like him transcend matches like this. He says that instead of "hell on earth," it will be "mayhem for all." After Maclin signs the contract, Sami suddenly shows up and apologizes for his tardiness, as he could not find his favorite chair: a metal folding chair that is in his hands. Sami sits down in the chair before admitting that Moose and Maclin took him off guard and that they made a grave mistake, as he is the master of puppets. He says that he has them both at each others' throats like he wants him, then Maclin tells him to shut up and sign the contract. Sami then pulls out a pen covered in barbed wire, then Moose and Maclin attack Sami with the pen. Moose gets Sami in the Tree of Woe position, and when Maclin goes for Caught In The Crosshairs on Sami, Moose hits Maclin with a Spear. Sami is bleeding as Moose sets up a table, but when Moose goes for the Spear, Sami puts him through the table, then hits him with the Cactus Driver '97. Sami then finds the contract and signs it with his own blood.
