Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Frankie Kazarian, who says that in this life, the only person one must prove anything to is one's self, and he wanted to see if he could hang with today's Superstars; he not only hung, he won. He says that a skilled player does not sit on the bench, and while "Speedball" Mike Bailey is leading the charge in the X Division, he is playing the game that he created, and he will press the reset button and win the X Division Championship.

A yellow hoodied member of Violent By Design is quickly taken down by security before he can jump the guardrail.

Brian Myers retains the Impact Wrestling Digital Media Championship against Crazzy Steve after using the referee as a human shield in order to thumb Crazzy Steve in the eye. After the match, Myers says that he has turned the Digital Media Championship into the most prestigious title in Impact after three months, then says it is getting too easy before asking where the competition is. He then issues an open challenge for the Digital Media Championship at Bound For Glory.



Backstage, Johnny Swinger brings Zicky Dice to the old Swinger's Palace. The Swingerellas are still there, and the one that Swinger was egaged to is now married to John E. Bravo, who is also there. Jessicka and Taya Valkyrie show up, and Taya tells the Swingerella that she should have nothing to do with Bravo. Zicky Dice then finds a painting of Swinger on a horse as well as Hernandez's roll of money.

We see a man on a phone talk about his father dying and his wife having a child with another man, then he and some family members meet a lawyer regarding the father's estate. It turns out the entire estate has been left to Joe Hendry, who is returning to Impact Wrestling.

Backstage, Rosemary consults Father James Mitchell regarding Jessicka, saying she needs Havok back. Jessicka and Taya show up, with Taya saying she likes Jessicka and Jessicka saying she wants to prove herself. Taya tells Rosemary they have to be on the same page and that they must work together. Rosemary says there will be a lot of work to do as she quickly agrees.

Black Taurus beats Delirious.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Bobby Fish, who says he is here for competition and to pick a fight. He says the fight he is after is legitimate, and he would like to fight Josh Alexander. He says that Alexander is legitimate and that he has history with Eddie Edwards, then says the quickest path is a straight line and that the straight line is the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Match. He says that he will be waiting for whoever comes out of Bound For Glory with the Impact Wrestling World Championship.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Mia Yim, who admits she was shocked and a little hesitant towards Mickie James' challenge. She says that they both have history, and we see a match where they both faced each other early in Mia's career. Mia says she was intimidated in that match, but years later, she is not intimidated anymore, and that she will not take it easy on Mickie, and if she retires her, so be it. Gisele Shaw shows up and asks Mia what makes her think she can get the job done if she could not do it. Mia Yim says they will have to wait until Bound For Glory, then tells Shaw she can get the job done against her.

Honor No more head to the ring for their Victory Road victory celebration. Eddie Edwards says they are here to celebrate how successful a night Victory Road was for Honor No More, and says that if there are any doubts about them, Honor No More put them to rest and proved what they are capable of. Eddie says that he proved that he can beat "The Wealking Weapon" Josh Alexander, and that while Victory Road was a great night, there were still some setbacks, and addresses PCO losing to The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) and failing to soften them up for Matt Taven and Mike Bennett. He says that he was not supposed to step up to Heath and that he is trying to step up to him, then tells him that he will step up only when he tells him to, and to step back and shut his mouth otherwise. Vincent has to place a bag over PCO's head. Taven replaces the cube on the microphone with a purple one, saying that Impact Wrestling has done nothing for them and does not want them to survive. He says their trend of success has come to Impact and started with their tag titles. He says that he and Mike Bennett won the tag titles on pure talent, and proclaims that Eddie will pin Alexander again. Bennett says that Eddie is the first person to pin Alexander since last year when Moose did it, and Maria Kanellis-Bennett says that while Alexander had a match before losing to Moose, both men were fresh when Eddie won, making Eddie the better wrestler. We then see a video package of Eddie hitting Alexander with the Diehard Driver over and over, then Eddie says fortune favors the bold and that he made a bold decision to turn his back on Impact Wrestling to join Honor No More. He also says that fortune favors the righteous, and that he turned on everyone he fought for because they all turned their backs on him. He also says that fortune favors the righteous, and that he turned on everyone he fought for because they all turned their backs on him. Eddie says he won at Victory Road and will win again at Bound For Glory because what Honor No More fight for is truly righteous. Josh Alexander shows up and says that Eddie Edwards is so much of a broken record that he "believes his own B.S.," and says that everyone in Honor No More is functioning on fear of being passed by and made insignificant again. He says that both he and Eddie see the prize they are fighting for, yet the only difference between them is that Eddie sees the World title as job security while he sees it as proof of the best wrestler on Earth. After Alexander says that this is about who the best is, Eddie says Alexander is blinded by the lies and empty promises of Impact and that his eyes will be forced open at Bound For Glory, when he will regret not joining Honor No More. Eddie says that he walks into Bound For Glory with momentum at his side and Bound For Glory having his back while Alexander will walk into Bound For Glory all alone. Alexander says he may be alone now, but Eddie stood in his shoes and turned his back on everyone. Alexander says he fights for Impact Wrestling with the fans on his side, and that the only one who is outnumbered is Eddie. Eddie says that if the numbers game favors Alexander, Alexander says he should have no problem fighting all of Honor No More. Alexader says "Damn right, I don't," and fights them only to be outnumbered. Suddenly, Rich Swann shows up to back Alexander up, and Heath also shows up to save Alexander. Vincent then shows up and brings out PCO, but The Motor City Machine Guns show up to fully even the numbers. Alexander dares Eddie to fight him, but Eddie slides out of the ring.



Rich Swann and Heath beat Honor No More (Vincent and PCO).



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Moose. Moose says there was a deal between him and Steve Maclin, but now, that deal is out of the window and he is entering the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Match. he says that in eight days, he will become a two-time Impact World Champion and he will shove it down Maclin's throat. Maclin shows up and confronts Moose, and Moose and Maclin brawl.

Backstage, Scott D'Amore is met by Sami Callihan, who wants another match with Moose and Steve Maclin, and D'Amore tells Sami Callihan that he is not cleared due to his broken orbital bone. Callihan says Moose and Maclin need a receipt, and D'Amore - knowing that all three men can be a pain in the ass - proposes Maclin and Moose wrestle next week with Callihan as the special guest referee to ensure Callihan doesn't annoy him while also getting a little bit of fun. Callihan says he will take that.

Masha Slamovich beats Allie Katch in a Monster's Ball Match.
