After the match, Myers and Eddie attack Elijah, then Joe Hendry shows up with a white guitar and runs them off before helping Elijah up.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "Inevitable" Ace Austin and The Rascalz (Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz). Austin says tonight's match is their first real test to see if they can co-exist, even though they practically grew up together in the business. He admits they have history, but he has never pretended to be their friend and then stab them in the back. Wentz says that The Northern Armory (Eric Young, Judas Icarus, Travis Williams) is about to get hit with the heat, and that Wes Lee and his "bootleg Rascalz" Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe will learn to stay out of their business at Sacrifice.

It's time for The Fir$t Cla$$ Penthouse. Fir$t Cla$$ (AJ Francis and KC Navarro) introduce themselves and mention the success of their first segment, then says they had to go bigger this time. Tonight's guest is KC Navarro after Francis teases bringing out Kevin Owens. Navarro admits he is still hurting from last week, and as Francis states that he will put the boots to Steve Maclin, Maclin shows up and tells Navarro to shut up, as he and Francis talk too much and do not fight enough. Maclin then picks a fight with Francis, and Francis teases fighting Maclin before saying his shoes are worth more than his life and that he will give him thirty minutes. Maclin says he will see Francis in the ring.

Savannah Evans beats Xia Brookside with a cheap shot as Brookside consults with the referee as Evans tries to get up from hurting her knee on a missed charge into the corner followed by a missed knee drop.

At the hotel, Spitfire (Jody Threat and Dani Luna) break into Ash by Elegance and Heather by Elegance's hotel room and give them a rude awakening as well as a punk makeover before going for a jog. Meanwhile, the personal concierge George Iceman does not like what he is seeing. They ends up having a bagged lunch on a nearby hill.

Before the next match, John Skyler says that Mike Santana's message has been relayed to Mustafa Ali, and that Mustafa has given him free reign to take care of Santana. Skyler says he will take Santana out like the street trash that he is, and do it with "these Great Hands." Skyler says he will take Santana out like the street trash that he is, and do it with "these Great Hands."

Mike Santana beats John Skyler. After the match, Jason Hotch tries to attack Santana from behind with the ring bell hammer, but Santana sees it coming and hits him with Spin The Block before grabbing the hammer. After the match, Mustafa Ali shows up on the video screen and says Santana is unhinged, and that TNA should be "a safe working environment." He says Santana has been randomly chosen for a urine sample. A man in a suit then shows up with a urine sample cup. Santana takes it out of his hand.

AJ Francis beats Steve Maclin following the distraction by The Northern Armory (Eric Young, Judas Icarus, Travis Williams) and another distraction by Navarro, which allows Francis to hit the Down Payment for the win.

Backstage, "The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth meets with Elijah, Joe Hendry, Leon Slater and Matt Hardy, saying he is on the team. Matt calls "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth, and through the call where Nic vouches for Ryan, Ryan finds out he is not on the team, and he leaves in tears.

Backstage, Steve Maclin confronts Eric Young. Young says The Northern Armory (Young, Judas Icarus, Travis Williams) is watching his back and doing this for him, but Maclin says that while he trusts Eric, he does not trust in The Northern Armory. Eric says he knows what is best for Maclin better than even Maclin does, and tells Maclin to let the truth guide him. Maclin then runs into Frankie Kazarian, who then laughs at Maclin's predicament. Maclin tells Kazarian not to do this, but Kazarian admits he finds enjoyment in this before Maclin leaves.

We see footage from The Hardys' (Jeff and Matt Hardy) and Moose's recent appearances on this week's WWE NXT.

Oba Femi heads to the ring. He is soon joined by The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, JDC). Moose summons security to surround the middle of the ring before he enters the ring, and tells Oba Femi that the security is for his protection. Oba finds this amusing, then says he had heard rumblings about Moose in the past year as well as a potential match between them, and as he became WWE NXT Champion, the rumblings became a loud demand. He admits he likes the idea of the match, but asks Moose why he is doing this now. Moose says he is a prize fighter and that he always fights for the biggest prize in the game. He says that the business has taught him patience and that he knew Oba Femi would be NXT Champion, and when he did, he picked his spot and crossed the line. Oba says Moose has accomplished a lot, but Moose has yet to beat him, and that he will be the one to walk out of NXT Roadblock as NXT Champion. Moose says he may have been the face of the franchise for the last ten years, but he will be face of Oba's franchise and there is nothing Oba can do about it. Oba says that is Moose is really the face of the franchise, then he can call off The System. JDC offers a spot in The System to the first member of security to jump Oba Femi, and all of security rushes at Oba only to be quickly overpowered. Oba then plows through JDC and powerbombs another security guard with the Fall From Grace, but Moose and Myers hold Oba Femi down for a big boot. Oba dodges and Moose hits Myers instead, but Moose gets the last word with a Spear before holding the NXT and X-Division titles.

We hear from Nathan Frazer and Axiom, who say that they will be saying their goodbyes when they not only retain the WWE NXT tag team titles, but become the best tag team in all of professional wrestling when they beat The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy). Nathan Frazer thanks The Hardys for all they have done, and that they will take the torch from them and prove they are among the best tag teams of all time. Axiom says he feels something special in TNA, and that they will be watching The Hardys closely when the face The Colons (Eddie and Orlando Colon).

The Northern Armory (Eric Young, Judas Icarus, Travis Williams) beat "Inevitable" Ace Austin and The Rascalz (Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz) in a six-man tag match following the distraction by Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe.

Backstage, Mike Santana meets with Director of Authority Santino Marella regarding the urine sample. Santino says that Mustafa Ali went over his head, and tells Santana to prove them wrong. Meanwhile, Santana encounters Tasha Steelz yelling at someone backstage to get Mustafa's coffee right, and this gives Santana an idea. After she leaves, Santana relieves the man of his coffee duty and goes to the bathroom with the urine sample cup and the coffee cup.

We see Spitfire (Jody Threat and Dani Luna) take Ash by Elegance and Heather by Elegance to a gym, where Spitfire put them through the ringer. A man with a mop attacks Spitfire, and it happens to be personal concierge George Iceman, who rescues Ash and Heather.

Masha Slamovich heads to the ring. Masha says being Knockouts World Champion means there is a target on your back, but she is a fighter and she is built for war. She says that Cora Jade thinks she is stepping into her world or into a match at Sacrifice, but she is stepping into a fight and that she will not be walking out. Cora Jade shows up and says Masha talks a big game but knows her days are numbered, as the Knockouts World Championship is coming home with her and that Masha is just "the most overhyped champion" at the end of the day. She says Masha's weaknesses will be exposed when she makes history and wins the title, but Masha tells Cora that she will get exposed for not being able to hand with a real fighter and she will find out why she is the most ruthless Knockouts World Champion in history. Suddenly, Masha is attacked from behind by Tessa Blanchard, and Cora Jade joins in. Lei Ying Lee soon shows up and takes out both Cora and Tessa, then checks on Masha.

Backstage, Mustafa Ali gets his coffee from Tasha Steelz, who tells him that Santana's test came back negative and that Santana passed his drug test. He then finds out that his coffee is really bitter, unbeknownst to Tasha Steelz (and it is implied that Mustafa may have tasted Santana's urine).

"The Hollywood Hunk" Ryan Nemeth announces that "The Wanted Man" Nic Nemeth will return in eight days, next Friday at Sacrifice.

The Colons (Eddie and Orlando Colons) vs. The Hardys (Jeff and Matt Hardy) ends with The Hardys being attacked by The System (Eddie Edwards, Alisha Edwards, Brian Myers, Moose, JDC). After the match, Joe Hendry, Leon Slater and Elijah charge the ring to make the save for The Hardys. Director of Authority Santino Marella shows up and proclaims that order must be restored, then says there will be no running, hiding or outside interference, as the ten-man tag match at Sacrifice will be in a steel cage, marking the first steel cage match in TNA in five years.
