We hear from The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan). TK O'Ryan says that Villain Enterprises ("The Villain" Marty Scurll, Brody King, PCO) should be giving Matt Taven a hand for showing what they could do, and that they are not impressed.

Brace For Impact - The Results
Before the next match, Anthony Kingdom James' own introduction is interrupted by Kevin Bennett, who makes a surprise appearance - his first since a car accident. After Bennett introduces himself, he says tonight is a big show and that he will be a big part of it because he is the star of SMASH Wrestling. He challenges both "The King of the North" Carter Mason and "The Endorsement" Sebastian Suave, saying he will make them both look silly, then proceeds to rap.
Kevin Bennett beats "The Endorsement" Sebastian Suave and "The King of the North" Carter Mason after Anthony Kingdom James inadvertently trips Mason off the ropes only for Bennett to shove Suave out of the ring and pin Suave with his feet on the ropes for leverage to get the win. After the match, Anthony Kingdom James tells Bennett that he hopes he is proud of himself and happy to steal the victory in a match that he wasn't originally scheduled for, and says Bennett's run on top will be "shorter than leprechauns." James then says that he and Suave have earned their spot and that they want the spotlight now. He accuses SMASH Wrestling of getting involved in their business, and says they will solve this right now by issuing a one-on-one challenge against "Iron" Matt Cross, saying that they want him in the ring.
Rosemary beats Xandra Bale, Allie and KC Spinelli in a four-way match. The match is billed as Xandra Bale's last match before retiring.
"Psycho" Mike Rollins beats Cody Deaner. During the match, Rollins' conscience - which is heard via the sound system - tells him not to drink beer when it is offered to him by both Deaner and the fans, and tells him to wear Deaner's hat after concluding it has magic powers only to be proven wrong. Afterwards, Rollins' consciousness - which now suspiciously like Cody Deaner - tells him that the hat did not work, and that he should drink a beer after Deaner tries to force him to drink a beer. Rollins then gets wobbly and his consciousness tells him "That's not me, That's Cody Deaner!" After a flurry of offense, Rollins' consciousness tells him that this is the part where he blacks out, and Rollins falls to the mat. Afterwards, Deaner goes for a DDT, but Rollins nearly pukes on him and has to puke in a bag. Deaner goes for the DDT again, but Rollins hits him with the bag followed by a Fisherman's Suplex to get the win. After the match, Rollins raises Deaner's hand, then offers him a beer to a fan, which they share before Rollins nearly blacks out again.
Mark Wheeler beats Kyle Boone.
We hear from Halal Beefcake (Idris Abraham and Joe Coleman). Coleman says The Pillars (Tyson Dux and Brent Banks) cannot beat them, and Abraham says that The Pillars are so pathetic that they will easily put them through tables.
Halal Beefcake (Idris Abraham and Joe Coleman) beat The Pillars (Tyson Dux and Brent Banks) to become the SMASH Wrestling Tag Team Champions! During the match, Joe Coleman brushes the referee into the corner, knocking him down, and the referee is unable to see Dux put Coleman through a table. Later on in the match, Kevin Bennett shows up and distracts Tyson Dux, allowing Halal Beefcake to throw protein powder in Brent Banks' face and put Brent Banks through a table to win the title.
The Rascalz (Trey Miguel and Zachary Wentz) beat oVe (Jake and Dave Crist).
Tarik retains the SMASH Wrestling Championship against Scotty O'Shea despite interference by the rest of Kill/Screen (Anthony Gaines, Shane Sabre, Mark Wheeler), who attack Tarik after the match. The rest of The Pillars (Sebastian Suave, Tyson Dux, Brent Banks) chase Kill/Screen out of the ring to make the save for Tarik. Afterwards, Tyson Dux tells Kill/Screen they are a bunch of cockroaches in the dark who scatter if they are caught in the light, and challenges them to an eight-man tag team match. Tarik tells Kill/Screen that if they want a gang fight, they will get a gang war.
Johnny Impact retains the Impact World Championship against Sami Callihan. During the match, Sami Callihan inadvertently lands on top of referee John E. Bravo during a kick-out by Johnny Impact, and Sami Callian manages to hit a spike piledriver following a kick to the groin. A second referee shows up, but Johnny Impact kicks out. Callihan attacks the second referee, sending him out of the ring, and goes for another spike piledriver as John E. Bravo comes to. Johnny hits a low blow and a neckbreaker followed by Starship Pain to retain the title.

The Lucha Bros. (Pentagon Jr. and Fenix) and Taurus beat The Latin-American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz) and Daga. After the match, Pentagon Jr. takes the microphone and tells LAX that if they feel they are capable of beating them one more time, then they challenge them to another match for the Impact World Tag Team Championships. He says that while everyone is talking about their match at Homecoming, they can do it all again next week.
Backstage, Melissa Santos interviews Killer Kross and Moose. Kross says everything went according to plan last week until "The Machine" Brian Cage showed up, and he tells Cage that he is not invincible and will learn that soon. He says the only thing worse than an impostor is a hypocrite. Moose tells him to calm down, saying that composure is the key to victory and that Johnny Impact and Cage will implode.
Konnan talks with Santana and Ortiz. He says that Taurus and Daga showed promise in Impact tonight, then tells them that he feels will not be a rift between The Latin-American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz) and The Lucha Bros. (Pentagon Jr. and Fenix) this time around if they stay professional.
