Christopher Daniels & Kazarian + Claire Lynch + A.J. Styles: Kazarian congratulates Styles on his win this past weekend and says AJ probably think he’s finally put an end to this whole thing, but he’s only heard one verse and they haven’t gotten to the chorus yet. Daniels says he hears the fans booing AJ Styles because his actions this weekend were reprehensible, but he knows AJ will do anything to hide the truth. Because of that, he’d like to ask Claire Lynch to come out to the ring to answer some questions and clear a few things up for the fans. AJ. Styles came out. He’s surprised that Daniels is able to stand and speak after what he did to him this past weekend, but the story ended weeks ago.

IN RING SEGMENT
Auatin Aries + Bobby Roode: Austin Aries comes out saying that he’s had a great week, and it’s awesome to wake up and be the new World Heavyweight Champion. This is a great personal accomplishment, and he proved everyone wrong because nobody ever thought he would get there, and this is a great moment not just for himself and the fans, but for the professional wrestling industry.Wrestling runs in cycles between down periods and boom periods, and for the last year or so there’s been a buzz and an energy around Impact Wrestling, and wrestling fans are ready for the next boom period. He’s the man to lead the company there because his win at Destination X was bigger than this company. He got phone calls and text messages from people in movies, sports, and even “World Champions” from other companies, and he was asked in a recent interview how important titles were, and he says they’re only as important as the man who holds it, so now the TNA World Title is the most important in professional wrestling because he’s the best wrestler in the best wrestling company in the world. Bobby Roode came out.. Finally he’s able to spit out a single word: fluke. Roode leaves in a huff, but Aries said he has three words for him: new World Champ.

Roode says he wants Aries sooner than that, and Hogan says that next week is Open Fight Night, and since we don’t call out champions on Open Fight Night, Roode should call Aries out.
IN RING SEGMENT
Sting + Aces & Eights + Hulk Hogan ( On Titantron): Sting says there’s a crew out there who likes to play games, but this seems like a good time and place, and he didn’t come alone, so he asks Hulk Hogan to come on out and join him in the ring. Hogan’s music hits, but he doesn’t show. Sting asks him again to come out for the people, and his music hits again but still no Hogan. Sting has an uneasy look on his face as he stares at the entranceway, but Hogan’s music hits yet a third time, and goes right back off as we go to the back where a bloody Hogan is laying on the ground. Sting starts to make his way up the rampway to help, but gets beatdown by Aces and Eights.
