Results
Video package is played about the X Division title match last week.
Sienna and Laurel Van Ness are backstage. Sienna tells LVN that Rosemary isn’t in the building which means it’s Laurel’s chance for revenge. The GFW Women’s champ to get focused as Sienna goes and gets ready for the match.
X Division elimination match involving Trevor Lee, Davey Richards, Suicide, Eddie Edwards, Braxton Sutter, & Matt Sydal
This is another Sony SIX match so the winner gets a trophy.
The first segment of the match was all over the place. The Wolves concentrated on each other outside the ring much of the time. Suicide does a trust fall off the second rope onto everyone outside the ring as they go to break.
No eliminations during the break. However, soon Trevor Lee rolls up Braxton Sutter grabbing the tights to eliminate him.
Trevor Lee and Richards start an alliance for a bit. Suicide tries to fight both men, but ends up taking a double stomp from Lee which results in another elimination.
Edwards and Sydal team up and are able to gain the advantage. As Eddie Edwards is performing a suicide dive, Richards tosses a steel chair in his head, resulting in him him being DQ’d.
Despite being tossed, Richards tries to get a running chairshot on Eddie. Eddie catches him with a chair shot of his own and then hits a package suplex on a chair to his former partner. Even though Richards was no longer in the match, this results in Eddie’s DQ for some reason. Impact goes to break.
Impact returns with Trevor Lee and Matt Sydal going at it. They wrestle about 3-4 minutes until Sydal hits a kick to the head and follows up with his Shooting Star Press for the 1-2-3.
Matt Sydal wins
He is presented a trophy .

They play a video of Rockstar Spud out on the streets of Mumbai. He sees Swoggle having fun with a bunch of locals. Spud chases after him, hands off his phone/selfie stick, and the person he hands it off steals it. They jaws at each other and look to fight until another little person breaks them up.
Allie is backstage, distraught that Rosemary has not showed up to the building for their match tonight. She’s pumping herself up, trying to convince her the Demon Assassin is showing up.
They play a video of Joseph Park and Jeremy Borash. Park is despondent about the entire Scott Steiner thing. JB tries to pump up his partner with a pep talk (including saying “Was it over for Impact when they made Josh Mathews lead commentator? No.” It works and they do the Mega Powers handshake.
Sienna & Laurel Van Ness vs. Allie and possibly Rosemary
Allie comes out to the stage. Rosemary’s music plays but the KOs champ doesn’t come out.
The heels decide to leave the ring and take care of Allie up on the stage. But Rosemary was under the ring! Double clothesline on the ramp!
However Rosemary is clipped from behind in the ring and the bad gals take control of her. Allie tags in an takes it to LVN though, including a Code Breaker!
KM walks out with a kendo stick but Braxton Sutter is out to neutralize him.
Rosemary is back in the ring and goes after LVN, but Sienna delivers a German Suplex, Van Ness hits the curb stomp (to the back), and Sienna pins Rosemary for the 1-2-3.
Sienna and Laurel win
Allie and Braxton check on Rosemary post match.

Sonjay Dutt is riding around in the streets of Mumbai with the crowd outside cheering him on.
We see a video of LAX where they left off last week. Konnan is suggesting they go to local promotions, drop the tag champs, and take the promoters’ bank roll. They then show quick clips of them storming matches and laying guys out.
Sonjay Dutt segment
JB and Mahabali Shera are in the ring to introduce Sonjay Dutt. The X Division champ comes out decked in Indian garb and they have a dancing ritual in the ring. He then talks about how this title is a belt he’s been trying to win for 15 years and got to do it here in India. He promises to be the greatest X Division champion who’s ever lived.
Low Ki interrupts. He says he wants to congratulate Dutt on his victory. He thinks that Dutt had just a bit of luck on his side when he won though. He requests a rematch. Dutt says he will grant that, but they’ll do it at Slammiversary... 2 out 3 falls.
Mahabali Shera is still awkwardly standing in the ring.
Sonjay and Low Ki shake hands.... oh but Low Ki cheap shots Dutt! Cheap shot to Mahabali! Warriors Way to Shera! Low Ki goes back to the top rope but here’s Matt Sydal to stand in front of Dutt protecting him from a Warrior’s Way.

KM vs. Mahabali Shera
Shear comes out taped up with the doctors trying to stop him given he was just attacked by Low Ki. KM runs out, grabs him, and drives him into the ring apron.
The match happens anyway. KM goes for an early cover, but Shera kicks out. Mahabali survives a bit of punishment. KM misses a springboard splash and Shera hits a sky high powerbomb for the 1-2-3.
Shera def. KM
Kongo Kong comes out after the match. Shera ends up taking a beating from both KM and Kongo.

Back to JB and Joe Park. We get a training montage in the gym.
Moose’s tag partner reveal
Eli Drake and Chris Adonis come out. They speculate who Moose’s tag opponent is. Possibly Bruce Pritchard?
Moose comes out. He says he doesn’t have a partner that’s in the locker room. But he has one: It’s DeAngelo Williams.
They show a Williams video package.
After the video, we see that Moose is getting beaten down by Drake and Adonis.

EC3 & Bobby Lashley vs. James Storm and Alberto El Patron
EC3 teases that he’ll face Storm but he tags in Lashley immediately. EC3 does get in there when Patron is tagged in. The GFW takes it to EC3 and tosses him out of the ring. Lashley runs in but he gets tossed out as well. Storm does an assisted top rope dive onto both men as Impact goes to break.
When they returned, Patron is face in peril. during the break, he was going for his stomp finisher on EC3 when Lashley knocked him off the top rope. Alberto finally tags out and Storm comes in hot. He teases using a leather strop on Carter, but this allows Lashley to nail the Cowboy from behind. Storm finds himself in trouble.
EC3 tagged himself in when Lashley was in the ring by tagging Lashley’s face. Bobby wasn’t happy but returned to the apron. Storm finally tags out.
Storm and Patron get advantage on Carter and Patron uses something to whip EC3 in front of the official. Nothing happens.
They perform a tower of doom spot, with Lashley on the bottom. He then misses a spear into a Last Call. Superkick from Patron. Arm breaker locked on Lashley but Carter breaks it up. Now he grabs the strap but the ref tries to stop him. Because of that, he whips the ref!
Brian Hebner runs out and calls for the DQ.
Storm and Patron win by DQ
The fight continues after the match on the outside after the match. The show ends with Patron holding both titles in the crowd.
