- Recap of Bound for Glory, showing highlights from each match during last Sunday's PPV. The show also featured the return of Alberto El Patron.
- Out to the ring is Impact Global Champion Eli Drake and Chris Adonis. Adonis on the mic first, telling everyone to shut it and show some respect for "The Face of Impact Wrestling" Eli Drake. Drake said he called his shot like Babe Ruth on BFG and whacked it over the fence, doing exactly what he said he would do. Drake hypes himself up and says everything was perfect except for Alberto El Patron, who's attack got him a couple stitches, which also means he's not competing tonight. He continues that he's fine with it, because now he can leave Canada, "Canada is garbage!" Suddenly, Petey Williams heads out to the stage.

Drake says he's got the night off, Williams doesn't care and heads to the ring. Chris Adonis tries to cut him off, but a weird kick to the face moves him aside. Drake hammers away on Williams as he gets in the ring. Williams recovers, hits a side russian leg sweep and tries for the canadian destroy. Adonis pulls his guy out of the ring.

He says he came out to congratulate Sydal on winning, which is it what he always does until it's time for an actual title match, then he loses. EC3 recaps how Sydal was able to defeat Lashley, got a title shot, and then chokes, over and over again. EC3 says he's missing the killer instinct, unlike himself, who is the grandest champ in all of the company. EC3 says he's a killer and Sydal is a "nice guy." Sydal wants him to step in the ring, but EC3 says nah and "Maybe in another life, you could have been reborn a winner."
