At the Bar: Rosemary is talking to the bartender. Someone sitting at the bar comments back at Rosemary's remarks. It's Raven!
Nothing quite puts your lust for vengeance into perspective like running into @theraveneffect in a bar.
It's not a true blood feud unless you put 20 years into it. #IMPACTonAXSTV @WeAreRosemary pic.twitter.com/9Cl7wHAISt

Up next, some tag team action!

Next, the Impact Plus Moment of the Week is shown.
After the Impact Plus Moment, #CancelCulture makes a PSA that they are challenging The Deaners to a match next week and that they're going to cancel them. The Deaners respond by saying that there's no way they're going to be canceled because everything they've ever watched was never canceled. They run through multiple TV shows that have been canceled over time. After pondering that thought, they go back to preparing for their match next week.
.@CodyDeaner seems rattled by the prospect of being cancelled just like the classics like Gunsmoke, Alf and Happy Days. #IMPACTonAXSTV @JakeSomething_ pic.twitter.com/DdJjKuE5jE

After Impact goes off the air, we see Yung and Havok looking for a way out of The Undead Wasteland. Rosemary transports herself there and meets up with the ladies. Rosemary says if they trust her, she'll help them take Mitchell down. They all agree and leave The Undead Wasteland. All three women find Mitchell. As Yung is about to stab Mitchell, Havok grabs the knife and stabs him, herself.
