Rosemary & Taya Valkyrie vs. Kiera Hogan & Tasha Steelz vs. Havok & Nevaeh
Kiera Hogan and Tasha Steelz talk a little smack to the other teams right after the bell rings. Nevaeh and Rosemary are distracted at first, but they start their match fast with a standing switch. Rosemary smashes Nevaeh face-first into the top turnbuckle before tagging Taya Valkyrie in. Valkyrie lands a hard elbow before rolling Nevaeh up with a Northern Suplex. Nevaeh gets her shoulders up at 2. Nevaeh heads over to her corner to grab a tag from Havok. Havok and Nevaeh come together with a double clothesline. Valkyrie slaps and chops her out from Havok's control. Havok and Valkyrie take their brawl over to Hogan and Steelz's corner. Hogan comes in with a 360 low dropkick. Hogan does not get the pin on Valkyrie. Valkyrie finds her defense with a strong suplex on Hogan before bringing Rosemary back in.

Mathews and Rayne run through tonight's card as well as the newly added matches to Bound For Glory.
Backstage: John E Bravo is freaking out about how much his wedding is going to cost. Fallah Bahh informs the group that he didn't get any money. We all know that isn't true! Crazzy Steve just doesn't believe Bahh; Bahh challenges Crazzy Steve to a match later on tonight.
.@steveofcrazzy is wondering if @FALLAH1 has anything to get off his chest. Like a large stack of money for example. #IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/tYpsqkLR48

Backstage: Rosemary teleports over to talk to Havok. She wants Havok to help bring back Father James Mitchell so he can officiate her wedding. Havok has a deal: next week, if Rosemary beats her, she'll help her bring Mitchell back. If Havok wins, Mitchell stays gone still. Rosemary agrees to this challenge.
The stakes are high next week – if @WeAreRosemary can defeat @FearHavok then Havok will assist in the resurrection of Father James Mitchell. #IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/pxkYhJwlBf

Fallah Bahh and Crazzy Steve take their fight to the ring next!

He wants Bahh to take his shirt off so he can see for himself if he has the money on him. Bahh charges towards Steve with a crossbody. Steve locks Bahh in an Upside Down off the ropes. Bahh catches Steve off the second rope. Steve rips Bahh's shirt to reveal that he did have the wad of cash tucked in his shirt. Bahh is shocked. Steve rolls Bahh up for the win.

Backstage: Rhino tells Heath that he pulled some strings with Impact Management and got him in for the "Call Your Shot" gauntlet match at BFG! But, there's a catch. If they don't pull off a win, Heath nor Rhino have a job with Impact anymore. Scott D'Amore catches Rhino. He informs him that they had a deal. He wants to make sure Rhino wants to put his contract on the line. Rhino says he does. They both will be in a match tonight.
The stakes are insanely high at #BFG2020 – if either @HEATHXXII or @Rhyno313 win the Call Your Shot Gauntlet, Heath gets his IMPACT contract.
But if they lose, BOTH OF THEM are gone from IMPACT. #IMPACTonAXSTV @ScottDAmore pic.twitter.com/stvkSktsTo

Young wants to know what Jacobs thinks: will Swann return in time? Jacobs thinks so. Young says there's not a chance. He is upset that Jacobs is rooting for Swann to make a comeback.

Up next, Impact's biggest goliaths face off!
Before their match kicks off, the Good Brothers take a moment to applaud all their successes as a tag team. They believe they have all the traits to be a good tag team, but there's one thing missing: the Impact World Tag Team Championships. They inform the fans and everyone in the back, they will walk out of BFG as the new champions. Madman Fulton's music hits, and he heads down to the ring.

We see an ad to hype up BFG!
Eric Young makes his way down to the ring to find out more about Rich Swann's status.
Young begins his speech by saying that he's told us all that he is going to take over everything. He demands to hear answers about Swann and will not leave the ring until he finds out what's going on. Scott D'Amore pops up on the screen, and his phone rings. He is speaking to Swann's doctor. D'Amore will address Young and Impact fans about Swann's status, right after the break.
Back from the break, Young wants D'Amore to tell the world that Swann is down and out and will not show up at BFG. D'Amore calls Young out for being too proud and cocky. He says he spoke to Swann's doctor, and he's been informed that Swann suffered additional and substantial damage. Young laughs in D'Amore's face. Young wants D'Amore to finish his statement, but he wants him to officially announce that Swann is not cleared to compete. D'Amore asks Young what happened to him. Once upon a time ago, he was a good guy. But after leaving the first time, he's changed and not for the better.
D'Amore gets the upper hand in this confrontation by letting Young know that Swann will still compete at BFG. Young loses his mind and unleashes a brutal beating on D'Amore. Swann runs down to the ring and sends Young out and away.
Following that wild bout, we see Moose has found EC3. EC3 laughs off Moose's comment that he's a god. He doesn't think he's even a wrestler. He finds him to be a joke – a laughing stock. EC3 challenges him. Moose slugs EC3 with a hard-hitting punch. EC3 fights back. EC3 asks Moose, "Who are you?" He lists off all of Moose's roles outside of wrestling – a father, a husband, etc. But he doesn't think Moose has it in him to fight a guy like him. Moose sends EC3 down and out. He grabs the TNA World Heavyweight Championship, as the show concludes.
That concludes tonight's show. Thanks for watching!
