Josh Mathews and Madison Rayne welcome fans to Impact Wrestling! We kick things off with a Bound For Glory rematch, where "The Undead Bride" Su Yung will put her Knockouts Championship on the line against "The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo.

Knockouts Championship: Su Yung (c) vs. Deonna Purrazzo (w/Kimber Lee)

Su Yung looks to put on her red glove. As her back is turned, Deonna Purrazzo charges towards Yung with a dropkick. Yung picks Purrazzo up for a Panic Switch. Purrazzo slides out to try and put an armbar on but has no such luck. Purrazzo keeps on Yung's arm by stopping it in the corner. Yung gets a low back kick in before sending Purrazzo towards the middle turnbuckle. Yung follows it up with a palm strike. Both women run the ropes and crash in the middle of the ring with a double clothesline. Purrazzo looks for a cradle piledriver, Yung rolls through. Yung goes right for her mandible claw. Kimber Lee throws a chair in for Purrazzo. Both Purrazzo and Yung play tug a war before the chair drives itself into Purrazzo's midsection.

Post-Match: Yung goes after Lee with the chair before the camera cuts over to Mathews and Rayne, who run through what's to come on tonight's show.

Following that, we're about to see Heath sign his official contract with Impact! D'Amore has Heath's contract in his hands. But before he gives it to him, D'Amore thinks it might be best to have Heath sign it after he's fully cleared to compete. Heath is not too happy about D'Amore's decision, but he walks away, letting him know that he'll be back and in the clear sooner than he thinks.

After Heath and Rhino leave, Purrazzo's legal assistant, R.D. Evans, comes in to talk to D'Amore about what just happened towards the end of Purrazzo/Yung's match. D'Amore says that he'll give Purrazzo another opportunity to challenge for the title at Turning Point next Saturday.

Madison Rayne welcomes us back with her "Locker Room Talk" show with co-host Johnny Swinger. Her guests this week are Jordynne Grace and Tenille Dashwood (w/ Kaleb With A "K"). Grace tells Rayne she's confident she'll find a partner before the Knockouts Tag Team Tournament in two weeks. Grace thinks maybe her and Dashwood might be an irresistible force. Dashwood would rather team with Rayne, so she asks her if she'd like to be her partner in the tournament. Rayne accepts her proposal. Grace looks completely confused and leaves the set.

Sherlock Tommy Dreamer starts questioning referee Brandon Tolle who happened to officiate the Fallah Bahh and Johnny Swinger match a few weeks back if he had anything to do with Bravo's injury. Dreamer doesn't get much out of him, so the next two suspects come in: Swinger and Cody Deaner. They both are bickering amongst themselves. They have a scheduled match tonight to attend to. Dreamer tells them both to come back after their match.

Up next, the Self-Proclaimed TNA World Heavyweight Champion, Moose, will make an announcement.

Coming back from the commercial break, Moose makes his way down to the ring.

Moose begins his interview by saying that in the last few months, he, nor his title, has been taken seriously. He admits that following his match with EC3 at BFG, he is now controlling his narrative. He lists all the accomplishments he's had in the company so far, especially all the matches he's won against former TNA stars. He doesn't understand why fans would rather talk about Rich Swann and his new title reign than his. He finds Swann's title to be second place to his. He threatens that he'll show Swann what pain looks like following his encounter with Willie Mack.
