** Before tonight's show, Eddie Edwards defeated Sam Beale on Before The Impact! **

D'Lo Brown and Josh Mathews, who's filling in for Matt Striker, welcome fans to Impact Wrestling! We kick things off with "The Draw" Sami Callihan.

Sami Callihan's In-Ring Promo:

Sitting in the center of the ring, Sami Callihan begins his promo by saying all he sees is bullcrap since Kenny Omega came to Impact. He calls out Don Callis for holding Omega back from him. "The Draw" wants Omega, and he wants him now! Instead of receiving his wish, Callihan gets Moose instead.

Callihan looks extremely displeased to see Moose there. Moose grabs a microphone and lets Callihan know nobody cares what he has to say because he isn't the next contender for the Unified Impact World Championship. Moose wants Callihan to stay out of his business until Against All Odds. He promises – in a threatening way – that he'll give Callihan a title opportunity if he wins it off of Omega.

Callihan ponders why The Good Brothers are going after him if Moose is considered the new threat. After throwing their names out there, the Good Brothers make their way into the ring.

The Good Brothers agree with Moose and that Callihan needs to stay out of his and Omega's business. The Good Brothers announce that they're on Moose's side. While he appreciates their support, Moose acknowledges that he isn't on the Good Brothers' side. Moose and Callihan throw the Good Brothers out of the ring.

Backstage: The Good Brothers are enraged over Callihan and Moose's disrespectful antics. Don Callis finds them and proposes a match for later tonight. It'll be the Good Brothers against Sami Callihan and Moose.

Backstage: Gia Miller finds Don Callis and asks him if the match he created just before the break is official. Callis says, of course, it is; he's still the Executive Vice President of Impact. Even though he isn't a big fan of Callis, the other EVP, Scott D'Amore, is letting this tag match between the Good Brothers and Sami Callihan and Moose happen tonight.

- Josh Mathews and D'Lo Brown run through the other matches and events that are scheduled for tonight's show. We head back to the ring for some X-Division tag team action!

As TJP rises up to his feet with a kip-up, Bahh struggles to do the same thing. TJP helps him up, and Bahh heads to the apron. TJP finds his groove with Williams with some high-flying offense. Alexander knocks TJP out of the ring with a low crossbody. Bahh is back in as the legal man. Williams holds Bahh down as Alexander soars off the top with a perfect elbow drop.

- Gia Miller sits down with W. Morrissey. Morrissey has a lot to say about the industry and learning how to resurrect his career. He talks about the seizure he had during one of his matches and how the fans would rather take pictures and record videos instead of calling for an ambulance. He is sick and tired of the fans and his fellow colleagues and how they portray a fake facade now that he's better off than before. He doesn't understand why they couldn't be there for him through the good times and bad. He doesn't care that he attacked Willie Mack's best friend Rich Swann last week. He wants the last laugh, and he's going to get it. Swann comes in hot and attacks Morrissey.

- We take a look at the growing Knockouts division, and how they've revolutionized what women's wrestling can do. Tonight, 10 of the best Knockouts will collide in tag team action!

Backstage: Rosemary, Tenille Dashwood, Havok, and Rachael Ellering are standing by before their tag match. But someone is missing: Taylor Wilde. No one knows where she is. It looks like Jordynne Grace will take her place.
