Young sidesteps a Gore attempt as Rhino crashes head-first into a garbage can. Rhino takes him off the top with a thunderous Superplex. Rhino sets up for another Gore when Deaner and Joe Doering hit the ring. Heath evens the odds as Rhino gets caught with a shot from Young’s mask. It’s total anarchy as Rich Swann, Willie Mack and even IMPACT World Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers join the fray. Young capitalizes off the chaos with a Piledriver to win!

Knockouts World Tag Team Champions The IInspiration and The Influence argue over what their new supergroup should be called – either the IInspirational Influence or the Influential IInspiration! Regardless, they must get on the same page because their 8-person tag team match against Decay is next.

Could The IInspiration’s new alliance with The Influence be what it takes to put their issues with Decay to rest? Following a double kick from The IInspiration to the back of Rosemary, the Demon Assassin rises from the dead to scare them off. Havok hits Jessie with a backbreaker clothesline combo for two. Madison jumps on the back of Steve but he sends her for a ride and bites her head. Taurus throws Dashwood over the top rope as she crashes into Kaleb at ringside. It appears Madison is angry that The IInspiration didn’t help break her partner’s fall. In the ring, Rosemary spears Dashwood to score the victory!

IMPACT World Champion Moose is seen watching on from a press box as Cardona is busted open. Morrissey charges into the corner but Cardona sidesteps to create separation and build momentum. Cardona takes the big man off his feet with a missile dropkick, followed by the ReBoot for two. Facing adversity, Cardona counters a powerbomb into Radio Silence but Morrissey somehow kicks out. Moments later, Morrissey pummels him in the corner as the referee tries to pry him off. Morrissey pushes Brian Hebner to the mat and he calls for the bell!

Winner: Matt Cardona by Disqualification
