1. X-Division Fatal 4-Way
Matt Sydal vs. Andrew Everett vs. Caleb Konley vs. Desmond Xavier
Sydal is doing double duty on both Impact and ROH. Odd, that Sydal and Cody are the only two able to arrange such a deal, but there it is.
Fast paced X-division match to start the show.
All four were exchanging moves, when Everett hit a Franken-driver on Xavier for the pin. After the match it looked as though Sydal was telling Everett that he had been close to winning the match as well. A friendly rivalry could be brewing there.
Winner: Andrew Everett
KM orders pizza, but is not interested in paying for it.
EC3 & James Storm Segment
EC3 comes out dressed as a cowboy, mocking James Storm. This brought Storm out to beat him up. EC3 turned the tides and ended up handcuffing Storm to the ropes whipping him, all wearing cowboy chaps.

Ava Storie vs. Laurel Van Ness w/Kongo Kong
Van Ness wrestled this match in her wedding dress. She’s now been in that dress longer than the new ownership group has had control of the company. They botched her “big stomp” finish and the match ended. Van Ness kept attacking Storie after the match. When Hepnar went to get Van Ness off Ava, Kongo Kong ran in and rescued her. They are playing up the idea that Kongo Kong is her protector.
Winner: Laurel Van Ness
LAX Funeral For Decay
At first it appeared as though LAX was going to respectfully pay respects to Decay, but then they just dumped the ashes on the mat. This brought out the Veterans of War and a melee ensued.
