Impact Wrestling Results returned as Ace Austin and Chris Bey met the MCMG backstage after their win and mocked them.
The MCMG challenged to make their upcoming tag championship an Ultimate X tag match.
In the locker room, Edwards approached King about having his back, and King confronted him about not being there for him, so he has something else going on and told Edwards he should call whoever ran PCO over with that car.
Elsewhere, Dreamer told D’Amore he was serious last week when he asked him to be on his team. Despite D’Amore trying to back out, Dreamer gave him a serious sales pitch about joining him.
Jonathan Gresham vs. Mike Bailey 3
Trey Miguel joined the announce team for this match as the winner will face him for the X-Division Championship at Rebellion.
This should be a great match after their last two were classics.

Trey didn’t hesitate to talk trash on Bailey and Gresham, and once the match started the pair looked for an edge early on.
A shoving match broke out after the broke in the corner, and Gresham hit a dropkick and Bailey responded with machine gun kicks.
They tentatively reentered the ring and shook hands, then they fired off the ropes and hit each other with a cross body.
They traded pin attempts and chops as they kept countering each other as the pace increased until Gresham locked in a figure 4.
Bailey managed to roll over to reverse the pressure, but Gresham was able to roll it back, and they continued going back and forth until they rolled to the floor.
Trey nearly took shots from both of them but they stopped short, but Trey talked his trash and then leaped into the ring to hit both with a missile dropkick and stomp down Gresham.
He then grabbed his spray paint, but they were ready for him so he backed off.
Backstage, Deaner told Callihan that he’s surprised he made it this far with making the right choices, and Callihan said he sacrificed himself for them against Time Machine and he was accused of trying to trick them.
He asked what do they want from him and told them they can walk away or believe him and move onto Step 7.
The final step is for him to eliminate all authority in his life except for the Design.
Elsewhere, Trey was happy that he kepet Bailey and Gresham from getting a title shot, and Santino set up an elimination triple threat match at Rebellion.
Jody Threat vs. Tara Rising
Jody dominated early before they cut to the backstage where Marella was down after being attacked.
Back in the ring, Tara tried to fight back, but ate a shoulder tackle instead and then a clothesline in the corner as Jody continued her domination.

After pummeling Tara, Jody hit the F-416 to close out her debut win.

Marella said he has to dig deep and remind everyone who he is and he’ll join Dango and joe Hendry against the Design to get his own revenge.
