TV Taping for Thursday, June 1st:
-Jade Alexander introduced Matthew Rehwoldt, David Penzer and Gia Miller for the show and then left the ringside area
-A Bully Ray promo segment opened the show
-Ray stated that there was nobody better in the business at putting people through tables than him and when you really piss him off, he puts them through a flaming table. Ray stated that he was going to Against All Odds in Ohio to win the 8-4-1 tournament and then go on to Slammiversary to win the IMPACT World Championship
-Motor City Machine Guns then came down to the ring and Alex Shelley took exception to both Maclin and Ray’s claim to the title and said he’s walking out of Against All Odds as champion. Ray told Shelley he was one of the best in the world but that he’s never won the title and that Sabin isn’t as great as him. Sabin told Ray he beat him for the title 10 years ago but Ray responded his title reign didn’t last long. Shelley stated that he knows he can beat Maclin and when Maclin asked how he knew, Shelley stated it was because Maclin is not Josh Alexander. Sabin then challenged Ray and Maclin to a tag team match and Ray said that was a great idea but it wasn’t happening tonight.
-SUBCULTURE’s music then hit and challenged MCMG to a match later tonight and MCMG agreed
-Eddie Edwards (w/Alisha) defeated Yuya Uemura by pinfall with the Boston Knee Party
-After the match, Edwards went to shake Uemura’s hand but then pulled his hand away instead and left the ring.

Kazarian then took out Edwards and Alisha as she had jumped on his back before leaving ringside
