Report by: Josh Boutwell of Wrestleview.com
Impact opens up with EY pacing back and forward in the parking lot. He says he has a few things to say to MVP when he arrives. MVP pulls up in a limo and EY opens the door and goes after him! Security rushes EY and drags him away as MVP smirks at him. MVP tells EY to compose himself because a guy can get hurt behaving that way.
A video package highlighting the drama between MVP and EY is shown.
Eric Young makes his way down to the ring without the title belt looking pissed off. EY says last week he woke up thinking maybe this whole thing with MVP is a dream, but the reality is that it is a real bad nightmare. He says he put his career in the hands of MVP and he stabbed him in the back. He says all the wrestlers were hoping for change and someone different and anyone is better than Dixie Carter. EY says he made a promise to the fans to be a fighting champion and he has done that, and now he promises that this kind of stuff will not happen anymore on his watch. He says if MVP wants to be World Champion he will have to TAKE it from EY. EY says MVP better watch what he wishes for because EY is crazy and he has never been right in the head. He says that he isn’t waiting until Slammiversary to get his hands on MVP. He tells MVP to get his “deadbeat, scumbag, ungrateful, woman leotard wearing ass out here!”
MVP appears on the big screen and taunts EY for acting “all swole up like” he’s the Hulk. MVP says EY isn’t green and he doesn’t have The Avengers out there to pull his ass out the fire when it gets to hot either. He says EY can throw as many verbal jabs as he wants but MVP isn’t about the “jaw boxing” and when EY uses the word “ungrateful” maybe he should look in the mirror. MVP reminds EY that it was MVP that booked him in the Gauntlet that afforded him the opportunity to wrestle for the World Title in the first place. MVP says he never honestly believed EY had a snowballs chance in hell at winning but when he did he was ecstatic because it sped up his plan that he will be laying out step by step in due time. He says EY is just the patsy that he set up so he could take what he wants, the World Heavyweight Championship. MVP says he knows where the true power in wrestling lies and even though he’s already the Director of Wrestling Operations that pencil pushing culture is not him. He mentions Donald Sterling and says he is the owner of the Clippers but now he is banned for life, owner but no power. He then says those players still go out there and play for the World Championship in their sport because that is where the definitive power is. “Money, power, respect; it’s the key to life!” He just quoted a Biggie song, nice. MVP says you can never have enough of either of those things. MVP says he does have a little sympathy for EY since he was just a pawn in MVP’s plan so he will let EY keep that title for a few more weeks, but then MVP is going to take it. He says when MVP does that EY can go back to doing what he does best, being an insignificant nobody.
EY says he told the fans he will defend his title every week, and tonight he fights MVP! MVP says that a great man once told him, “no contract, no contact” because he doesn’t fight for free.
A camera is following Dixie Carter and Rockstar Spud around earlier in the week. She arrives at her house where a sign has been left in the driveway that says “Dixie fears Bully.”

Kaz does the usual Bad Influence entrance as he comes out where he and Daniels would shake hands at the top of the ramp, but with Daniels no longer there he shakes his head and then shrugs and continues the entrance. The Menagerie gets pretty much no reaction from the fans but good lord Rebel is hot. Steve tries to give the referee some balloons and then offers them to Kaz.

Another great video package highlighting Sanada is shown. He is shown running on a treadmill while watching footage of his matches then sitting in the ring before the show watching more film and taking notes. He says he must be more prepared than any opponent he faces in the ring. He says that he will prove to everyone that he is a true champion. Why can’t they do video packages like this for all X-Division wrestlers? It makes no sense; give us a damn reason to care about these amazing athletes other than what they do in the ring.
