Angle wanted to discuss the finish of last week’s main event. There has been some controversy, and he won’t back away from that; he calls out Lashley. Lashley says when they wrestled last week, something didn’t feel right because Angle didn’t win. They looked at the tape. We see the evidence, and Lashley says it is clear and asks if that is how Angle wants to win. Angle says he won’t back down from defending the title; he beat Lashley once and has no doubt that he can do it again. Lashley challenges him to one more match and Angle agrees and wants to do it tonight.
Eric Young makes his way out and does not approve of this. He says no one respects the rules anymore; Young says he’s on top of the rankings and is the top contender. Last week he beat Bobby Roode and earned his shot. Young says he is world class, while Roode and Lashley are losers and Angle is holding his title. He tells Lashley to get to the back of the line, and Lashley tells him to earn his spot. Young eye rakes Lashley, Angle tries to German him and takes a low blow and then Lashley accidentally spears Angle.

The Revolution Segment:
Storm had a vision of a revolution and he gave them everything. But they all failed him. And just like Sanada who failed him so many times, his name will never be spoken of here again. He asks Abyss if he was pinned when they lost the titles? He asks Manik if he lost the Ultimate X match. And then slaps Koya, says he took him from his crap hole of a country and made him see the light. He handpicked them all, but now there can be room for one less. He will be in the tag team tournament and one of them will be his partner. He tells Abyss that he is soft and not a monster anymore. Now, they will fight each other to see who will stand with him. The only rule is that there has to be a winner.

The Rising and BDC Segment:
Galloway thanks the fans for giving him the chance to live his dream, and he’s here to change the sport he loves. They’re all going to change wrestling for the better, and he tells the fans to speak their mind at home because he’s going to do that on this microphone right now. His brothers decided to join him because he can’t beat the BDC by himself, they’re the Rising and all the fans are the Rising as well. He tells his new teammates to introduce themselves, and Micah, the son of Haku, says he has wrestling pumping through his veins and he knew he had to stand up because that’s what his father taught him. The BDC are bullies, and they stand up to bullies and punch them right in their mouths. The other gentlemen introduces himself as Eli Drake and says he’s in the ring standing with two other guys who have a common bond. They’re not made in a factory, they’re not superstars, they’re wrestlers and they have something to prove.
Eli is his own man, but when the BDC messes with his friends, they mess with him. Drew says nobody’s going to suffer in silence any more, and he’s reaching out to his brothers who were where he once was, because there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. If the BDC wants a war, and if the fans want to see a war, they’re ready for the BDC. This brings out MVP, Low Ki, and Kenny King, and MVP says that since Drew always wants to tell a story, he’ll tell a story about the Rising and their tragic fall. It’s a really short story, and it ends tonight. MVP has thrown down the gauntlet, so Galloway counts down from 3 and the Rising rushes the aisle and brawls with the BDC. The fight spills all around ringside and TNA security comes out to try and separate them.
Third Match: The Rising vs. The BDC
Drake and King start us off and King comes out on top of an exchange with a powerslam for two count. Micah tags in and is quickly dragged to the BDC corner. MVP tags in and goes toe to toe with Micah, and Micah gets the advantage with right hands and a dropkick. Micah dodges a Yakuza kick and hits a neckbreaker for one count. Kenny King distracts the referee so Low Ki can shove Micah off the top rope, and MVP goes to the outside and rams Micah into the rail before rolling him back inside and making a series of covers that all get one count.
Micah winds up in trouble for a bit but hits a Samoan drop and makes the hot tag to Drew, who comes in and cleans house on Low Ki, just tossing Ki into the corner like a rag doll and stomping him into putty. Drake comes in and pops King up into an inverted powerslam, then tosses MVP out to the floor. Micah goes to the top rope and takes out the entire BDC with a dive to the floor, but suddenly Homicide comes out of the crowd and attacks the Rising to cause a DQ. The BDC swarms the Rising, and MVP gives Homicide a big hug before Homicide goes back to working the Rising over with a tire iron. The BDC all raise their hands as they stand over the fallen Rising.

TNA Tag Team Championship Picture Segment:
The Hardys come out to the ring and Jeff says he’s glad to have Matt back and leads the fans in a “Hardy’s revenge” chant to play off of the match with Storm last week. Now it’s time for the Hardys to move onto something they’ve never done before: win the TNA World Tag Team Title. Matt says it’s been two months since they’ve stood side by side in the ring, and they’re focused on winning the TNA World Tag Team Title. He tells Eddie Edwards to get well and they’ll give the Wolves a title shot when they’re back, but that title is going to be theirs and oh wait, here comes Ethan Carter III and Tyrus. EC3 says the Hardys have had adequate careers, but he has been unbeaten for 19 months. EC3 says he hasn’t had a title shot for some reason, so he’s going to take the TNA World Tag Team Title. He needs a partner, and he found someone who came to him and says he just likes to hurt people, so his partner will be Bram, who comes out and says he’s in a bad mood because the thought of teaming with anyone makes his skin crawl.
He hates everybody, but lucky for EC3, he hates him the least and he just wants to beat up the Hardys. EC3 says he’s the odds on favorite with Bram by his side, but Ken Anderson comes out and says he’s the odds on favorite to have the world’s smallest wiener, then he introduces his tag team partner Rockstar Spud. Here comes Austin Aries to say that he’s hearing a lot of people throwing the word great around and saying they deserve to be a champion, but we all know there’s nobody greater than the Greatest Man Who Ever Lived. He has a World Title shot he can use anytime he wants, but he’s greedy and will focus on winning the TNA World Tag Team Title for now. His partner will be someone who almost approaches Aries in greatness, a former TNA World Champion, and a man he held the tag title with before the “It Factor” Bobby Roode.
