We get a video of The System out on the town in Las Vegas, fine-dining at a restaurant where Moose says the meal is free while he sits with Brian Myers, Eddie, and Alisha Edwards. Eddie says nothing is going to slow them down, not even Nic Nemeth. Moose says from now on he only wants to be known as one thing – the TNA World Champion.
Nic Nemeth comes out with a microphone and talks about how he picked his moment to make himself known and how he wants to work his way up through the TNA roster. Nemeth says he will become the TNA World Champion.
Nemeth says he respects the talent in the locker room way too much to walk in and demand a World Title shot. He says he’s going to start at the bottom and work his way through the roster and to the top. This will be the first time he does it as NIC NEMETH.
Nemeth is then interrupted by Steve Maclin who makes his way out to the ring. Maclin says all he sees is a phony – someone who will suck the blood out of TNA and use it to go on somewhere else. He said nobody will remember Nic Nemeth, all they’ll ask is whatever happened to Dolph Ziggler.
Nemeth goes to talk and Maclin slaps the microphone out of his hand. Nemeth slaps Maclin and then nails him with the DANGER ZONE.
We go backstage to Gia Miller as she’s approached by Knockouts World Champion, Jordynne Grace. Gia points out that Grace is now a 3x Knockouts World Champion.
Grace points out that Trinity has been undefeated since she came into the company. Trinity walks up and gives Jordynne her props, but says she’s going to use her rematch clause next week and take back the Knockouts World Title.
Jai Vidal makes his way out to the ring in his hometown of Las Vegas. Vidal insults the Las Vegas crowd and says there’s nobody who can beat him. Suddenly, PCO is resurrected and makes his way out to the ring.
PCO beats the tar out of Jai Vidal and finishes him off with a PCO-sault off the top rope.
We go backstage to Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin talking about their match next week where they’ll team up with Kazuchika Okada and take on The System. Okada steps in to say that he returns to TNA next week.
We get a video package running down the rest of next weeks matches.
