A week after the return of Rich Swann, Eric Young had some statements to make. IMPACT Wrestling was under fire by their own World Champion. Eddie Edwards, Rich Swann, Scott D'Amore, weren't the only men who would feel the wrath of the World Class Maniac.
We saw two Knockouts matches tonight, including the main event which saw the in-ring return of Tenille Dashwood. Along with Kaleb Konley, Dashwood would face Jordynne Grace, hoping to elevate herself in the division by knocking off the former IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Champion.

We got a #Heath4IMPACT ad, this time with it lasting longer than thirty seconds. The production quality was a lot better this time around, probably because of the money that they'd stolen from Hernandez.
The money also bought several Cameo appearances by David Hasslehoff, Flavor Flav, Nancy Kerrigan, and Chuck Norris. D'Lo "DeLorean" Brown also appeared, giving Scott D'Amore guff for letting Heath get his truck repo'd by an actual Repo Man.
The Good Brothers interrupted a conversation between the IMPACT Wrestling Tag Team Champions, but were quickly sidetracked when they were challenged to a match by The Rascalz.

John E. Bravo was seen with several members of the Wrestle House cast, along with his Best Man Fallah Bahh.
Brian Myers flipped over a catering table when he was asked about his loss to Willie Mack last week.Tommy Dreamer came in, demanding he clean it up. After a few moments, Myers obliged, but said the next time they bump into each other, Dreamer better walk the other way.
Eric Young sends a message on IMPACT Wrestling
The Deaners came out for Cody Deaner's match. However, it never took place, as IMPACT Wrestling World Champion Eric Young blindsided the duo with the title. He demolished the tag team, spiking them with Piledrivers and trying to snap their ankles like Rich Swann.
He then picked up a microphone and asked if Eddie Edwards, Rich Swann, and Scott D'Amore were watching. IMPACT Wrestling Security tried to rush the ring, but were taken out by The World Class Maniac.
Scott D'Amore came to the ring as Young locked Jake in a heel hook. Young's former Team Canada Coach tried to talk some sense into him, leading to Young going after D'Amore next. He was cut off by the returning Eddie Edwards, who sent Young hightailing it to the stage. The former IMPACT Wrestling World Champion is back.
Eddie Edwards caught up with Scott D'Amore backstage, demanding his rematch that he's owed. D'Amore gave him the match at IMPACT Wrestling Victory Road. Edwards promised that he would end Eric Young.
Next up was the grudge match between Sami Callihan and Rob Van Dam. If Rob Van Dam won, Katie Forbes would get five minutes in the ring with IMPACT Wrestling's Hacker.
Rob Van Dam w/Katie Forbes vs Sami Callihan on IMPACT Wrestling
Sami Callihan took the fight to Rob Van Dam early on, attacking him before the match began. Thanks to distractions by Katie Forbes, the ECW legend was always able to get back in the match. A Rolling Thunder, although sloppy, connected early.
A series of rolling kicks on the floor pelted the former IMPACT Wrestling World Champion, but back inside the ring, Callihan immediately took over. Callihan caught Van Dam with some kicks to the hamstring before hitting a running headbutt. The Draw bounced RVD around the ring, but an attack by Forbes allowed Rob Van Dam to hit a springboard side kick.
Callihan managed to break a pinfall with the ropes. RVD docked in a camel clutch, but Callihan bit the hands to break free. He was then locked in a body scissors, with RVD cutting him off from the ropes. Eventually, though, he broke free, and caught RVD with a DDT for the two.
Katie Forbes distracted Callihan, and as the ref was distracted by Rob Van Dam, Forbes blinded him with hair spray. RVD rolled up Callihan for the win.
Results: Rob Van Dam defeated Sami Calllihan via pinfall on IMPACT Wrestling
Grade: C
Katie Forbes didn't wait long to start her five minutes, as she set up Callihan in the corner for a running hip attack. Callihan stood up, looking to finally drop her with a piledriver. Unfortunately for Callihan, RVD made the save. The IT Couple of IMPACT Wrestling were unable to derail the Callihan Death Machine, however.
As Rob Van Dam jumped up to the rope, a chair bounced off his head sending him to the floor. Callihan spiked Forbes with the Cactus Special, counting the three for himself.
Ace Austin and Madman Fulton claimed that they were next in line for a shot at the IMPACT Wrestling Tag Team Championship.
The North stepped up to them, challenging them to a match next week. Would Fulton and Austin be able to knock off one of the greatest tag teams on the planet?
Tenille Dashwood w/Kaleb Konley vs Jordynne Grace on IMPACT Wrestling
Though Thicc Mama Pump had the upper hand at the beginning, the former IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Champion was sent to the floor with a nasty yank of the hair by Tenille Dashwood thanks to a distraction from Kaleb Konley.
Tenille Dashwood planted Grace with a reverse DDT, earning a two-count. She followed up with a straight jacket submission, but Grace overpowered her, hammering her with elbows and nearly connecting with the Grace Driver.
Clubbing clotheslines to the front and back of Dashwood weakened her, and she was planted with a Michinoku Driver for a very near fall. As Grace set up for a superplex, Dashwood dropped her off, leaving her in the tree of woe. Dashwood followed up with the diving double stomp before hitting The Taste of Tenille. Grace still kicked out.
Grace was able to catch Dashwood with a rolling spinebuster for yet another close-call. Dashwood escaped a German suplex, but was caught with a club to the jaw. As Grace set up for the Grace Driver again, Kaleb distracted the former IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts Champion.
Thanks to that, Dashwood rocked Grace with the Spotlight Kick, giving her the win.
Results: Tenille Dashwood defeated Jordynne Grace via pinfall on IMPACT Wrestling.
