A new vignette for Brian Myers airs.
Impact World Championship Match: Eddie Edwards (c) def. Sami Callihan via pinfall to retain. Before the bell, Rob Van Dam attacked Callihan on the stage. He answered the challenge anyway, going on to have a lengthy battle to renew their rivalry. Eddie retained with the Boston Knee Party. Eddie going over a former rival like Callihan is a great way to further solidify him as a main-eventer.
