Coming into the episode, there was lots to look forward to. From the World Championship steel cage clash between Brian Cage and Sami Callihan, to the street fight between arch-rivals Ace Austin and Eddie Edwards, it was looking set to be quite the evening for Impact fans. Coming away from the episode, we now have a whole host of angles and matches to entice our appetite.

Sami Callihan is the new World Champion, with Tessa Blanchard confronting him after the match to indicate her desire to challenge for the championship. Meanwhile, Ken Shamrock was confronted by 'The King of Dong Style' Joey Ryan, Jordynne Grace cemented her status as the next in line to challenge for Jordynne Grace's Knockouts Championship, and Su Yu... sorry, Suzie made her return to our screens.
