– We then head backstage, where Gia Miller interviews Santino Marella following his triumphant in-ring return at Rebellion. Marella says that he may compete from time to time but his main role will continue to be IMPACT Wrestling’s Director of Authority. Alisha Edwards then interrupts and demands that Marella does something about PCO putting her husband in a casket last Sunday. Marella then tells Alisha that she has a match and it’s next. Zicky Dice then says he has another opponent for Johnny Swinger’s quest to 50 wins and offers to cover his pay and Marella begrudgingly accepts.

– It is now time for Steve Maclin’s Changing of the Guard Ceremony. New IMPACT World Champion Steve Maclin makes his way down to the ring as he celebrates a Changing of the Guard in IMPACT Wrestling. Maclin is accompanied by security guards donning camouflaged attire. Maclin has requested that nobody be present at ringside during the ceremony. Maclin then says that despite capturing the IMPACT World Title at Rebellion, his mission is not complete because his goal was to defeat Josh Alexander, the longest-reigning IMPACT World Champion of all time, in Josh’s home country of Canada. Maclin then issues an open challenge to anyone who wants a shot at his title as long as they’re Canadian. IMPACT President Scott D’Amore then interrupts and accuses Maclin of ducking Nick Aldis. D’Amore then reminds us that Maclin waited until his back was turned to hit him with the championship at Rebellion. D’Amore then stands up for his country and says that he has the perfect Canadian to challenge him for the IMPACT World Title at Under Siege – Perfect Creation One. PCO then makes his way to the ring and attacks Maclin’s security. PCO then begins to fall victim to the numbers game when he breaks free and brawls with Maclin. PCO is then about to make a statement when Maclin escapes his wrath and retreats up the ramp. PCO then drives two members of security through a table and IMPACT Wrestling goes off the air.
Be careful what you wish for! @SteveMaclin wanted a Canadian and he got @PCOisNotHuman!#IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/bhD32zLaew
