– IMPACT World Champion Steve Maclin then makes his way down to the ring and declares that the match against PCO at Under Siege is not happening because he “killed” PCO, but he will defend his title against an opponent of his choosing – Champagne Singh. Singh and Shera then join Maclin in the ring when IMPACT President Scott D’Amore interrupts. D’Amore then overturns Maclin’s decision to have Singh challenge for his title. D’Amore then says that he is happy to have Maclin as the IMPACT World Champion as long as he is a fighting champion. D’Amore then tries to strike a deal with Maclin, promising that if Maclin beats his opponent at Under Siege, he will personally hand him the IMPACT World Title like he said he would at Rebellion. Maclin then ups the ante and D’Amore agrees to the terms if Maclin wins at Under Siege, D’Amore will put the title around his waist. D’Amore then reveals that PCO will still be Maclin’s opponent as the lights go out and Perfect Creation One appears in the ring. PCO then takes out Singh and Shera as Maclin retreats up the ramp. PCO then stands tall with the World Title as IMPACT Wrestling goes off the air.
