-The Aces & Eights are shown on the tron with Joseph Parks being given food in the corner. The leader tells Hogan that he may have gotten them in "check", but the game is far from over. Once again he asks if they managed to lock Aces & Eights out, or if they managed to lock them in. He says they might just have to put that question to the test tonight, but one way or another, they'll see each other this Sunday.
-Back from commercial, Zema Ion is making his way to the ring, rocking the X-Division title, in street clothes. He says that he's ended careers just for the sake of the title. He mentions that Bound for Glory is this Sunday, and the X-Division Champion doesn't have a match, because there's no X-Division! Rob Van dam makes way out to the ring and says that he doesn't happen to have a match this weekend either, and Hulk Hogan told him to "take his pick." He kicks the Champion square in the jaw, and says "see you in Phoenix" before leaving the ring.
-Backstage Hogan and Sting are arguing over trusting Bully Ray. Bully walks in and Hogan blatantly says he doesn't trust him. Hogan tells Bully he's watched him "run his con" around Impact for two years, to which Bully asks "what have I done, that you haven't been doing your whole career?" Good question. Sting gets in both of their faces, and says that Bully needs Hogan's endorsement if they're going to pull off the victory on Sunday. Hogan says Bully has one chance, tonight, and that he better not let anybody down.
Commercial Break
-Tara interrupts Brooke Hogan, and gives her a list of all the perks and things she wants when she becomes Knockouts Champion. She also says that her "Hollywood Boyfriend" will be at Bound for Glory this Sunday, and is requesting a green room. Hogan tells Tara that she's not Champion yet, and rips up the list. Tara mentions the Kardashians before walking away.
The Tag Team Champions make their way down to the ring, followed by Bully Ray as we go to commercial break.
