Backstage: The Deaners are disgusted by Eric Young and Joe Doering’s interference just a few minutes ago. Cody Deaner and Young go way back to when Cody was just training to become a wrestler. He once called Young his family, but now, he wants to prove to the “World Class Maniac” that he’s not a nobody; he’s a somebody!
“Next week I will prove to @TheEricYoung that I am not a nobody.”
We’ve never seen this passionate side of @CodyDeaner before. #IMPACTonAXSTV @JakeSomething_ pic.twitter.com/V7Ok3mhKAS

Deonna Purrazzo and Kimber Lee head on down to the ring. The Knockouts Champion is calling out Su Yung for her haunting presence the last couple of weeks. She says if she wants to end this, now is the time to do it. The Undead Bride’s music hits, and she arrives down to the ring! After, Father James Mitchell’s music hits. Father James Mitchell tells Su that he doesn’t want to do this, but he says that tonight, she will pay for her sins.
Eerie music begins to play, and Su’s former Undead Bridesmaids slowly walk down the ramp and surround themselves all around the ring. Deonna Purrazzo runs into the ring and drives her forearm into Yung. Purrazzo stops Yung in time before receiving the red mist and begins choking her. Purrazzo sends her out with her Cosa Nostra (gotch style piledriver). The Undead Bridesmaids lift Yung out of the ring and take her to the back.
What the hell did we just witness?!
