IMPACT World Champion Josh Alexander is headed to the ring after finding out that Steve Maclin was going through his belongings earlier.

Josh Alexander says that he has respect for Steve Maclin as a pro wrestler and even more as a combat veteran. But what he doesn’t respect is how Maclin complains about management holding him back. Alexander says that he hasn’t been ducking Maclin, it’s the other way around. Alexander declares that their IMPACT World Title match at Rebellion will happen and on that night, he will send Maclin back to the bottom of the totem pole. Alexander says that Maclin is afraid of failing and becoming a “forgotten son”. Speaking of Maclin, his music hits and he addresses Alexander from the top of ramp. Maclin says that he’s obsessed with winning the IMPACT World Title, showing footage of him scouting Alexander during several of his matches last year. Alexander admits that he underestimated what Maclin is capable of. Alexander challenges him to meet him in the ring but Maclin says no. Maclin says that if he’s going to defeat Alexander, he’s going to do it in his hometown of Toronto at Rebellion.

IMPACT! goes off the air.
