Edwards said he was there for one reason, and that was to beat Davey Richards’ ass. Edwards said that’s something he thought he would never say, but last week was a true low point in his career and in his life. Edwards said that having his wife attacked was a line you do not cross. Edwards screamed for Davey to come out and take his ass whipping like a man.

Angelina Love emerged from the back. She said it doesn’t work that way. Love said that Eddie doesn’t get Davey when he wants, he gets Davey when Angelina says he gets Davey. Angelina asked where Eddie was when Davey tore his ACL? She asked where Eddie was when she was nine months pregnant? She said that Eddie was too busy doing his own thing, chasing the World Title. Angelina then introduced “The American Wolf” Davey Richards.

Mathews said that Richards did what he did out of jealousy. Angelina said Davey carried Eddie … Eddie interrupted and told her to give Davey his balls back. Richards said he created the Wolves, and he picked Eddie out from the bottom. Davey said that he was already a name and Eddie was a nobody. Davey told Eddie to walk away, or he was going to come down and expose him. Eddie charged at Richards, and the brawl began on the aisle. Security poured out from the back to separate them. Eddie grabbed a mic and said this isn’t over. Edwards demanded a street fight tonight.

– Mike Bennett is throwing a bachelor party for Braxton Sutter, who has no interest in being there. Bennett introduces Sutter to the most random collection of guys I’ve ever seen, including some old guy who he said was 28.

– Back from the break, the Hardys are walking through the lobby of the arena in Tijuana.

– Sutter is at his bachelor party. Some guy named Kyle said he needed to loosen up, and he had something for that. The joke here, apparently, is that Kyle is a drug dealer. Sutter tries to leave and Bennett tells him he can’t. Then, Bennett got a little angry, and said if Sutter leaves, Bennett needs to go home. A fat guy then climbs a ladder, rubs his exposed belly and jumps onto the drug dealer, who is on the coach, crushing him.

– In-arena: Tyrus is hosting the Fact of Life segment. Tyrus brought out someone who he said “wasn’t my friend, and he’s not yours.”

Drake entered with a sling and seemed to be awfully upset that Tyrus was sitting in his chair. Drake took off the sling and slammed it down. He took the mic and said that no one deserves to hear his voice, but he said Tyrus needs some truth. Drake said his arm was fine. Drake blamed Tyrus for accepting a 3-on-2 match against D.C.C. last week. Drake said he left Tyrus last week because something needed to be made clear. Drake said he pays him to watch his back. Drake told Tyrus that he’s the one who wrestles in the main event, and Tyrus is the guy who watches them. That’s how it’s going to be.

Drake said he owned the Fact of Life show, and more importantly, he owns Tyrus. … Tyrus grabbed Drake by the neck and said no one owns him, and next week, he’ll see him in that ring.

– Back in Tijuana, someone on the staff at the show finds Konnan, and tells him that the Hardys are here. Konnan said he has no money to pay them to be on the show, and the messenger said the Hardys don’t want any money.

Konnan meets with the Hardys backstage. Matt said that they are there for titles, not for pesos. Hardy said that money is for marks. Konnan said that they have their match, as long as they don’t want any money. Konnan tells his guy that they hit the lottery, and to go get as much bootleg Hardy stuff as he can, and sell it quick.

Laurel opened a gift from Maria, and it’s the most see-through thing in the history of lingerie. Maria told Allie to get bridesmaid dresses. Maria also told Allie she would be a ring bearer next week. Maria then threw some cupcake frosting at Allie and she left with Laurel and Sienna.

– Backstage in Mexico, Matt said it was time to procure the championship. Matt tells Vanguard 1 to map out a strategic exit plan, because they will need to take the titles with them after they win.

– Backstage: Eli Drake grabs a cameraman and looks into the camera, telling Tyrus that next week, he’ll his hands on him, but it might be more than that. Drake said Tyrus might find himself wrapped around a 32-inch bat. Drake said he’ll beat on him with a bat until his career is over.

– In-arena: Lashley is introduced for a promo. He tells the crowd that he’s still the World Hvt. champion. Lashley called himself the baddest man on the planet. Lashley said he loves to fight and he lives to battle. He said he doesn’t care if it’s wrestling or MMA, there isn’t a fighter alive who can hang with him.

That brought out the debuting Josh Barnett. Mathews introduced him as he walked to the ring, saying he is a former UFC heavyweight champion. Barnett grabbed a mic and said it was good to see “Bob.” Barnett said he heard a lot of bold proclamations. Barnett said he’s been in the corner for a lot of Lashley’s wins, but he’s not living up to the expectations of being a champion. Barnett said he was severely disappointed in Lashley. Barnett said he was there, on Impact, to show Lashley a lesson. Barnett said he needed to bring up Lashley in the ring, so he can be worthy of carrying that belt.

Lashley said he wanted to be the first person to welcome him to the Impact Zone. Lashley said that Barnett has been a top-10 fighter for the last 20 years. Lashley said in MMA there are rules, and in Lashley’s world, there are no rules, so as tough as Barnett is, he shouldn’t come into this world and tell Lashley anything. Barnett snatched Lashley’s arm into an arm bar, but let him go. Lashley said if Barnett wanted a fight, then let’s fight.

Barnett said that if Lashley wants to act like the champ, he needs to put the championship on the line. Barnett told Lashley not to “punk out.” Lashley said he would fight anyone at any time. Lashley said he accepts his proposition, and he’ll see him in the ring.

– Everyone is passed out at Sutter’s bachelor party. So, he gets up and tries to walk out. He walks over to Bennett, who is passed out. Sutter removes the old guy who wanted to watch the porn from the couch and then lays the ugly stripper on his lap, taking a picture with his phone and then, for some reason, calling Maria and putting the phone down?

– Eddie Edwards is out first for the main event. Angelina Love then comes out to introduce Richards, but he runs through the crowd and attacks Edwards.
