Impact started out with the footage of the attack on Jake at the ROH show. CM Punk with Colt and Ace right after the footage. "TNA I am back. And you all don't have to thank me for getting rid of that addict they had as champion," Punk says. "You Suck Punk!" The fans yell. "You know that is just the kind of attitude I would expect from idiots like you. People that actually cheered for Jake Reed. But I'm not mad just very disappointed in all of you," Punk says.
Colt Cabana takes the microphone from Punk. "And I'm disappointed that Back to the Future the Ride is closing," Colt says. Ace takes the microphone. "Yeah I know, but it had a good run I mean like 15 years," Ace says. "Yeah but I never got to ride it," Colt says. "Dude it's not over yet I mean go ride it later," Ace says. "Alright see yeah," Colt says as he starts to leave. Punk drags him back. "What are you doing? Were not done yet. Jake Reed I am here to challenge your for the NWA title," Punk says.
Christopher Daniel's music starts to play. Daniels comes to the ramp. "Oh what Daniels you to stir up our past. Well come down here I took you out of ROH I will take you out of TNA," Punk yells. Daniels stays on the ramp an angry fire in his eyes. AJ Style's music plays as he makes his way to the ramp and stands next to Daniels. Punk is doing wrist warm ups daring them to come down.
"Talk about tense situation you have two of Jake Reed's best friends facing off with the three men that tired to take him out of wrestling for good," Mike Tenay says. "Come AJ I would love to kick your ass to," Punk taunts. AJ and Daniels charge to the ring but get caught coming in Ace and Colt are working them down. Punk uses cheap shots when ever AJ or Christopher starts to get the advantage. Rhino hits the ring and gores Ace Steel who is the first to turn around and see him. Rhino goes to give Colt a power slam but Punk clips Rhino's leg and than hits him in the head over and over again with the microphone.
Ace has gotten up and has a chair witch he is using to choke AJ. "Come on Reed, where are you?" Punk taunts before going to hitting Rhino with the mike while Colt uses tape to choke Daniels. "This is the NWA champion that never backs down. Come on Reed I'm taking you best friend and two guys that have saved your ass to many times to count! I know it Reed you are scared?" Punk says.
"Your real brave there CM Punk, you know full well that Jake Reed is still in a hospital bed in Philadelphia," Mike Tenay says angrily on commentary. "This guy is just trying to bait Jake Reed into coming back way too early," Don West says. Finally security runs down to break up the beat down.
Jim Cornett comes down and gets right in CM Punk's face. "Alright you little piss faced bastard, I already checked and I can't fire you and your two idiot friends but I can make your life a living hell," Jim says. "Bring it on old man," Punk says. "Next week Punk you're going to have to the gauntlet. Rhino, AJ Styles, and Christopher Daniels are all going to take a piece of your ass," Jim says. "It doesn't matter because I am better than you! I am better than the fans and better than every idiot in that locker room," Punk yells.
AJ has recovered and tackles Punk and lands several blows before security breaks it up. Punk and Ace break free and go after AJ. It takes several minutes for everything to settle down and for security to force everyone to the back.
While all this was going on Jake was just as Mike said in a hospital bed in Philadelphia. The Pepsi Plunge had given Jake a concussion, a broken noise and a fractured cheek bone. Both of eyes had swollen up the left one nearly closed. While he didn't lose any teeth his jaw was so sore he could only eat liquids.
Traci walked in the room from one of the forced breaks the hospital made her take. "Jake I'm back," she said not knowing anything else to say. "How was your break?" Jake asked. "Like all the other ones I kept watching the clock until that battle ax nurse said I "should" come back," Traci says. "How much longer until I they said I could travel?" Jake asked for what had to be the hundredth time that day.
Traci took his hand in hers. "Two more days. I talked to Dixie and she and Jim are going to have a private plan take us to home," Traci says feeling helpless. Even though he didn't say it Jake was in pain all of the time. Worse he refused to take any type of pain killers even though an IV because it had been pain killers and alcohol that had started his addictions.
"I want to kill that SOB," Jake says suddenly. Truth is he hadn't talked about Punk at all yet. "Jake look…" Traci trailed off not knowing what to say. "No Traci truth is I have wanted to kill him since I realized you were dating him. I just wanted to drive up to Chicago and beat his head his head in. I guess what I'm trying to say is… Traci I'm going to go all out. I want to hurt him," Jake says.
Traci is a little taken back until she realizes that Jake is telling here this because is afraid of losing her because of what he may do to Punk. "Jake I know you and I know that you know how far to take it. And I know that as badly as you want revenge you won't go over the line. And know this I love you. I'm your wife and right here (she puts his hand on her stomach that is now clearly showing that she is pregnant) is the real proof," Traci says. "I love you. Only you," Jake says. "I know. And I love you and only you," Traci says as she leans down to kiss him.
