He told Scott to think about it.
Gia Miller interviewed Deonna Purrazzo about the Queen of the Mountain match. Gia asked her why Mia Yim went right after her when she returned. Deonna said anytime anyone wants to make an impact, they come gunning for her. She's the face of the Knockouts division and that's not going to change. She said she was going to make history at Slammiversary. Knockouts Champion Tasha Steelz and Savannah Evans showed up. Steelz said they aren't friends but they have a common problem - Mia Yim.

They worked over both men and left them laying.
The action was good until the angle, which obviously sets up Sabin and Kazarian teaming.

They said the company has no respect and mocked it for 20 years worth of lies and disrespect. Rhino and Heath Miller showed up and said they sound stupid. Miller said they got fired, just like he did but Impact gave him a chance. Instead, they were disrespectful pieces of trash. Rhino said Impact is a company that doesn't handcuff you, but they are all complaining pieces of sh**. They went to fight but security held them all apart.
