In the main event, Josh Alexander defeated Alex Shelley to retain the Impact World Championship.

[1][2][3][4] The event featured several professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines.

[5] After the loss at Against All Odds and a severe reprimand from a returning Eric Young, Deaner and Joe Doering would spend the July 7 episode of Impact!

After the match, Sabin would hold Alexander's title before handing it back to him, but not before keeping a grip on it for a short time; all the while, Shelley looked on interested.

Later in the night, they would catch up with Impact Executive Vice President Scott D'Amore, talking about their new title aspirations.

[8][9] On that night, Shelley defeated Sabin, earning him his first Impact World Championship match against Alexander at Emergence.

At the same time, Alexander attempted to make the save but was prevented by having a backstage altercation and brawl with Shera and Raj Singh.

HNM would come out pleased with the result, until Heath appeared and sneak attacked Kenny King, causing more disarray for the group.

when Honor No More's Eddie Edwards, Kenny King, Matt Taven, and Mike Bennett defeated Bullet Club's Ace Austin, Chris Bey, and Impact World Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson); there, Taven would get the pinfall on Gallows.

[10][11] On the July 28 episode of Impact!, after Edwards (with King) defeated Austin (with Bey), Honor No More demanded Scott D'Amore give them a title match, before attending a commotion involving Bennett being attacked by Heath.

Later in the night, D'Amore confronted Honor No More outside as they were pulling wires from a production truck, causing technical difficulties with the broadcast.

Later in a backstage promo, HNM would talk about the serious consequences at Emergence with Edwards being happy with PCO and asking King to handle Heath.

[12] At Against All Odds, Moose defeated Sami Callihan in a Clockwork Orange House of Fun match due to interference from Steve Maclin for unknown reasons.

In response they would attack numerous members of the roster, leading to a match the next week with Josh Alexander and The Motor City Machine Guns.

Violent By Design's Deaner and Joe Doering would attack both Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin after their world championship number one contender's match.

[10][11] Two weeks later on Impact!, The Motor City Machine Guns defeated Deaner and Doering, only for the latter to conduct a post-match attack once again.

[17][18] At Slammiversary, Jack Evans was originally supposed to take part in the Impact X Division Championship Ultimate X match, but an injury forced him to withdraw and saw him replaced with Andrew Everett.

[25][26] After successfully defending his title at Against All Odds, Bailey would continue his run as champion by defeating Alan Angels on the July 7 episode of Impact!.

[17][18][23] On the July 14 episode of Impact!, Rosemary and Taya Valkyrie would be reunited with Havok after a trip to the Undead Realm.

To Rosemary's dismay, Havok had transformed from being dark and vicious to being Jessicka who is bubbly and positive like Taya.

[8][9] VXT (Deonna Purrazzo and Green) would continue their momentum the next week when they defeated Jordynne Grace and Mia Yim.

Kim would deny that request because they were receiving an Impact Knockouts World Tag Team Championship match against Rosemary and Valkyrie at Emergence instead.

Later in a backstage promo, Valkyrie would try to calm things down with Rosemary being frustrated with Jessicka's change of heart and the loss.

[8][9] On the July 21 episode of Impact!, Gujjar would again approach Myers while he is bragging to backstage workers to ask for a title shot.

To his surprise Crazzy Steve would claim the shot for Black Taurus, with Scott D'Amore forcing Myers to take the match.
