Scott D’Amore is in the ring with Kushida and Maclin. Scott says that every ending leads to a new beginning, and a new world champ will be crowned at Rebellion. Scott welcomes out Josh Alexander, who is accompanied by his wife and son. Josh gets a standing ovation. He thanks the crowd and reflects on the opportunities he had to reach the pinnacle of Impact. He remembers receiving his first Impact contract and now he’s become the longest-reigning Impact World Champion of all time. He gets a “best world champ” chant from Windsor. But now he has torn his triceps and is out indefinitely. He gets to go back to being a fan like his son. Josh says he’ll be watching Rebellion to see who becomes the new champ. Josh says Kushida is one of the most ruthless wrestlers in the world, and he can make Maclin tap out. He turns to Maclin and says he’s earned it his title shot, but he wishes it was against him. He warns both of them that if they hold it long enough, he’ll be coming back to reclaim what is his. “Thank you Josh” chant sounds off. Josh’s son grabs the title before he can hand it over. Josh talks to him and then hands the title to Scott. Maclin takes over and says now that the formality is done, he wants Scott to hand him the title. Maclin says this is Josh’s way out. D’Amore gets angry and can’t believe Maclin would try to goad Josh into a fight fresh off surgery. Scott says Maclin should’ve answered an open challenge or stepped to the champ man to man, but instead he’s a coward. Scott says he’s supposed to be unbiased, but he can’t right now. Scott reminds everyone that Kushida made Maclin tap out a couple weeks ago. Maclin says he won’t put his pride on the line in a match that doesn’t mean anything. Kushida steps to Maclin as Maclin declares himself the next champ. Maclin tells Kushida to enjoy the spotlight while it lasts, but Kushida drops Maclin with a Hoverboard Lock. Kushida dives out onto Maclin, who tried taking off with the title. Kushida raises the title in the ring.
