The match ended in a time-limit draw, with Ricky Morton asking the crowd if they wanted both men to go five more minutes. Aldis denied the offer. Later in the show Aldis set up a high-stakes six man tag for today's show, which includes special guest...wrestling legend Scott Steiner.

A breaking news flash comes across the screen announcing that Nick Aldis' surprise appearance at this weekend's Ring of Honor event will be explained.

Powerrr intro. (INTO THE FIRE!!!)

Joe Galli and Stu Bennett welcome us to another edition of NWA Powerrr from Atlanta. They shoot us over to the interview desk with Dave Marquez. He introduces The Rock 'N' Roll Express. Marquez asks Morton about potentially challenging for the world championship. "The first thing that we always done in our life...we put the fans number one," says Morton. "You know these guys...they don't understand. Robert and I paved the way for these guys to make millions and millions of dollars." Morton says he was never one of those guys. He wakes up everyday and goes to work to be able to pay his bills because "that's what's it's all about." "Now Nick...I've told you before son....we have fought the best in the world." He puts over that they've been 9 time NWA tag team champions. He tells Aldis' team to lace them up tight, because tonight...they will take it to Strictly Business.
