From IMPACT:

The longstanding rivalry between Tommy Dreamer and Bully Ray will have its next chapter written when they meet in the first-ever Busted Open match at Sacrifice. During the LIVE in-ring edition of Busted Open at No Surrender, Bully crossed the line once again when he scalded Dreamer with hot coffee, damaging his retina in the process. A fired-up Dreamer would lay out the challenge, and Director of Authority Santino Marella made the match official. The first person to make their opponent bleed will be declared the winner.

Also, following Mickie James defeating Gisele Shaw on March 9, it is now confirmed that she will go ahead and defend the title against Jordynne Grace on March 24 on IMPACT Plus.

In addition to that, Trey Miguel will defend his X-Division Championship against an opponent personally handpicked by Santino Marella.

Rounding out the card, Josh Alexander will team up with Rich Swann and Frankie Kazarian against KUSHIDA and reigning NJPW STRONG Tag Team Champions, the Motor City Machine Guns.

From IMPACT:

Before Josh Alexander defends the IMPACT World Title against KUSHIDA at Multiverse of Matches: Only the STRONG Survive, momentum will be up for grabs less than one week prior in a six-man tag team showdown at Sacrifice. On one side, Alexander will team up with Rich Swann and Frankie Kazarian. Meanwhile, KUSHIDA will join forces with his longtime allies and reigning NJPW STRONG Tag Team Champions, the Motor City Machine Guns. These two teams may respect each other, but there’s nothing they won’t do to score the all-important victory!
