After the match, Jordynne Grace came to the ring and had a stare down with Yim to end the show.
Yim recently returned to the company at the Under Siege IMPACT plus special following her release from WWE. This will be Yim's second time challenging for the belt, as she failed to win a Queen Of The Mountain match at this year's Slammiversary. That match was instead won by Jordynne Grace, who Yim will be challenging.
Yim and Grace are set to face one another at the upcoming Emergence special, which will air live on Impact Plus.
Here is the current lineup for IMPACT Emergence:
IMPACT Emergence (8/12)
- IMPACT Knockouts Championship: Jordynne Grace (c) vs. Mia Yim
