Absolutely incredible main event, so much great poo poo in this and that's if you ONLY count what Fenix was doing, let alone Mox and PAC and Kenny and yes even the Good Brothers.

Yeah. Real hot angle to end it too I was wondering why we had no Bullet Club references on commentary for the match till we got to the end and whelp
