Matt Riddle and Killian Dain worked their f*cking a*ses of in a hard hitting scrap that finally paid off what's felt light months of futile fighting across the black-and-gold brand.

Like everything else they've done so far, this was worthy work but emotionally empty.

There was arm damage here that wasn't really focussed upon. Riddle's body was dismantled by the brutality, yet Dain failed to zero in on any of it. Like a Braun Strowman brawl scaled down to fit inside a petrol station, this was a mini-mart of a match that only sold pies and antifreeze instead of the odd f*cking injured limb once in a while.

This made loud noises, but none of the right ones until 'The Original Bro' got the win to finally put the feud out to pasture and himself back into a match that matters.
