"Acclaimed, you two have been on our radar for a few years now...Two lads with unrivalled potential. But how you choose to use that potential, that doesn't sit right with us. Too caught up making your funny little jokes, too busy scissoring each other. You two are an embarrassment to this job that we love. So this Saturday on Collision, you two lads are going to learn a very, very important lesson from the veterans".

The match with Max Caster and Anthony Bowens has yet to be confirmed, and the wait may continue following Caster's claims that he has been suspended.
