Rating: Nobody was expecting a great match from this, and it certainly wasn't, but it at least delivered a suitably loony spectacle for better or worse.

There's an obvious, unavoidable awkwardness to this match type that always makes it come off more than a little goofy, and that's really only exacerbated without a live audience, so they were smart to keep this pretty short.

Would it have been more entertaining as a cinematic match? Probably, but the sheer weirdness of watching an Inferno match in an empty arena surely speaks for itself.

To The Fiend's credit, he took those initial flames like a champ, and where else are you ever going to see a flaming RKO?

A bad match by any objective standard, but also mildly amusing schlock that committed harder to the insane danger of the gimmick than possibly any other Inferno-style match.

If you can't laugh at the demented absurdity of a Bray Wyatt mannequin getting set on fire to close out a WWE PPV, are you even a wrestling fan? 4/10
