BACKSTAGE, Regal is all happy with Bryan, Jon, and Wheeler. They are all fired up. Bryan says Yuta is fighting with them, and tonight they will face The Gunn Club.

DARBY video package. The wedding song plays as he slowly walks up towards a coffin outline. He shoves it over, tells Andrade he’d like to put a nail in this whole thing.

MALAKAI BLACK wonders if Fuego’s hopes and dreams are the same as when he was a child. Black wonders if they cut open his neck, push his hands through the wound, and open his throat, what would they find? A dark abyss of razor blades. Maybe one day he’ll appreciate them, but for now, he appreciates a fanbase that thanks him because the house wanted it so. The house gives, and takes, and now they will take the brightest light and drag it down the deepest part of his soul, and if you wonder why he is alone, he wants you to be afraid of the shadows.

JAS gets a voice-over intro from Matt Menard. Hager, Jericho, and Garcia are ready for action. There’s a JR lookalike in the crowd that stumps Jim Ross. Haha.

There were moments where it was a bit sloppy, but rightfully so considering who was involved. IT was good when it needed to be, and although I wish they’d end the feud here, I’m not quite over it, yet. I suppose if it was just a bit better in the wrestling I could call it a….no, you know what. This was a certified…..BANGER!!!!!!!

Marvez is backstage laughing at MJF. MJF is pissed. Have we forgotten who he is? He is the prodigy, the phenom, the pro. It’s so funny what happened to him. No sympathy for the devil? That’s ok. He doesn’t need it; he has money. Sterling is with him. MJF has the right to book or not book Wardlow against anyone. This means no more just showing up for no reason. MJF is going to put Wardlow to work. He has the best idea, too.

MJF hands money over and The Butcher walks into frame as the paid assassin.

Sonjay on the mic. He congratulates Joe! Lethal promised a gift, and here it is. Lethal has a box. We get the reveal, and it’s Lethal flipping Joe off.

The lights go out!!!

They are back on, and it’s a tall ass dude. We learn that it’s Satnam Singh, some former NBA dude.

There are heavy boos from the crowd, and although I don’t want to speak for a mass of people, I think a bulk of the boos come from the distaste for this big dude, and not for the heelish tactics that are on display.

The three guys attack Joe, Singh squeezes Joe’s head while Jay hits a Lethal Injection, and we end the show on a sour note.
