And once it became clear that the music was going to keep going, that made it feel even crazier. And every time the camera seemed to 'find' someone else fighting, there was straight up carnage going down. It was bonkers for a while there. And that visual of EK coming to the ring with intentions of for setting Jericho on fire...wow.

I went into that match with something other than high hopes for real. But once that music kept going and it was clear that they were serious about making it as ugly as possible, it worked on me pretty well. I'm holding onto some excitement about BCC and I might be guilty of trusting (and loving) BD and Regal too much. But whatever..I like them in general even if I only want Mox in doses and/or in certain situations.
