In my opinion, this was the pay-per-view of the year

Let me club two bests in one, in this particular piece. Even though the arrival of a masked superstar at the end of the match is the most talked about thing on the internet right now, the match in itself was amazing. Michael Elgin proved why he is one of the most underrated performers in all of pro wrestling.

Brian Cage was a great dance partner and it must have been great for him to get such a solid match under his belt after getting injured in his previous outing. While the masked man who interfered is almost certainly Rhyno, meaning that Elgin will be removed from the title picture going forward, I'm glad to report that despite all the controversy that surrounds him, he proved that he belongs in the ring.

I'm honestly glad that Brian Cage won because he needed the win. But that brings us to a big problem.
