The big multi-team tag match had the potential of going one of two ways. The first way could've been a complete nightmare. With that many bodies surrounding the ring, we could have had something similar to the last Tuesday night’s train wreck.
The other way is that all of the participants could just take a deep breath, analyse the situation, and do their part, respectively, to make sure the match delivers. Thankfully, the latter is what we got to see tonight.

I’ll be honest, I really expected to see this turn into one giant cluster. However, I ended up being pleasantly surprised at what transpired. All of the participants did their part in telling a fantastic story, which continues to build the tag team title situation as we head into the pay-per-view.
Above all, I was very happy to see Viktor and Konnor come out with the win. I have been lobbying for The Ascension to get some sort of a push for quite some time now. The work these guys put in during their time in NXT was being discounted due to their horrible booking on the main roster.
Tonight may have been a premature hint for an overzealous fan, but I honestly believe we are about to see some promising things happening for The Ascension.
