You don't have to be an industry insider to know that a lot of people were displeased with how the whole Fiend vs. Rollins match played out. I mean we all heard the 'AEW' chants when the match ended the way it did. Honestly, after what was a great build and a great match until the finish, it was a real disappointment.
But was the HIAC match the premise for something bigger? We all saw that the match ended with Rollins bleeding after The Fiend applied the mandible claw. We could definitely see a First Blood match being announced for Survivor Series between Seth Rollins and The Fiend.

We know that WWE wants to head down an edgier path now and a First Blood match could be the perfect way to bring back violence, albeit in a controlled manner, to the roster.
