Finally, after a minute, Jericho goes unconscious and the ref rings the bell. The Wyatts score the win.

After the match, Reigns and Ambrose got in Jericho’s face looking for an explanation. Jericho shoved his way past them both and left the ring while Reigns and Ambrose just watched in obvious frustration.

Travis’ Thoughts: Very entertaining match from start to finish, although the momentum noticeably lagged every time Strowman was in the ring. He’s still incredibly green at this point. Probably not ready for this kind of high-profile match. The ending is weird as it continues the feud but seems to set something up with Jericho, who probably won’t be around after this.
