Sanity and Bludgeon Brothers Segment

Sanity’s Alexander Wolfe says that the tag team is here to break the status quo. Eric Young says that they are not here for the nostalgia and that The New Day’s and Team Hell No’s time in the sun is over. All that is left, according to Young, is the “pure and unadulterated chaos”. The camera then focuses on the Bludgeon Brothers, as Erick Rowan slowly takes off his mask to say, “Let the bludgeoning begin”.

We’re in for a heck of a ten-man tag match.

The Bludgeon Brothers and Sanity vs. The New Day and Team Hell No

Alexander Wolfe hit Xavier Woods with a German Suplex, and Rowan aggressively tagged himself in. This makes it interesting to see if Sanity and the Bludgeon Brothers will be able to work together. Rowan hit Woods with a backbreaker and an elbow drop before Harper tagged in. Harper and Woods started grappling, with Harper continuing to wear down the smaller opponent.

Killian Dain tagged himself in for Harper and forcibly ordered Harper to exit the ring so that he could inflict some punishment on Woods. I love how all five of these heels are imposing and want a piece of The New Day’s perceived weak link, but an implosion also feels inevitable.

Woods was out to prove that he is no weak link, as he started hitting all the heel tag team members on the apron before Dain dropped him.

Harper and Rowan kept on isolating Woods with double team moves, but Big E and Kofi Kingston decided to rush the ring. The heels proceeded to dump them all out of the ring, but Woods started to come back with a big DDT to Harper. And who did Woods tag in? Daniel Bryan.

Immediately, Bryan went after Eric Young and started to fly around the ring, as is customary for the GOAT. He took out Dain and Wolfe at ringside before drilling Young with a running dropkick in the corner and a hurricanrana off the top rope. Next? Those lovely YES! kicks, though Young countered the last one into a roll-up. Bryan got out of it and went for the YES! Lock, but it was broken up.

We got a chokeslam from Kane, a missile dropkick from Woods, Trouble in Paradise from Kofi, and more massive moves from the likes of the Bludgeon Brothers and The New Day. This is exactly what we came to see! Big moves and chaos in a ten-man tag that is breaking down!

Big E threw Killian Dain to the outside and then hit his massive spear!

Eric Young was in the ring alone with Daniel Bryan, who took advantage with a Running Knee for a big tag match W.

After the match, Bryan stood on the stage and tried to summon the fire that shoots up like Kane does. He started pumping himself up and the crowd to do it for a third time, and it worked! Brilliant!

Grade: A-, this was awesome! Everything I wanted to see happened, and I’d love to see a Big E vs. Killian Dain and an Eric Young vs. Daniel Bryan tag match. When ten-men tag matches are done right, they look great. Props to all ten of these men for putting on a show in the main event of Extreme Rules’s go-home show on SmackDown Live.
