Hager and Jericho meet Danielson and Moxley in the middle of the ring to exchange strikes and lose out in the end. They both lay in the hammer and anvil elbows and then lock in Submissions. LeBell Lock and Bulldog Choke. Eddie Kingston emerges on the ramp with a can of gasoline. He pours the gasoline over Jericho and Danielson and Bryan brawls with Eddie. Mox splits them up and Jericho attacks him with a chair. Hager sends Moxley into the Barbed Wire and then Jericho hits the Judas Effect on Kingston. Jericho and Hager take Danielson out with the Turnbuckle Hook but Danielson kicks out at two. They pick him up again and Danielson fights them both off on his own with kicks. Danielson hits the Busaiku Knee to Hager and the same to Jericho holding a chair and Jericho kicks out at two. We see Moxley still trapped in barbed wire as Danielson kicks a hole in Jericho’s chest and then one to the head then says he’s about to kick his fucking head in. Jericho is about to meet the boot of Bryan but Hager saves with Floyd the bat. Jericho locks in the Walls and Hager chokes Danielson with the ring rope to get the win. This was pure anarchy. Justin Roberts was right.
