Total swerve I don't think I saw anyone saying Pac, how do we feel about this?

I was hyped for Evil Uno, but this works and I could easily see Pac joining BCC by the end of this, I don't really see Death Triangle coming back anytime soon. Blood and Guts is going to have some crazy spots!!!

Pac honestly makes perfect sense there in hindsight, and he did a wonderful job in his short promo time last night. Obviously, being from England the Blackpool aspect of it is a natural fit, his style both in-ring and as a character fits perfectly with the group, and he's extremely ready for a strong heel run after being in the background for a bit for the last little while. I hope his addition to BCC is permanent and not just for this match.

I think he's a good fit, but this is kinda like saying "Obviously being from America makes Mox a good fit to join the Hollywood Hunks" lol

I can see where you're coming from there for sure, but I guess it's more the sense that it was a tad silly that there wasn't anyone from England in a faction named Blackpool Combat Club ever since Regal left. Regionally named factions without anyone in the faction being at least presented as being vaguely from the area is an odd concept to me.

I would remark that it would be equally silly if there wasn't any American or anyone presented as being vaguely American in style in the Hollywood Hunks and would probably make the same note if they finally added an American to that faction.

I don't live too far from Blackpool and the idea of them presenting a Geordie as vaguely from the area would bring me no end of joy.

yeah i could see that working in a non-American promotion so that tracks for a non-English one, totally fair

I would unironically love Ryan and Jon interacting

Ryan just needs to sort out that walk and he's ready for the main event.

I don't know that he'd join BCC but it makes sense that he's in the match. He's had a long, well documented hatred for Kenny.

PAC makes sense, but taking about 5th men, Kota Ibushi being on the other side to make it the Golden Elite completely steals the hype of BCC having PAC.

The inevitable Golden Lovers story comes to AEW!

I think he’s a perfect fit, and I like him better as a heel; It’s hard to be a face when you wear your hair like the girl from the Ring.

It’ll be interesting to see if he interacts with Death Triangle though. I know they’ve been on RoH lately but still, I’d like to see some closure between the three of them in some way.

Have Pac and Moxley ever faced each other in WWE as Neville and Ambrose? I know Ambrose didn't go to NXT but I can't recall if they ever came across each other during the Shield stuff? I remember Cesaro and Neville doing stuff in NXT.

They teamed together years ago, I'm going to have to watch that to see if there are any call backs come blood and guts.
