Commentary quickly noted that this was the heavily rumoured debut of a major new tag team, already generating buzz in industry circles for their pedigree and attitude.This wasn’t about fighting.

Homicide and Killer Kross Brawled Through the Crowd in an Uncontrollable Fight
The animosity between Homicide and Killer Kross couldn’t be contained by the ring, as their fight spilled out into the crowd in a wild, unpredictable brawl that had fans scattering and officials scrambling. The initial conflict started at ringside, but within seconds, punches and slams were being exchanged over the barricade.Chairs were knocked over, fans were pushed back by security, and at one point, Homicide drove Killer Kross into a concrete wall near the tech area. The chaos felt real, loud, and uncomfortable in the best way possible. The cameramen struggled to keep up, offering shaky, documentary-style visuals that enhanced the atmosphere.This kind of segment taps into the idea that the fight is too personal to be contained, and commentary sold it as such—repeatedly reminding viewers of the dangers and the fines likely coming for both workers. Expect a stipulation match to be announced soon, because this clearly isn’t ending anytime soon. – DM
