Commentary sold it well. Made it feel unexpected when obviously it was planned.

Loved Taz saying Holy Shit. Wish it aired live but Smackdown on broadcast TV wouldn't allow it.

Yeah, I think it comes down to pretty much know it’s coming now when it’s getting set up. That first time you’re not ready for it, so it’s like holy shit!
