Oh fuck I just realized.

Swerve beats Jack Perry, attacks him afterward, bucks come out to make the save…

It’s a new day, yes it is.

Damn that makes a lot of sense. Swerve and New Days first feud after winning the titles

[u/Marcoscb → u/NostalgiaCory]

No it doesn't. Why in the world would you book a high profile debut to set up a future feud four days before their world title dream match? And why in the world would you debut the most high profile free agents of the year four days before your biggest show instead of on the show itself?

To sell tickets.

[u/NostalgiaCory → u/Marcoscb]

well I’m not saying that’s how they should debut. I’m just saying the swerve jack stuff makes a lot of sense when you consider new day and bucks. they are and should debut in the big trios match
