Chris Jericho did not disappoint

The much-anticipated match between the two Winnipeg titans finally took place, and boy did it deliver!

As promised, it was a hard-hitting affair and saw several spots where both superstars put their bodies through tremendous pain for our entertainment. Unsurprisingly, it was Omega who took most of the damage. He was busted open mid-way into the match when Jericho slammed his head multiple times. There were some absolute crazy spots which saw Omega go straight through the announce table and Jericho also put the Walls Of Jericho on Red Shoes'(the referee) son.

The two had some incredible back and forth action throughout the match and Jericho showed a side to him that we haven't seen in years in WWE. It was a surprisingly long match as well, going well over half an hour.

Ultimately and unsurprisingly, but rightfully, it was Kenny Omega who defeated Jericho to retain the United States Championship after hitting a one-winged angel onto a steel chair.
