While six-man tag matches are often seen as an ugly hybrid of a traditional tag team bout and a classic Survivor Series outing, it was hard to ignore the anticipation of seeing two of the company’s most popular stables finally locking horns - despite the fact both actually went into the match as heels.

The visual of seeing the six Superstars going face-to-face sent the Minneapolis crowd into a frenzy and the excitement level continued throughout the twenty-two-minute bout that was the highlight of a card that included Randy Orton's Elimination Chamber victory.

Chaos reigned in an out-all faction war, however it was Bray Wyatt’s haunting hold on his followers that saw him lead his trio to victory. Taking Dean Ambrose out during a mealy in the crowd, ordering Luke Harper and Erick Rowan to send Seth Rollins through an announce table, before hitting Roman Reigns with Sister Abigail to cement their dominance on The Hounds of Justice. It may not be the obvious example of perfect tag team wrestling, but it’s certainly an example of the most entertaining variation of the division.
