Bryan Danielson emerged to interrupt Kingston's celebration with the new signing following the announcement, layering narrative crumbs for his current feud with the Continental Crown Champion and a potential invite to Keith to join the Blackpool Combat Club.

The BCC looks to be embroiled in a feud with CMLL stars including Hechicero and Volador Jr.. Volador was a part of the CMLL contingent that attacked Jon Moxley last week, and Hechicero faced Bryan Danielson tonight on "Collision."
