In their post-match comments, Shane Haste and Mikey Nicholls celebrated their win.
Shane Haste: So much rizz on this table.
Mikey Nicholls: These titles right here, these are the most important tag team titles. The history of these is unmatched, and now that me and Shane hold these belts, make no mistake about it, we said it before and I’m gonna say it again right now, we’re the best team in the world. These titles mean that we’re the best team in the world. So anyone that wants to try, anyone, I beg you, come on. We’ve been here before. We’ve been doing this for a while. It took us two decades to get these. You think we’re really gonna let them go that easily?
After sharing a toast with their TMDK stablemates, Shane Haste chimed in, saying that others had doubted them, but he and Mikey Nicholls knocked them all down a peg.
SH: Oh, yes. The sweet taste of victory. Sweet, warm beer. Like you said, people doubted us. Other tag teams out there calling themselves the best tags in the world, but we hold these. We’re the best, and you’re gonna get knocked down a peg by the best two peggers in the business. You saw how we pegged all those guys down a level.
MN: Shane, I love that you’re getting creative, but maybe say it out loud to yourself.
Nicholls then suggested that he could take care of the clever puns.
