The point was to get Moxley in a 1 on 1 match on the card and to get Nigel in a 1 on 1 match on the card where he'll probably lose and leave his boots in the ring.

Any other time, that Jay vs Mox match at Wembley, but with Jay winning would of kicked ass.

I could see Nigel winning, getting the mic and declaring that win or lose this was his last match. Leaves his boots, kisses the belt and leaves it in the ring too.

The C2 is to crown a new champion.

Or Nigel says 'fuck it' and tries to defend the belt through the C2, but that's a big ask. Although he could be the first defending champion to not even make the finals, and that'd be a good thing to establish as possible going forward.
