After their victory, the Viking Raiders stated that they were going to go celebrate with turkey legs when AJ Styles and Omos appeared, with the massive bodyguard eating a turkey leg. AJ Styles would say that he doesn’t believe that they are real Vikings and that they would not recapture the Raw Tag Team Championships.
Enjoy that turkey leg, @TheGiantOmos!#WWERaw pic.twitter.com/SJqdcYvDuF
