The action was hot from the get-go as both teams have squared off a number of times so they were familiar with one another’s material and although Kyle O’Reilly and Roderick Strong always show up big at the TakeOver shows, War Raiders were just a step above them and that allowed for the modern-day Vikings to capture their first titles in the WWE.
