To be fair that could be exactly the problem. He might've taken it like the pinfall was the problem but it's like no you're sending them to lose in their first match just to make your NXT B-team look good
Agreed. When those matches were announced, I was shocked that LAX was even gonna be in the same ring as Street Profits, even if neither team was going to take a pin. This situation probably could have been avoided if communication was better and Gabe booked LAX against non NXT teams like the Workhorsemen or the Skulk. But it is much cooler and funnier for this thing to blow up and for Gabe to call out Impact publicly. Indie wrestling in 2018 is a blessing.
