Getting to the fifth member of the Elite

By Scott Keith on 29 May 2023

Definitely looks like we’ll get to Blood and Guts with a 5 from BCC vs 5 from the Elite, but what’s the best way to get there?

Kota Ibushi makes sense but it probably is worth first doing some teases and set up other matches for the future. Maybe they ask Adam Cole first but he swerves them and reforms the Undisputed Era as opponents for later. Tease the Villain’s music but probably don’t bring him out. Ask the Bullet Club to help and have that fail. Then bring in Ibushi. Feels like they could milk this for a lot longer if they wanted.

I would just go a direct route. Do something with Omega at Forbidden Door where Takeshita screws him over and Ibushi makes the save. No point in getting overly fancy with it. Anyone who knows and is already invested in the Golden Lovers won’t need the build anyway.
