Mox didnt put over anybody, sounds like he just bled like always, and that is all that matters to him.
Jericho is a vampire, even with the loss Jericho got the rub, and that is all that matters to him.
All of this.

Also, short aside about the Punk/Perry stuff - funny how folks' hate boner for CM Punk is preventing them from seeing that Jack wanted to do take an unneccessary risk, was told no, and then be made out to be "the reasonable one" for referring to the dumb shit he wanted to do. Glass sounds like no big deal, but that one Goldberg incident would be a thing people barely remember about late-stage WCW if it weren't for the fact that he non-exaggeratedly almost bled to death from something as simple as punching a car window out. Made for a "moment" on TV, and it didn't look stupid and bad in the "moment", but again, that one thing could have literally killed the man, and he could have achieved the same end doing something else to express anger on TV for those few seconds. And even after, if a guy made a mission statement of a very antagonistic "if you have a problem with me, come see me", and then you proceed to go see him, I'm not understanding how this makes him "a baby". He put that out front and folks are coming to him to test the theory.

An overall problem bigger than those two, however, is that it's going to take one very avoidable injury to derail the gravy train. Surprisingly, it wasn't Matt Hardy's mid-match concussion where they continued, or the sloppy matches with unfortunately broken ladders or tables (and I mean broken tables in the sense that the legs don't work right for placement co-operation). Not even counting the very stupid shit like random plywood boards with barbed wire stapled to it, because at least chairs or tables are a thing that would otherwise exist in the world instead of being under the ring specifically for a contrived spot in one match.

My point is: the bill comes due.

Someone is going to get brain damaged, Droz'd, or unfortunately killed, and then there will be the "why didn't somebody try to stop them from [x fucked up spot]??" The answer will either be CM Punk tried to, but we don't like him, or that one of the other vets around like Jim Ross suggested they do otherwise, but we just don't listen to the old guy because we're young and invincible and more exiting than they ever were.

I don't specifically mean Tyrus and EC3, but kinda... I mean NWA in general. They went from "MUST SEE" to "Huh? They're still around??" in a very short timeframe. And the backlash about Tyrus being champion felt less like heel heat and more like a final straw.
