The wedding ceremony took place before the start of the event, and was commented on by the writer Al Ewing with the following statements:
“I love Hulking and Wiccans a lot, both individually and in twos. So it’s a great feeling to be able to give readers this kind of ‘shock’ which hopefully will lift the spirits of the fans a little bit, rather than knock them down.”
