Jurassic Express theory from reddit:
Ever since Jurassic Express reunited, I've felt something was off. I feel that last night's match all but confirmed my suspicions: Jurassic Express is not okay.
In the lead up to the freshly reunited JE, we saw vignettes of a what appears to be Jack in a dingy room with Luchasaurus on an operating table. He's shocking him and cutting him just like Dr Frankenstein reviving his monster. Then, we see Jack stand before the Young Bucks in his crucifix pose until Luchasaurus shows up. They hit the Jungle Life theme and everyone is happy, hands in the air like they just don't care.
Last night we saw JE in their first match. It featured Luchasaurus doing all the work, Jack distracting the ref, and Jack bossing Luchasaurus around. They hit their finisher and Jack stares at the camera with the smirk of someone who has a secret. Then they play the music and everyone cheered and threw beach balls.
If you know the story of Dr Frankenstein, it's ultimately about the hubris of a man thinking he can bend the laws of nature and death to his will. Dr. Frankenstein is not a hero, he's a villain who fucks with forces he never should have. If Jack Perry is supposed to be a good person, why show these scenes of him doing some really greasy shit to Luchasaurus? Why is he trying to cheat? Why is he yelling at Luchasaurus? Why is he smirking? Was this just simply a half baked idea like "idk, creepy is cool." I don't think this is the case, all of this is too intentional. It feels off because Jack Perry is still a villain.
Nothing has changed for Jack. He's still carrying knifes like a freak, he's still hitting the crucifix pose, he's still cheating. THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE MUSIC AND THAT'S INTENTIONAL. Jack Perry has found a way through our love of Luchasaurus and Jurassic Express to get cheered again without doing anything to earn it. He hasn't shown any signs of remorse or that he has changed, he's only bent Luchasaurus to his will and hit us with the sweet nostalgia.
I think over the next few months we're going to see more and more that Jack is a villain, that he's controlling Luchasaurus (kind of a theme with him) and he's manipulating us, the audience, to cheer him. The ultimate redemption arc of Luchasaurus is him learning he doesn't need a partner, or a stable, or a dad, or a friend; he's a fucking monster and can stand on his own. To do that, he needs to break free of others control once and for all. He needs to kill his master and Jack needs penence for his evil deeds. Jurassic Express is NOT okay.
