3 possible replacements for Tommaso Ciampa at NXT Takeover: New York

#1 New champion, Bay Bay!

Could Adam Cole step in?

If NXT don't wish to book a crowded NXT title match for Takeover, the best option would be to shift Adam Cole. It seems like the Undisputed Era have been lingering around and teasing fans with the idea of all four members each holding a championship.

Whether or not that was in the plans for NXT - it really should now. They lost the incredible heel presence of Tommaso Ciampa and will have to replace it with something as big, if not bigger. Now is the time for Undisputed Era to hold all the gold.

The Panama City Playboy could simply just step up to Johnny Gargano and challenge him for the vacant belt at Takeover, with Roderick Strong taking Cole's place in the expected multi-man melee for the North American Championship.

Add in Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly taking their place in the NXT Tag Team Championship match, and NXT has the opportunity to further the Undisputed Era's dominance. The call-up can wait, but this opportunity cannot. We would even get a possible 5-star match in the process.
