The Messiah of the Backbreaker had a strong showing at NXT Takeover: XXV. Although he didn't win his match against Matt Riddle, he was able to take the Original Bro to the limit and put on a beating on the former UFC competitor, the likes of which we had never seen before.

Despite his spirited performance last night, the past few months haven't been great for Strong. He has had his issues with the leader of The Undisputed Era, Adam Cole, who has taken Strong to task on numerous occasions. Although things have calmed down between the duo with Cole saying that The Undisputed Era is stronger than ever, we can't help but see a bit of jealousy creeping in judging by Strong's facial expression while Cole was delivering his victory speech.

Now, like most fans, we would like The Undisputed Era to stay afloat for as long as possible but let's be honest - all good things come to an end, whether we like it or not. If the TUE does break up, we would like to see Cole and Strong lock horns for the NXT Championship.

Given their history between the duo and story that could be told, this one has the potential to be one of the greatest feuds in NXT history.
