#5 Protected The Velveteen Dream
After Ciampa defeated Angel Garza, The Undisputed Era came out to circle the ring like sharks while the former NXT Champion stood in the middle of the ring.
UE’s Kyle O'Reilly gave a USB to commentator Mauro Ranallo to have it looked over by the production truck. The video that was shown on the big screen showed Undisputed Era laying out The Velveteen Dream backstage while Adam Cole made a clear statement that whoever tries to get in the group’s path will meet a similar fate.
Later on, William Regal revealed that Velveteen Dream would need some time to recover from the brutal attack, and therefore won’t be able to compete in his North American Championship match against Strong next week.
The move allows NXT to protect Dream while giving Strong a longer run. It also allows the company to build two more Superstars in the process.
The Dream is a star player who should not lose in his rematch for the title. Delaying his match or even canceling it completely could prove to be fruitful in the long run. We could see Dream return later on to prove to be a bigger threat to Strong, or even go after Cole’s Championship instead.
