SAnitY made the Authors of Pain look vulnerable, maybe for the very first time
NXT opened in a very strange manner today, with Nikki Cross in the middle of the ring, demanding that the Authors of Pain come out and face her stable mates, Alexander Wolfe and Killian Dain. As they made their way to the ring, they were blindsided by the returning leader of SAnitY — Eric Young. We were wondering how a heel vs. heel program would shape up and from the looks of it, it certainly looks like the program is off to a rather blazing start.

The Authors of Pain have never looked as vulnerable as they do, at this time. SAnitY has the numbers, and the mind games they play have truly tormented the Authors to no end. While they have been unstoppable ever since they came to the main roster, it seems like their days may well and truly be numbered.

It may be time for SAnitY to get their first taste of gold at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn III next weekend. Or will NXT keep the belts on The Authors of Pain for some time more?
