The road to NXT TakeOver: War Games has officially begun and this week on NXT there were a number of hints when it comes to some of the matches that the developmental brand could be looking to put on pay-per-view.
The Undisputed Era were back to full strength for the first time in a number of months as Bobby Fish made his way out to the ring alongside his three teammates after being cleared for in-ring action following a lengthy stint on the sidelines.
War Games is NXT's final pay-per-view of the year and it appears that the developmental brand is looking to go out with a huge bang.
#5 EC3 vs Bobby Fish is a future feud
Trending
The Undisputed Era kicked off this week's episode of NXT to brag about the fact that they were now at one hundred percent, obviously, the top one percent interrupted the group to state that Cole didn't deserve a rematch for the North American Championship since he did lose the triple threat match a few weeks ago.
Cole requested that he faces EC3 so that he can send a message to the locker room, and shockingly it was EC3 who picked up the victory over the leader of The Undisputed Era. After the match is where the real action happened though as Fish, Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong beat down EC3 before Fish went too far and attacked the leg of EC3 with a chair.
Fish was recently sidelined with a knee injury and it appears that he was trying to do the same thing to EC3 which will definitely lead to a showdown between the two men in the coming weeks.
#4 Mia Yim makes her NXT debut
Mia Yim has already made an impact outside of WWE and finally, she made her way into developmental this week when she debuted on NXT against Aliyah. Yim is a ten-year veteran and showed just how well she knew the business when she stepped in the ring with the youngster and was able to pick up the win.
The NXT Women's Division is a crowded place right now following the second Mae Young Classic and Mia Yim is one of the stars who has been able to make the switch over to NXT following the tournament. If this debut match is anything to go by, Yim has got a bright future in NXT.
It is also worth noting that Aliyah showed some innovative technique in the ring this week on NXT and proved that she has definitely been putting in the hours and shouldn't be overlooked in the NXT Women's Division.
#3 Bianca Belair wants her Women's Championship shot
Bianca Belair is still undefeated in NXT and has overcome every obstacle that has been thrown at her in NXT over the past few months. Recently Belair has opened up a feud with Nikki Cross, but neither woman has been able to claim the upper hand since both of their matches have been stalemates.
Whilst Cross has moved on to a storyline with Aleister Black, Belair was spotted this week on NXT backstage asking William Regal for her title shot. It is something that the NXT Universe has been asking about for a while since Belair has been one of the most dominant performers in NXT for a while and it appears that if Kairi Sane is able to overcome Shayna Baszler at Evolution this weekend then her challenger for War Games could well be The EST of NXT.
#2 What does Nikki Cross know?
It has been made obvious over the past few weeks that Nikki Cross knows something about Aleister Black's attack and last week when he interrupted her match with Bianca Belair she told The Dutch Destroyer exactly who it was that attacked him.
Despite this, Nikki still made her way out following Kassius Ohno's match this week on NXT and stated that she knew something and seemed to aim this revelation at The Knockout Artist. Considering she has already told Black who attacked him, could Cross be alluding to something else?
Does the Psychotic Scot know something about Ohno that she is keeping to herself? Ohno has had a different attitude as of late, but it will be interesting to see what it is that Cross actually knows and whose secret she will be revealing next.
#1 Was It really Johnny Gargano?
This week on NXT, Aleister Black went looking for his attacker after Nikki Cross gave him a name last week, but it appears that his attacker found him. Gargano delivered a stunning superkick from behind as Black shouted at Regal "Where is he?" over and over.
Gargano then responded "I'm right here" before NXT cut and the WWE Universe was then left to wonder whether or not it was Johnny Gargano who attacked Black all those weeks ago. Gargano didn't specifically state that it was him that attacked Black, but he did state that he was the one that Black was looking for.
Could WWE be playing the long ball with this feud? Or was it really Johnny Gargano who took Aleister Black out of the equation in the build-up to NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn back in August?
