#5 Johnny Gargano vs. Adam Cole - NXT Championship
One of the most awaited matches of the event will be between Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole for the vacant NXT Championship. The match will be a two out of three falls count match and will surely be a treat to watch. The match was originally supposed to be held between Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa, but an injury to Ciampa which required surgery has led to him vacating the title.
Gargano and Cole are arguably the most well-rounded performers in NXT at the moment. While a regular match between the two men would have been extremely good, a two out of three falls match will be absolutely thrilling! Both men have never held the title before, but have competed for it many times. This is the time that one of these two men can win their first NXT Championship and start a new reign.
While Gargano would have been the favorite if Ciampa was defending the title, the odds are in Cole’s favor thanks to his band The Undisputed Era. Gargano recently held the NXT North American Championship, and we could see Adam Cole getting a run with the NXT Championship after an eventful reign as the North American Champion in 2018.
Prediction: Adam Cole will win the NXT Championship
