NXT TakeOver: Portland - 5 Potential endings to Adam Cole vs. Tommaso Ciampa for the NXT Championship

#2 The Undisputed Era betrays Cole

Is a betrayal on the cards?

The Undisputed Era has been together for a long time now. While Adam Cole, Boby Fish, and Kyle O’Reilly joined forces in August 2017, it wasn’t until April 2018 when Roderick Strong betrayed Pete Dunne to join the trio.

Since then, the four men have achieved a lot in their career, and have three NXT Tag Team Championship reigns, 2 NXT North American Championship reigns, and one NXT Championship reign to their names.

While they were known as NXT’s premiere faction, they lost a high-profile eight-man tag team match at Worlds Collide to NXT UK’s Imperium. Weeks before that, the gold standard faction’s Strong lost his North American Championship to break the prophecy.

Keeping all that in mind, it is safe to say that the four men have achieved everything one possibly can together, and it’s time for them to split and give fans something different to cheer about.

If Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly lose the Tag Team Championships to The Broserwights earlier in the night, then we could see them or Roderick Strong turn bitter and cost Cole the title, going as far as to attack him later in the night.

Their actions could pull Cole away from the NXT Championship scene, and a breakup of Undisputed Era could free The Panama City Playboy to move to the main roster sooner than later.
