Things get heated when Strong meets Riddle at NXT XXV.

As is usually the case, there is always one match on the card that doesn't involve a title. There are only four titles in NXT, hence only four title matches. This time, the honor goes to Matt Riddle and Roderick Strong.

The Undisputed Era has been doing its usual business of interfering in any match that they please. Lately, that has usually involved bouts featuring Matt Riddle and Johnny Gargano. Riddle and Gargano have had to join forces in order to stave off the numbers' game, but it's been too much at times.

Both men can throw some extremely stiff strikes and both men can put the technical in 'technical prowess.' Riddle is still looking for a title shot and Strong is a secondary player (albeit a great one) in TUE.

Strong basically attacked Riddle a few weeks ago in order to get back in the good graces of Adam Cole. The Undisputed Era always needs multiple opponents due to the group having four members and this is one of the side feuds that has emerged since WrestleMania weekend. Despite not having a title to battle over, this could be the match of the night. Or it could tie with another match on the card for that honor.
