#3 Best/Worst: Adam Cole vs. Kyle O'Reilly continues, while Roderick Strong quits NXT

At NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver, Adam Cole and Kyle O'Reilly put each other through hell during their 40-minute Unsanctioned Match. It was great but bordered on overkill. Hopefully, that isn't the case during their next match as it seems like the feud is continuing.

We saw exclusive backstage and security footage after their match on NXT, with O'Reilly collapsing at the back. Both superstars were taken to the hospital, with them being wheeled side by side. Cole caught wind of this and threw expletives at his heated rival.

While the idea of the feud continuing isn't the best, this footage did well to sell the brutality of O'Reilly and Cole's Unsanctioned Match.

Another interesting development also happened in the aftermath of the Undisputed Era bursting into flames. Roderick Strong handed in his resignation on NXT.

He seemed overly bothered by the entire situation, but could yet play a part in it. Strong quitting NXT could end up being a swerve before he returns and aligns himself with Adam Cole.

There is also a possibility that the former North American Champion might be done with the black-and-gold brand and is main roster-bound.

Either way, Kyle O'Reilly vs. Adam Cole has a new layer of intrigue following NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver. As long as their next match doesn't go past 40 minutes, it will be fine.
