On the stage, Regal has a table that is surrounded by security. Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly are seated at opposite ends. Regal says he has a contract for a match. Once they both sign they will have to agree that NXT isn’t liable for anything that happens in the match. This will be an unsanctioned match. Cole says he realized that the Undisputed Era was holding him back. It was O’Reilly who showed him that. O’Reilly failed at winning the title. O’Reilly had the nerve to try to have Bálor join them.
Cole says he is the best and he takes a backseat to anyone. Cole says he WAS the Undisputed Era. Without him it’s nothing. O’Reilly is nothing. Cole signs the contract. Before O’Reilly signs, he said he grew up and decided to take accountability for his actions. Cole never did that. That’s the problem. Cole is just the same asshole who walked into NXT years ago. O’Reilly says he’s going to sleep like a baby after he destroys Cole. Cole tells O’Reilly to sign the contract. Cole says it’s O’Reilly’s death warrant. O’Reilly chucks the pen at Cole. Security holds both men back.
You don't interfere in @KUSHIDA_0904's match and get away with it. #WWENXT @joaquinwilde_ @RaulMendozaWWE pic.twitter.com/VZjz63wgP7
