That's going to be a hell of a match. I'm expecting Cole to win but if they switch the belt to Balor I won't be mad at all.

I see the gear in HHH's head turning.
The way this is set with heel vs heel and clearly UE out number a single finn balor
Is that UE is gonna turn on Adam Cole and FINN becomes their new leader and wins the title.

I was thinking exactly the same thing. And a face Cole, fired up to pick off UE to hunt down Balor and get back to goldie, yeah I'm down for that.

I'm not really a fan of the idea of going from one heel champion flanked by a stable straight to another one, especially since NXT has been way too heel-dominated for way too much of its existence anyway, but I do think getting the belt off Cole and having him go face would be a great idea for the character at this point since there isn't really any other clear direction for him and he's hot enough right now that you could probably make him huge if he turned now.

A slow-burn Cole face turn with the locker room reluctant to help him would be interesting.

In story, let the fans cheer Cole while it takes a while for the locker room to warm up to him and eventually Cole starts to apologize for his actions

I would keep Cole strictly in tweener territory if what I believe is going to happen happens , but lean him more heel and like said slow burn it...like he clearly would hate UE but he still cheats in matches etc and then TakeOver WM weekend idk how yet ..maybe helping Keith Lee win the NXT title by taking out UE would do it but that is when I would pull the trigger on full blown babyface Cole.

I’m convinced that Takeover Portland is where UE gets crushed and loses all the belts. I’m positive Ciampa is taking the belt off Cole, it makes the most storyline sense.

Yea, the fantasy booking aspect of it all is Finn finally gets a new group by taking someone elses group like his was taken from him The most logical booking is Gargano returns and cost Finn the title

If/when Cole goes to the main roster I think it really needs to be as part of UE. But if the plan is for Cole to remain one of the top dogs in NXT, then absolutely break him off from UE

It is a fun car crash type booking that resets the landscape BUT they are too damn good as a unit to break them up Plus, if Balor is going to get his own group I want to see each member in his own image as opposed to taking from someone else

Balor with TUE is something I definitely don’t wanna see.
I’d rather he was with Styles and Gallows/Anderson.

I can't see them splitting the UE, they are just too popular. I can seek them building another faction behind Finn though. Give UE something to face that united and something else that the rest of the locker something to face.

It's already got a great foundation.

They just announced that this match will open NXT this week (which likely leaves Baszler v Ripley as the main event) and will be aired commercial-free.
