3) Adam Cole vs Tommaso Ciampa For The NXT Championship
If I have to pick a match that involves two current stars from NXT, there isn’t a better one that I can think of than Adam Cole vs Tommaso Ciampa.
Ciampa was forced to vacate the NXT Championship due to a neck injury several months ago. Since then, Cole and Johnny Gargano have swapped the belt back-and-forth.
The perfect return storyline for Ciampa is for him to try and win back his NXT Championship. Cole is now finished with Gargano and needs a new feud. A Cole and Ciampa feud would be dope.
This obviously would require for Ciampa to be fully healed from his injury. Fingers crossed that he is able to come back in time because this could be fun.
2) Velveteen Dream vs Roderick Strong For The NXT North American Championship
There is one major reason why I have ranked a potential match between Roderick Strong and Velveteen Dream so high. That is because of the potential moment that could close the first NXT episode on the USA Network.
That moment would be Strong winning the NXT North American Championship. As a result, all four members of the Undisputed Era would be holding onto Championships to close the show.
I have a feeling that this moment is either going to happen on this episode or at Takeover: WarGames. Either place works for me.
This could be a great match and way for them to close their first live episode, so I wanted to include it.
