William Regal Gave Undisputed Era Some Bad News
NXT GM William Regal kicked off this week’s episode of NXT. Regal came down to the ring and said that he is getting closer to finding out who attacked Aleister Black. Undisputed Era rudely interrupted and made their way to the entrance ramp.
Adam Cole complained about Regal not doing his job and pretending to be Sherlock Holmes every week. Cole noted that the attack on Black is Regal’s fault and that is in the past. Roderick Strong complained about War Raiders attacking them every week and demanded that Regal do something about it.
Regal stated that he finds it interesting that Undisputed Era interrupted while he was talking about the investigation. Undisputed Era got in the ring and got in Regal’s face. Cole claimed that Regal was trying to change the subject.
Cole then went on a rant about Ricochet avoiding him and Regal giving Pete Dunne a championship opportunity. Adam then demanded that he get his championship rematch right now. Regal scolded Cole for interfering in their match last week and told Cole that he will not be getting his title rematch.
Regal added that Cole will get an opportunity in two weeks in a Triple Threat match for the NXT North American Championship in two weeks. Regal then announced that Undisputed Era will defend their NXT Tag Team Championships against War Raiders in three weeks. The crowd chanted “thank you Regal!” as the segment concluded.
Well, actually…
