WWE NXT will return to USA Network next week, and the black-and-gold brand is coming home in style. Among other noteworthy segments, the most buzzworthy one is certainly the looming face-to-face confrontation between Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly.
The two men are engaged in a bitter feud on-screen, and O’Reilly brutally attacked Cole last week. Given the fact that they’ve split their two singles matches against this year, it’s fair to predict that a third one could be in the cards.
Plus, the uncertainty surrounding Cole’s future makes this portion of the show must-see TV. Earlier this week, multiple outlets reported that Cole’s WWE contract will expire after SummerSlam. Since then, fans have been speculating about Cole’s next move, and this segment with O’Reilly could be telling in that regard.
