Anything can happen on The Road to WrestleMania, and NXT was pulling no punches with a huge night for March 10. The primary focus was a pair of guaranteed must-watch title matches.
Finn Balor laid out a challenge to finally get Adam Cole to come out of hiding. He put his NXT Championship on the line against the former member of The Undisputed Era, letting Cole attempt to reclaim his lost gold.
Toni Storm called out Io Shirai, telling the world that The Genius of the Sky was afraid of her. The NXT women s champion answered by setting up a title match between them. These longtime rivals would have a chance to steal the show like they once did in the Mae Young Classic final.
