Paul Ellering led his monstrous Authors of Pain into action once again this week, and the result was no different than any of the duo’s other matches. Akam & Rezar unleashed pure devastation on their opponents before putting them out of their misery.
After the bell, Ellering grabbed the microphone and declared that the first chapter of The Authors’ chaotic story began with their arrival. The next, he said, would result in a “plethora of pain,” ominously adding that that was all the NXT Universe needed to know.
