Is Kyle O’Reilly the future of NXT?
O’Reilly’s impressive, wire-to-wire run through last week’s first-ever Gauntlet Eliminator Match certainly begs the question. And the martial artist’s massive opportunity against NXT Champion Finn Bálor this Sunday at NXT TakeOver 31 figures to go a long way toward answering it.
As the only three-time NXT Tag Team Title winner in history, O’Reilly certainly knows a thing or two about championship mettle. Being in the ranks of the longest-reigning NXT Champion ever doesn’t hurt, either.
Adam Cole twisted no words in his assessment of his Undisputed ERA stablemate.
Triple H also weighed in.
O’Reilly will stand face to face with Bálor while WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels plays host tonight on NXT at 8/7 C on USA Network. And don’t forget to tune in for their NXT Title showdown at NXT TakeOver 31 this Sunday at 7 ET/4 PT on the award-winning WWE Network!
