NXT spent months building up Kassius Ohno. It was obvious they were doing this to feed him to Matt Riddle. What wasn't obvious was that Matt Riddle was going to obliterate him in six seconds and weasel his way onto the TakeOver: War Games card to do so.

It's inevitable that Matt Riddle is going to become NXT Champion. It's only a matter of time and who he dethrones. While late 2019 is probably the most accurate potential date, it's even possible that Matt Riddle will be the one to dethrone Tommaso Ciampa, given the mess Johnny Gargano is currently in.

In the meantime, we'll get to enjoyably watch Riddle show us more and more of what he can do on NXT as the year closes.
