4 Possible endings to Matt Riddle vs Adam Cole on this week's NXT 

3: Adam Cole retains

Adam Cole's NXT Championship run has plenty left in the tank

Roderick Strong's recent North American Championship victory means that the Undisputed Era now hold all of the gold on the brand.

This tried and tested trope is always a winner and the WWE will want to position these guys as the face of their brand over the coming months.

As such, taking the belt away from their leader so soon after they have finally captured all of the gold is likely to be a very poor decision from a booking perspective. Cole holding the gold is paramount to the group getting over as the brand's top dogs.

There are many ways Cole could pick up the victory on Wednesday but the WWE need to make sure that they protect Matt Riddle in defeat. Having the Undisputed Era and a series of shenanigans be the thing that costs Riddle the title means that he will be protected and it also leaves things open to the possibility of a rematch.

The NXT Championship has also changed hands a few times already this year and it would probably benefit the company much more to have the belt around the same person's waist for some time as they aim to make a name for themselves.
