NXT: 5 points to note (12 July, 2017)

We at Sportskeeda Wrestling weigh in, on a pretty packed episode

#4 An official number 1 contender’s match, next week

Can Scotland defeat Ireland to face Canada in Brooklyn?

We saw the familiar sight of Bobby Roode in William Regal’s office. As always, Roode wanted to weasel out of an opportunity to face a competitor at Brooklyn, but the NXT General Manager would hear nothing of it and made this match official for next week's NXT Show. The undefeated Killian Dain takes on the undefeated Drew McIntyre next week and the winner goes on to face the glorious Bobby Roode at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn.

This will be another clash of two big men, and we foresee McIntyre emerging victorious in this contest. Not only is this because, as we have outlined in the previous slide, Dain looks like he’ll be involved in a tag team battle at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn on Summerslam weekend this year. Not only is this because McIntyre is a babyface and the current NXT Champion, Bobby Roode is a cocky, arrogant heel.

It is because this will be a big ticket match and Brooklyn is the biggest show of the whole wear, at least for NXT.
