We’re coming up on two years since Adam Cole debuted on NXT television, crashing the end of TakeOver: Brooklyn 3 and forming Undisputed ERA with Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish.
Since then, the group has picked up (and teased kicking out) Roderick Strong, held tag gold twice, the North American title once, and Cole is now NXT champ. Most importantly for our current topic, the ERA has been rumored for call-up for at least the past year and a half, when Cole made his main roster debut in the 2018 Royal Rumble match.
I bring all that up because there’s been a bit of a resurgence in factions on the main roster. The ever-reliable New Day are currently all holding belts, and AJ Styles reforming The Club with Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows led to the Phenomenal One reclaiming the United States championship. It was a tweet from Anderson proclaiming his trio as “the only club that matters” which prompted a fan to reply with a GIF of Cole’s squad. AJ quote tweeted that thusly:

It didn’t sit too well with the NXT champ, who sent out the call:

Roddy’s got jokes:
Oh Adam, They don’t want none. https://t.co/acijWgEkSQ

But all we have is... well, let’s just say we’re excited at the prospect of an ERA/Club showdown. Or, really, just a strongly booked Undisputed main roster run, period, no matter who they run into.
They may have some unfinished business at TakeOver: Toronto 2 first, but we can wait.
