Update on Kyle O’Reilly NXT Status – As noted, last week’s NXT show featured an injury angle where Adam Cole attacked NXT Champion Finn Balor and O’Reilly, leaving O’Reilly laying after a Brainbuster on the steel ring steps. O’Reilly was stretchered out of the arena after NXT went off the air, and later said on Twitter that he will be back stronger.
In an update, it was announced on tonight’s NXT show that O’Reilly is not medically cleared to compete and his estimated return time is 4-6 weeks. Vic Joseph noted on commentary that O’Reilly is suffering from a herniated disc. It’s important to note that this is just for the storyline, and O’Reilly was not legitimately injured last week.
O’Reilly & McAfee React To Low Blow On Roderick Strong
As noted, the ongoing saga of The Undisputed Era continued with a show-closing angle on tonight’s show, where Cole hits Roderick Strong with a low blow. Cole took to Twitter after the show and claimed The Undisputed Era for himself.
“I am, and always have been, the Undisputed ERA,” Cole wrote.
O’Reilly also reacted to the attack on Strong with a post-show tweet about Cole.
“What a POS,” he wrote.
Pat McAfee ranted on Cole’s heel turn last week and once again had some words for his rival after tonight’s attack.
“Just a terrible terrible terrible human,” McAfee wrote.
There’s no word yet on what WWE has planned for the big storyline with Balor and The Undisputed Era, or when Cole will get a match against Balor, Strong or O’Reilly, but we will keep you updated.
Below are the full tweets from Cole, O’Reilly and McAfee:
I am, and always have been, the Undisputed ERA.
