Ranking Every WWE NXT WarGames Match From Worst To Best

8. The Undisputed Era vs Team McAfee (2020)

Though they’ve now been scattered across the wrestling landscape, Undisputed Era were the kings of WarGames, working four on the trot, and you’re pretty much guaranteed a fun match when they’re involved. 2020’s encounter has some fun moments: McAfee bringing out four tables marked with the names of each group member, the English boys bringing cricket bats to the ring, reDRagon running wild.

The men’s 2020 match finishes bottom, however, due to its sheer excess. It’s the match’s - and black and gold NXT’s - most consistent flaw, an unerring desire to throw absolutely everything at the wall. Plenty sticks, but plenty doesn’t, and when that results in a 45-minute match, it’s a bit of an issue.

There’s the Pat McAfee factor, too. The man has been nothing but a boon for WWE, particularly on commentary, but he’s been no slouch in the ring. Building much of the match around him, to the extent that he’s kicking out of Adam Cole’s Panama Sunrise, does seem daft star treatment for a man who’s not going to be a long time worker.

It means McAfee’s teammates - the mercenary gang of Pete Dunne, Danny Burch, and Oney Lorcan - are a little sidelined. The story’s sound, but the lack of focus lets it down.
