10 Predictions For NXT After TakeOver: San Antonio

Losing the NXT Championship in San Antonio may mean that NXT have finally conceded that Nakamura is too big a star for Full Sail. If he is indeed on his out the door then he may be obliged to put over some future players just as previous NXT Champions have done. While Eric Young, Roderick Strong, or Tommy End are all interesting match-ups, the King of Strong Style could cross paths with Sanity's monster Killian Dain.

Though he is currently just the imposing muscle of Young's faction, seeds were planted during Damo's NXT debut that indicate he may be in for big things in the future. Just as Braun Strowman broke out from the Wyatt Family, NXT look to have a great deal of faith in the big man, and a showdown with the former NXT Champion might be the best way to put him over as a threat.

Nakamura does not necessarily have to lose to Dain, but a marquee showdown over the next few weeks would be a great sendoff for the Japanese star and a huge boost for the recent debutant.
