11 Ups & 1 Down From Last Night's WWE NXT (Oct 30)

1. WAR (2.0)

Tommaso Ciampa

After absorbing defeat, Matt Riddle and Keith Lee were subjected to a vicious attack from all four members of The Undisputed Era before Tommaso Ciampa ran, crutch-and-all, into battle.

Hunting down Adam Cole as well as the rest of his crew, Ciampa dominated until the crew were forced to scarper, leaving him as close to his lost "Goldie" as he has been since his NXT return.

It was here he revealed his short-term intentions instead. Taking the microphone, he said "Goldie, you're going to have to wait. Daddy's going to war."

Though William Regal wasn't on hand to confirm this time, the statement all but confirmed the placement of a second WarGames match on the titular TakeOver next month.

Full Sail, for the umpteenth time that evening, erupted. What a show they'd been served.
