6 Predictions For NXT TakeOver: Orlando
5. SAnitY Fall To The Good Guys
Though they haven’t had the level of fan interest WWE would have wanted, SAnitY have been nothing short of dominant lately.
Eric Young, Killian Dain, Alexander Wolfe, and the feral Nikki Cross have looked untouchable together, but they’ve yet to face significant opposition. No Way Jose, Roderick Strong, Tye Dillinger, and Ruby Riot have since banded together to combat their threat, and after weeks of chaos, they’ll compete in an 8-person tag match at TakeOver.
This one’s tough to predict. There’s a strong chance WWE will opt to keep SAnitY’s momentum going, as they’re reportedly set to play a major role in NXT after the weekend. That being said, a loss here wouldn’t be a complete disaster, and they’d be able to immediately recover any lost heat by picking on a separate babyface or two on next week’s NXT TV.
The babyfaces have spent most of this storyline on the back foot, and after months of abuse at Young’s hands, it’s time for Dillinger to gain a measure of revenge. The good guys should leave Orlando with a victory before splitting up and embarking on individual singles careers, with Strong, Jose, and Ruby setting their sights on championships, and Dillinger potentially heading to the main roster.
