7 Booking Directions For NXT After TakeOver: Brooklyn III

It seems a pretty safe bet - given that Saturday's show ended with Adam Cole, NXT belt in hand, standing over Drew McIntyre's unconscious body - that the main title feud heading into Houston will pit the company's latest indie recruit up against 'The Chosen One'.

McIntyre proved in Brooklyn, to anyone who hasn't followed his progress since his last stint with WWE, that he is now a capable main event player, whilst Cole - who has a wealth of big match experience in Ring of Honor - is clearly being pushed as a big-time acquisition.

So expect this one to have legs. In fact, you could easily see them feuding well into 2018, with a couple of title switches here and there - particularly if Cole's ROH running mates are backing his corner.
