NXT TakeOver In Your House: 10 Things That Must Happen

1. Johnny Gargano Shocks Keith Lee

Then, Gargano should take the belt.

'Bugger me', you might be saying, 'I don't think that's a good idea'. Fair enough, but Lee shouldn't be North American Champ if he's eventually going to challenge Adam Cole for the NXT Title proper. That's the plan in this fantasy booking realm, and that's why he has to drop the secondary strap to 'Johnny Wrestling' at In Your House.

This would also turn WWE's usual telegraph booking strategy on its well-worn head. Gargano got the last laugh on the latest NXT by posing with and kissing Lee's title, and most will be expecting big Keith to exact revenge at TakeOver because of that moment. He shouldn't. Nope, nope, nope. Lee should lose and Gargano should earn his second run with the belt.

Heartache will only galvanise fans behind Lee's cause. Social media will blow up at WWE for this decision, and that'll only add fuel to the fire for his NXT Title push after In Your House. Think Daniel Bryan in 2013-2014, only with NXT's familiar storytelling prowess.
