According to Meltzer, Riddle was originally going to face Cole at Takeover Toronto. With the taping spoilers, it's obviously Cole/Gargano III now.
This is good in multiple ways. One, yeah Gargano is going main roster...but Ciampa is ahead of schedule and could be back by Rumble time. They can easily trot out DIY or a feud between them on the main roster to keep Johnny from completely dying. And Riddle on the main roster would be such a waste. He could be there with Dream and Cole as being the NXT core for years and never have to be wasted by Vince.
Cesaro was working Main Event... But no, Cesaro is probably gonna be the Ohno of the main roster for these NXT guys. He works Ricochet til he gets his push. He works with Black til he's ready for a US title shot or something. Likewise for Gargano or whoever comes up after Toronto. And in lulls, he can beat the jobber squad like Crews or Mojo or others so he isnt always losing on TV
Sooooooo then we can dream book a Kofi/Big E unifying title match on the premiere of smackdown on fox? Right?
The usual grain of salt with all this...but, yeesh if true There’s been some word making the rounds that Daniel Bryan could move to 205 Live, and that could have to do with his announcement that keeps getting teased.
I'd actually be impressed if there are 4 womens matches on the card. Womens tag, both belts, and this match. And of course, 3 of 4 of those will have almost no build and at first glance, all 4 will pay off no major story.
