As Balor was celebrating his win, Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch stormed the ring and attacked him along with Dunne. The Undisputed Era ran out and cleared the ring to make the save and help Balor.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the recent history between them, O&#8217;Reilly checked on Balor and helped lift him to his feet. O&#8217;Reilly told Balor that he could trust him before turning and posing with Cole and Roderick Strong. It appeared as if Balor was going to join them in hitting the Undisputed Era pose, but as he started, Cole clocked him with a superkick.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Undis&#8212;NOPE!<\/p>\n<p>What was that all about about, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AdamColePro?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@AdamColePro<\/a>?!? <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTTakeOver?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NXTTakeOver<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NXTChampionship?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NXTChampionship<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FinnBalor?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@FinnBalor<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/roderickstrong?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@roderickstrong<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KORcombat?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@KORcombat<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/CMFtiCnHYJ\">pic.twitter.com\/CMFtiCnHYJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE (@WWE) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\/status\/1361141956252958720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 15, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The move enraged O&#8217;Reilly who immediately got in Cole&#8217;s face to voice his displeasure.

Answers regarding the situation will presumably come on this week&#8217;s episode of NXT.<\/p>\n<p><em>Heydorn&#8217;s Analysis: This angle was the icing on the cake of a very strong NXT TakeOver. The sky is the limit with this. On one side of things, you have Cole vs. O&#8217;Reilly matches to get to. That in itself is something to get excited about given the chemistry those guys have. They have a history of excellent matches together on the independent scene as well. The other side is Balor vs. Cole. Yes, we&#8217;ve seen that before, but not with their characters defined in this way. Cole as a heel facing a fuming babyface Balor is appointment viewing. The long game here is O&#8217;Reilly winning the NXT Championship. As far as the Wednesday night battle between NXT and AEW, well, this was always a major card that NXT had waiting and now its on the table. We&#8217;ll soon see just how impactful it is.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2021\/02\/14\/nxt-takeover-vengeance-day-report-2-14-wellss-live-results-and-match-analysis-for-balor-vs-dunne-shirai-vs-storm-vs-martinez-kushida-vs-gargano-men-and-womens-dusty-classic-finals\/\">NXT TAKEOVER: VENGEANCE DAY REPORT 2\/14: Wells\u2019s live results and match analysis for Balor vs. Dunne, Shirai vs. Storm vs. Martinez, Kushida vs. Gargano, men and women\u2019s Dusty Classic finals<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3881224752\"><div id=\"pwtor-3027287327\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The Undisputed Era in its original form is a thing of the past thanks to Adam Cole.
