– Speaking of tonight’s Cole vs. McAfee match, NXT General Manager William Regal greeted Cole and his entourage on the Pre-Show and told them that the bout will be between the two competitors only. It looks like The Undisputed Era and McAfee’s crew will be banned from ringside.
No back up, no problem?
