Live NXT 'Super Tuesday' September 1st Discussion Thread: Fatal 4-Way 60 Minute Iron Match

Finn Bálor, Tommaso Ciampa, Adam Cole and Johnny Gargano to battle for NXT Championship in Four-Way 60-minute Iron Man Match

The next NXT Champion will be decided in historic fashion.

Finn Bálor, Tommaso Ciampa, Adam Cole and Johnny Gargano will clash next Tuesday night on NXT Super Tuesday in the first-ever, Four-Way 60-minute Iron Man Match.

The Superstar who scores the most pinfalls and submissions in 60 minutes will be crowned the new NXT Champion.

Karrion Kross fought through a separated shoulder to defeat Keith Lee for the NXT Title at NXT TakeOver XXX, but he has been forced to relinquish the championship due to the severity of the injury.

After conferring with Triple H. Shawn Michaels and other members of NXT management, NXT General Manager William Regal announced the decision for this match to take place as a result.

All four Superstars are former NXT Champions and among the best NXT Champions in the history of the black-and-gold brand.

Bálor has enforced his will since returning to NXT last fall, adding to his nearly spotless TakeOver record with victories over Matt Riddle, Damian Priest and Timothy Thatcher. But championship gold has eluded him so far. Can The Prince capture NXT’s top prize for the first time in more than four years?

If anyone understands Kross’ misfortune, it’s Ciampa, who also had to surrender “Goldie” two years ago due to a neck injury amid a dominant reign. Ciampa returned to NXT for the first time in two months Wednesday night, obliterating Jake Atlas in one-on-one action. The Blackheart has proven to be almost unbeatable when he’s on top of his game.

Cole overcame challengers of all shapes and sizes while putting together the longest NXT Champion reign in history, which only ended less than two months ago after a classic battle with Keith Lee. After knocking off the brash Pat McAfee at NXT TakeOver XXX, can the leader of The Undisputed ERA regain his gold?

No man in this bout has changed as much in recent months as Gargano. Subscribing to what he hails as “The Johnny Gargano Way,” Johnny Wrestling has eschewed the adoration of the NXT Universe after insisting that the black-and-gold brand rewards bad behavior. Will Gargano prove himself right and ride his new attitude toward another title reign?

Getting this up early for obvious reasons. Should be a pretty crazy match and I honestly can't call who is going to win this but i'm pulling for Finn in this, kinda feels like it should be his time.​

 

[Chris]

Finn is probably my least favorite to win

Though I wouldn't hate it either, gotta say no one feels obvious either. Cole getting it right back would be pretty meh, love Johnny but he doesn't NEED the belt at all right now, and might just bring him down a bit bc he might not have as much freedom. Ciampa winning it again I think would be cool since he never got it back after vacating it, and depending on Kross's timeline, that's a story that writes itself.

 

[Dale]

I was thinking Ciampa too if they didn't have him do what he did last night.

Although part of me actually thinks that Kross goes straight to the main roster when he's healed.

 

[Jimmy King]

I can see Balor or Ciampa taking it here, the latter more likely tbh. Either way, it should be a banger of a match.

 

[Sabretooth]

Honestly the only one I can’t see winning is Cole since he just lost it. Any of the other three is fair game. I’m really feeling Bálor tbh.

 

[JakeYourBooty]

I think McAfee costs Cole tbh. Doubt Pat did all that training for one 3 week feud. I honestly think Ciampa gets it. He never lost it and like was said before the story writes itself.

I think you may be right but I’m skeptical since he lost to Karrion Kross is like 5 minutes.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

I might not watch a lot of NXT but I think I have to watch this. This is quite the Birthday present.

 

[Cwalker]

Going with Ciampa. Just a good story of him getting back the title he never lost.

Side note, why does NXT have no clear cut babyface at the top of the card?

They lost Keith who was that guy I guess. They also had Ciampa... but yeah. Ciampa turning was a weird call.

It's gonna be Ciampa or Balor. Probably Ciampa but I'd prefer Balor.

No graphic but

Elsewhere, new NXT Tag Team Champions Breezango will join forces with Isaiah “Swerve” Scott to battle Legado del Fantasma in an unpredictable Six-Man Street Fight where anything goes.
