Adam Cole def. Pat McAfee
After two years of insults, Adam Cole finally got his hands on Pat McAfee and made the former NFL’er pay, though McAfee managed to impress the WWE Universe in his initial outing in the squared circle.
Despite Cole agreeing to leave The Undisputed ERA in the locker room, McAfee arrived to TakeOver with former NFL stars AJ Hawk and Darius Butler and his podcast co-host Nick Maraldo in his corner. The former NXT Champion gained the upper hand early on, as he gave McAfee a lesson in what it takes to be a Superstar. However, McAfee was able to use the power that helped him become an All-Pro punter to turn the tables on Cole.
At ringside, McAfee and his crew swarmed around Cole, leading to The Undisputed ERA arriving to even the odds. McAfee took advantage of the melee, climbing to the top rope and taking out Undisputed ERA, his friends and NXT security with a breathtaking dive to the arena floor.
In his first-ever match, McAfee continued to impress as he worked over the former NXT Champion while showing off his incredible athletic skill. Cole thought he had the upper hand again as he shoved McAfee off the top rope, only for the former Indianapolis Colt punter to backflip off and land on his feet, then leap back up to the top rope and plant Cole into the canvas with a superplex.
McAfee had Cole lined up for another punt, but the Undisputed ERA’s leader evaded the kick, instead punting the steel ring steps. That turned out to be the point where things went south for McAfee. Finally, Cole connected with a Panama Sunrise to put an end to this rivalry.
