Jericho, whom Adam Cole is feuding with and had assaulted him a week earlier, has Cole banned from the building; instead, in the last minute of the match, Strong took the fight outside of the arena where Cole is waiting for Chris.

** In Wrestling/TheUndisputedEra, he seems more prone to humiliation than the others. Not only does being the guy UE sends out when Adam Cole doesn't want to do a singles match (Fish and O'Reilly are skilled in their own right but typically work together), resulting in something of a VeryPunchableMan status for the group, but it took him by far the longest out of the stable to win a title in his own right. And when they held all the titles in NXT, he is the first to lose his.
