My immediate reaction: This was a guarantee. They set up the whole prophecy of The Undisputed ERA holding all the belts (minus, of course, the women's title) and once Adam Cole captured that NXT Championship, it became a must that Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish would win the tag titles and Strong would win the North American title. The fact that they waited until the USA debut is so WWE, in that they didn't pull the trigger at TakeOver specifically to have a title change on the premiere so that it would seem like the show was off to a great start—pretty much exactly what I would have done if I were in their shoes (minus how I probably wouldn't have had those matches necessarily take place at TakeOver and done repeat things here, like Street Profits fighting Fish and O'Reilly so many times in a row).
