Adam Cole to defend Championship title against Velveteen Dream at TakeOver: In Your House

A couple of weeks ago, The Velveteen Dream got a shot at the WWE NXT Championship, but he was unable to seize the moment because of champion Adam Cole and The Undisputed ERA. The Velveteen Dream used various tactics to win the match, but The Undisputed ERA helped Adam Cole every single time. After losing the match, Velveteen Dream demanded a rematch, but Adam Cole denied to give him one.
