In a fantasy booking scenario, the NXT Champion could team with "The American Nightmare" against McIntyre and a partner from "NXT," possibly Femi's current rival who he beat at Deadline, Ricky Saints, in a tag team match on the first three-hour episode of the blue brand in the new year. "The Ruler" is set to defend his title at New Year's Evil against the winner of the runners-up of the Iron Survivor Challenge, Myles Borne, Dion Lennox, Leon Slater, and Joe Hendry, who are set to clash in a four-way match on Tuesday, but it seems more likely that he would lose the gold in a triple threat involving both Saints and Je'Von Evans at a later date. No matter how you fantasy book it, however, Femi is a megastar destined for the main roster, and Rhodes is once again on a collision course against McIntyre for the pair to face off at yet another premium live event, either the next Saturday Night's Main Event on January 24, or at the Royal Rumble from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia the following week.
