Ricochet Has Backstage Exchange with Current Champion

WWE has also released the following video, featuring new NXT North American Champion Ricochet commenting on fifteen years of hard work paying off at Takeover. Ricochet also says he proved tonight that Adam Cole was simply hiding behind the North American Title during his reign.

Also during the interview, Undisputed Era interrupts, only for WWE UK Champion Pete Dunne to show up causing the tag team Champions to retreat. When Ricochet thanks Dunne for the assist, Dunne reminds Ricochet he is not his mate:
