History Wrestling / TheUndisputedEra

However, eventually the EndOfAnEra loomed, as Adam Cole turned heel on his friends with a series of Superkicks that left Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong feeling betrayed and the group in tatters. Bobby Fish was out with a tricep injury, so he missed this, and by the time he got back the stable was defunct. All four competitors continue to wrestle for NXT as singles wrestlers until August 2021, when Fish was released and Cole allowed his contract to run out without signing a new deal and later signed with Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling.

* FunWithAcronyms: '''C'''ole, '''F'''ish, '''O'''[='=]Reilly. CFO, the same acronym as Chief Financial Officer. Add '''S'''trong and you get CFO$, which goes further and references Wrestling/{{WWE}}'s current music composer duo named after the original concept.

* TheGadfly: All of them are instigators, poking (occasionally literally) the teams they're facing or other wrestlers they're targeting, and they're incessant about it.

* HereWeGoAgain: Adam Cole has a habit of turning on Kyle O'Reilly in pursuit of championship gold, destroying their friendship. It happened at Ring of Honor in 2012, PWG in 2013, Ring of Honor in 2016, and NXT in 2021. You'd think he'd be used to it by now.

* TrueCompanions: Both in {{Kayfabe}} and in real life. Cole and O'Reilly used to team in Ring of Honor as Future Shock, with Strong having been there since the formation of the company, and Fish joining them in 2012, forming [=ReDRagon=] with O'Reilly. The various friendships have evolved into a true brotherhood, each of them insistent that they're not just friends, they're brothers.
* WhamEpisode: ''Takeover: New Orleans'' was a double wham episode for the Era. First, Adam Cole wins the ladder match for the new North American championship. Then, he subs in as Kyle O'Reilly's partner in the finals of the Dusty Cup tag team tournament. He and O'Reilly win... because their opponent, Roderick Strong, turns on his partner Pete Dunne and joins the Undisputed Era.

The Undisputed Era is a ProfessionalWrestling PowerStable composed of Wrestling/AdamCole (Austin Jenkins), Wrestling/BobbyFish (Robert Anthony Fish), Wrestling/KyleOReilly (Kyle Greenwood) and Wrestling/RoderickStrong (Christopher Lindsey). They are currently performing in the ''[[Wrestling/{{WWENXT}} NXT]]'' brand of Wrestling/{{WWE}}.

The Undisputed Era is a ProfessionalWrestling PowerStable composed of Wrestling/AdamCole (Austin Jenkins), Bobby Fish (Robert Anthony Fish), Wrestling/KyleOReilly (Kyle Greenwood) and Wrestling/RoderickStrong (Christopher Lindsey). They are currently performing in the ''[[Wrestling/{{WWENXT}} NXT]]'' brand of Wrestling/{{WWE}}.

* ActionDad: Has two daughters.
* AwesomeMcCoolName: If by 'awesome', you mean "tailor-made for a snappy, easily memorable ring name". As you can see above, his actual birth name is 'Robert Anthony Fish.'
* BadassBeard: Bobby certainly has great facial hair.
* BashBrothers: With O'Reilly most of the time, but has also tagged with Strong.
* BigBrotherInstinct: As the eldest member, he's the one most often ready to throw down for messing with his brothers, especially Kyle. Wrestling/EC3 definitely found this out the hard way.
* BrooklynRage: Well, Albany Rage, but he's definitely short-tempered.
* CommutingOnABus: Spent a good chunk of 2018 inactive, owing to a knee injury, but still appeared with the stable in backstage segments.
* ExtremityExtremist: Proficient in Muay Thai and kickboxing (enough to have been a legit competitor in both sports), though he's more of a power wrestler.
* FascinatingEyebrow: The best in wrestling aside from Wrestling/TheRock.
* GlassCannon: Has a tendency to be injury-prone; went down with a serious knee injury in 2018, a non-serious elbow injury in 2019, and a triceps tear in late-2020.
* IKnowMaddenKombat: Like many former football players, Bobby employs the Spear in his arsenal.
* RedBaron: The "Infamous" Bobby Fish.
* SirSwearsALot: Has always had a potty mouth, especially on the indies, but it's become an issue now. According to Adam Cole, Bobby's been told more than once to watch his mouth during NXT matches (which have mics built into the canvas and ring) and it got so bad during War Games 2019 that the production team yelled at him too.
* ThemeNaming: Fishes, [[MeaningfulName of course]].

* BreakingTheFellowship: [[ContinuityNod As he has done before]], Cole can't stand anyone in his faction achieving more fame or respect than he has. Kyle O'Reilly's failed title run against Finn Balor apparently woke Cole up, and just after O'Reilly's attempt to join forces with Balor, Cole turned on O'Reilly, superkicking him. He made it clear that his focus is now only on himself in the following weeks, where he would cruelly taunt Roderick Strong before beating him down, then giving O'Reilly a brainbuster into the steel steps, injuring him.

* BigBrotherInstinct: As the eldest member, he's the one most often ready to throw down for messing with his brothers. Wrestling/EC3 definitely found this out the hard way.

* AirGuitar: One of his most consistent character quirks is him playing air guitar on his title, sometimes even tuning it like a real guitar.
* BashBrothers: With Fish, and occasionally Strong.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He may be the kookiest member of the UE, but he is also a deceptively strong striker and technical wrestler.
* ButtMonkey: Often on the receiving end of hilarious yet painful moments such as hitting himself with a steel chair (it seems to be becoming a RunningGag in [=WarGames=] matches).
* CanadaEh: He hails from Vancouver and occasionally exploits his accent for laughs.
* DistressedDude: The most frequent target for other wrestlers, despite being the tallest member of Undisputed Era.
* ExtremityExtremist: Like his partner Fish, he's a black belt in Brazilian ju-jitsu and does Muay Thai, and has been known for his striking and submission skills.
* LightningBruiser: His signature style - quick but powerful strikes.
* MythologyGag: Kyle has mentioned squat thrusts a number of times, which Wrestling/{{ReDRagon}} fans will know is a crippling addiction of his.
* TheNicknamer: Nigh-incapable of calling his opponents by their actual names, Kyle tends toward goofy nicknames for them. Highlights include "Peter DOOOOONE"/"Peter Pumpkineater" (Pete Dunne), "Dijagorbachev" (Dominik Dijakovic), "Timofee Fatcher" (Timothy Thatcher), "Ol'Grimey" (Cameron Grimes), "One-ey and Two-ey" (Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch), "[=KushiDUH=]" (Kushida), "GUNTHER and the Imperi Oompa Loompas" (Walter and Imperium), "the Young Grizzly Veterinarians" (Grizzled Young Veterans), and "Bron Swanson" (Bronson Reed).
* NowThatsUsingYourTeeth: Stuck in Finn Balor's submission hold, his face was the closest body part to the ropes, so he bit them to force the break. It uh, [[BloodFromTheMouth backfired]], as Balor would gain payback on O'Reilly for his jaw injury.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** Stopped himself from playing AirGuitar at his entrance at NXT [=TakeOver=]: New Orleans, since Bobby Fish was out injured and was replaced by Adam Cole, who was weakened from having wrestled a ladder match for the NXT North American Championship earlier that night, meaning that their title reign was in serious trouble.
** Wasn't in the mood for the Era's usual antics during a promo to announce their choice of competitor to face Pete Dunne for the War Games Advantage. Kyle interrupted Adam to say he "needs" to face Pete Dunne to get some payback for Dunne's surprise chair-shot of the week prior.
* RedBaron: He doesn't use it as frequently in NXT, but he's been called "the Violent Artist" for a while.
* RememberWhenYouBlewUpASun: Did you hear that Kyle O'Reilly broke Wrestling/FinnBalor's jaw in three places? NXT commentary will remind everyone of this fact every time either man is mentioned.
* ShoutOut: Tends to follow [[Wrestling/{{Demolition}} an axe kick with a forearm smash]].
* TookALevelInBadass: With his unexpected #1 contender gauntlet match win and subsequent Takeover 31 match against Wrestling/FinnBalor. Kyle put on back to back clinics in submission and chain wrestling, even reverting back to his New Japan strong style (and broke Balor's jaw in three places!).
* WorthyOpponent: Is regarded as this by Wrestling/FinnBalor, and seems to regard KUSHIDA as his own.

L-R: Kyle O'Reilly, Wrestling/AdamCole, Bobby Fish; Wrestling/RoderickStrong is on the bottom.]]

The Undisputed Era is a ProfessionalWrestling PowerStable composed of Wrestling/AdamCole (Austin Jenkins), Bobby Fish (Robert Anthony Fish), Kyle O'Reilly (Kyle Greenwood) and Wrestling/RoderickStrong (Christopher Lindsey). They are currently performing in the ''[[Wrestling/{{WWENXT}} NXT]]'' brand of Wrestling/{{WWE}}.

* SignatureScene: The War Games match. They have participated in the titular match for the men every year since the gimmick was brought back to NXT.

* TakeOverTheWorld: Their goal is to usher in a new era in NXT, heralded by them. [[spoiler:They have fulfilled the prophecy with all four of them holding NXT titles.]]

* AbortedArc: During their debut at ''NXT [=TakeOver=]: Brooklyn III'', the team attacked newly crowned NXT Champion Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre, but the latter doesn't retaliate in any way at all aside from briefly aiding Wrestling/{{Sanity}} fight off ERA during the build to [=WarGames=]. The only real followup was a house show NXT title defense against Cole, which NXT aired as a bonus during the final episode of 2017. Though Cole would go on to become the first ever NXT North American Champion, he wouldn't return to the proper NXT Championship scene until April 2019.

** They continue to feud with the War Raiders early in 2019, which ended with the Modern Day Vikings snatching the TagTeam titles from Strong and O'Reilly. After the Raiders left NXT, they then feuded with the Street Profits (Fish and O'Reilly), Velveteen Dream (Strong), #DIY, Wrestling/FergalDevitt, Wrestling/KeithLee, Wrestling/MattRiddle (Cole) and Dominik Dijakovic. While they never fought them in a tag team match, the Era also feuded with the OC prior to ''Survivor Series'' which is rather ironic considering Adam Cole was also a member of the Wrestling/BulletClub.
** In 2020, they have feuded against Pat [=McAfee=]'s faction. It also cemented the group's collective HeelFaceTurn.

** Also, in ''NXT [=TakeOver=]: New Orleans'', not only Wrestling/AdamCole became the inaugural NXT North American Champion after winning a grueling ladder match, but also replaced an injured Fish to team with O'Reilly and defend their Tag Team titles with the aid of Roderick Strong's betrayal of challenging partner [[Wrestling/BritishStrongStyle Pete Dunne]]. The latter also allowed them to both win the ''Dusty Rhodes Tag-Team Classic'' despite not being formal participants in it and turn their tag team title reign from a standard reign of Fish and O'Reilly into a Freebird reign involving all four members.

* ContinuityNod: The faction as a whole marks the reunion of various team combinations made by all four men during their time in the independent scene. These include Wrestling/{{reDRagon}} (Fish and O'Reilly), Future Shock (Cole and O'Reilly) and Mount Rushmore (Cole and Strong).

* DumbJock: Not entirely stupid (Fish and Cole, in particular, are capable of cunning plans) but their humor very much runs on this.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: ''Takeover Brooklyn III''. First, Fish and O'Reilly beat down Sanity *and* AOP, holding up the tag team titles. Then, at the end of the show, when Wrestling/DrewMcIntyre has just won the NXT championship, they show up again . . . to distract Drew from Cole's run-in and beating. This established their gang warfare tactics, strong personal connection, and quest for "all the gold".

* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: After they convinced Taynara Conti to attack Nikki Cross, they abandon her and back out of whatever deal they struck with her, having succeeded in their plans to further screw with Nikki's stable Wrestling/{{Sanity}}.

* TheNicknamer: Nigh-incapable of calling his opponents by their actual names, Kyle tends toward goofy nicknames for them. Highlights include "Peter DOOOOONE"/"Peter Pumpkineater" (Pete Dunne), "Dijagorbachev" (Dominik Dijakovic), "Timofee Fatcher" (Timothy Thatcher), "Ol'Grimey" (Cameron Grimes), "One-ey and Two-ey" (Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch), "KushiDUH" (Kushida), "GUNTHER and the Imperi Oompa Loompas" (Walter and Imperium), "the Young Grizzly Veterinarians" (Grizzled Young Veterans), and "Bron Swanson" (Bronson Reed).

* BigBrotherInstinct: As the eldest member, he's the one most often ready to throw down for messing with his brothers. EC3 definitely found this out the hard way.

* HereWeGoAgain: Adam Cole turns on Kyle O'Reilly in pursuit of championship gold, destroying their friendship. Is this Ring of Honor 2012, PWG 2013, Ring of Honor 2016, or NXT 2021?

* DistressedDude: The most frequent target for other wrestlers, as the smallest member of Undisputed Era.
