* GrowingTheBeard: While the Undisputed ERA already had a great reception and big fan following with the original trio (Adam, Bobby, and Kyle), the group really became a formidable force when Roderick Strong turned heel and joined them. Adam Cole himself said in a [[https://youtu.be/2ok4Ifu0Xzs?t=1540 Notsam Wrestling interview]] (at 25:40) that Roderick was the "perfect fit" for the ERA and that was when the group "really took off".

Furthermore, Strong himself ''literally'' grew a beard during his time with the ERA.

* ToughActToFollow: Roderick Strong and Pete Dunne are primed to win the tag titles in a three-way battle… until Strong pulls off a massive FaceHeelTurn and joins the Undisputed Era. Even Cole and O'Reilly were shocked but delighted by Strong's turn. The problem is that the match, in any other night a show-stealer, took place in what was defined as '''[[SugarWiki/SoCoolItsAwesome THE]]''' best of the [=TakeOvers=], ''NXT [=TakeOver=]: New Orleans'', and they had the bad luck to be the follow-up to the [[Wrestling/TheWrestlingObserverNewsletter five-star rated]] seven-man ladder match for the North American title. For bonus points, one of the participants — no, not just that, ''the winner'' — of that ladder match was… Wrestling/AdamCole. Meaning this was a ToughActToFollow not only in terms of the show's quality, but for Cole and the stable, in-universe as well.

** After Adam turned on the group, BreakingTheFellowship, Roddy tried to reason with him. This involved telling Adam he loved him and that they'd "fix everything", that he wasn't mad at Adam. While on their knees, hugging and crying. This looked to be a very heartwarming reunion... up until Adam low-blowed Roddy and made it clear they were never, ever getting back together.

* HoYay: The bromance is off the charts with these four, but in particular:
** Adam called himself, Kyle, and Bobby "[[OneTrueThreesome the OT3]]" during a Zoom promo.
** Pre-match hugs seem to be mandatory for the Era. Also post-match hugs. They hug during promos too. Seriously, the quantity of hugs is intense.
