Anyone watch this show? No suprise, it was another great Takeover. Every match was at least solid, and Almas vs Gargano is an early MOTY contender that’s goin to have a hard time being topped. Even if you dint end up wtching the whole show, I highly reccomend watching at least this match. In my opinion the best NXT match yet, and the best WWE match since Cena vs Punk.
As for the rest of the show, the opening Tag was great. I hope AoP get called up to the main roster soon. They’ve greatly improved and are gonna have fantastic matches with the current tag teams.
Ohno vs Velveteen Dream continued to prove that Dream is a fucking star. The match was sloppy at some points, but Dreams character work is excellent and he’s the best personality in NXT at the moment.
Moon vs Baszler was probably the worst match of the night, but worst match on a Takeover card is still a good match. I was kind of hoping Baszler would just squash moon, like Brock v Cena at Summerslam, but they did a good job making her look strong while still protecting Ember.
Cole vs Black extreme rules was brutal and fantastic. I didnt think it would be topped but Almas & Gargano found a way.
Another great takeover is in the books. If you’re not watching NXT for whatever reason, I really suggest you do. The weekly show is the best it’s been since the Sami/Neville days and the Takeovers just get better and better. With EC3, Rochochet, Candice & War Marchie joining, its only going to get better from here.
