Johnny Gargano vs. Andrade "Cien" Almas: Gargano should win but Almas needs something too. He's lost nearly every Takeover match he's had. Almas wins after interference.
Aleister Black vs. Hideo Itami: This will steal the show. Black beats Itami in a war.
NXT Tag Team Champions Authors of Pain vs. SAnitY: No idea what's the deal with this feud. AOP wins I guess.
NXT Women's Champion Asuka vs. Ember Moon: Asuka loses and sets up the Rematch at Survivor Series Takeover.
NXT Champion Bobby Roode vs. Drew McIntyre: No idea what happens. I don't think Drew wins yet, and Roode can set up nicely for Black in the future.

In the Chicks match, I would love to see one of the main roster girls get involved, Asuka loses the strap and then Asuka starts a main roster feud immediately.

Gargano, Black, Sanity, Asuka, No Contest (or Roode). I've gone back & forth in the main event, but I'd be fine if chaos ensues & we get Adam Cole & Roddy steamrolling guys to end the show. I hope Roddy gets involved somehow. Maybe he accidentally costs McIntyre the match?
Regardless, despite not being heavily devoted to NXT in the last few months, I'm looking forward to this show far more than Summerslam.

Yeah, I rarely watch the weekly show which is my fault. But I'm always super entertained if not blown away. The video packages are outstanding to keep up as well.

Re-watched Sasha/Bayley from the 1st Brooklyn tonight. Holy fuck everything about that match remains spectacular.
Also it's almost heartbreaking to watch, seeing the number they've done on Bayley (and Sasha to a lesser extent) on the main roster. Everything that made her special is out the window. It's sad.

Kurt Angle is at Takeover for mandatory paternity tests.

Hot take. I'm not a fan of Gargano's new theme.

That first match. My goodness. I don't want to seven star it and have it be a letdown. But any wrestling people on this board should watch it.

That was another incredible match. I'm not just saying that because it's NXT.

They shot Black in his entrance perfectly; makes him look like a big thing

"Hey, what if we have JR and Mauro call their first match together during Black v Itami?" Glorious.

I feel Roode/McIntyre will not be the same; more traditional wrestling with at lot less high spots.

This will be the old school main event match. Unfortunately, the crowd may not respond to it. I love the way both guys work btw.
