Arguably the most stacked Takeover ever happens Sunday, so reminder to you all.
NXT Title
Adam Cole vs Tomasso Ciampa
NXT Women's Title
Rhea Ripley vs Bianca Belair
NXT North American Title
Keith Lee vs Donovan Dijakovic
NXT Tag Team Titles
Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish vs Matthew Riddle & Pete Dunne
Street Fight
Dakota Kai vs Tegan Nox
Johnny Gargano vs Finn Balor
Picks...
Cole
Rhea
Lee
Broserweights
Dakota
Balor
I think Ciampa wins his title back at the Mania Takeover, not this one. Also Rhea seems like an obvious pick (hope they don't throw a curve at us), Keith Lee just won the title, Broserweights as tag champs could be fun, Dakota lost to Tegan on TV once so I think she needs a win and finally I think Balor needs to stay strong.
Maybe we get a 4 way at Mania Takeover with Ciampa vs Cole vs Balor vs Gargano?

There's a chance I sadly might have to miss this tonight. But I'll get caught up late night and/or tomorrow at some point.
Hoping for a show of the year caliber Takeover.

I'll be here. Hopefully the 500 doesn't bleed over too much.

Djakovic just doesn't impress me. Still very green.

Ok hulking up after a powerbomb is just dumb unless you are Hulk Hogan or Undertaker.

Can't tell if that finish was botched or just a poorly planned finish sequence.

Missed most of that match. Chris Dijak would be a much cooler name.

Maybe had we not had like a 5 match series (at least it felt like that) a few months back with the two, I'd have been more blown away by Dijak vs Lee, but they're always just fun hoss high spot matches. Thought it was really good, but it just blends in with their other matches unfortunately. Still really good though.
Really dug Dakota vs Tegan. Have zero clue why they felt the need to change Reina Gonzales' name to Raquel, but I'm fine with Dakota having a heater. She needed to win the match. The feud can continue and Candice can help her in this feud.
I thought Reina killed Tegan with that chokeslam off the top and the table didn't break. Also loved Beth calling the Molly Go Round.

Spray tan ref is dangerously close to looking like its blackface. Not good.

Gargano and Balor was a nice match. Balor got the needed win.
