Default NXT Takeover Brooklyn [LIVE SATURDAY, Owens/Balor, Bayley/Banks, Breeze/Liger]

The show starts at 8:30PM EST here.

There's going to be an ep of NXT recorded as well but the main show will start at that time.

The card will be
Debut Match
Apollo Crews (Uhaa Nation, his TV Debut) vs Tye Dillinger

Tag Team Championship
Blake and Murphy (C) (W/ Alexa Bliss) vs The Vaudevillains (They're supposedly bringing a valet to conteract Bliss here, could be Blue Pants or either Jessie McKay or KC Cassidy, who have been renamed.)

Singles Match
Samoa Joe vs Baron Corbin

Singles Match
Tyler Breeze vs Jushin "Thunder" Liger

Double Main Event (US Ad during Raw billed it as such)
NXT Women's Championship
Sasha Banks (C) vs Bayley

Ladder Match for the NXT Championship
Finn Balor (C) vs Kevin Owens

The Matchcard Graphics for the show are top notch, reminds me of the ones from the early 2000s.

I'm so excited for this! Hope I can find a stream.

Crews debuting, the Brooklyn/NY crowd, double main event... NXT always delivers so I'll be gripped.

One of the best PPVs I've ever seen.

Sasha/Bayley match of the night, just awesome. Trish and Lita who?

Yeah Baley/Sasha was one of the best divas matches I've ever seen, just incredible.

Jushin/Breeze was a bit messy at times but still great.

Balor/Owens was amazing as usual

Since when has Blue Pants actually been such a thing that people chant for her though? I haven't watched NXT for a few weeks so that seems to have come out of nowhere for me

All things considered, I'd give the PPV a 9/10, the Joe/Baron and Apollo matches fell a bit flat for me.

She's had the theme and titanitron for a while, I think the titanitron debuted against Sasha shortly after she won the title.

I thought she was just a jobber though, why have they given her this 'push'? if it can be called that.

She's just so "over" it's insane, she just has the likeability factor.

Her indies gimmick is ace, cosplay with actual costumes. Here's her recent attire as Mankind :P

Spoiler:



Very experienced and competent wrestler too I hope she's put with Vaudevillains full-time.

ALSO, Nia Jax vignette AND Kan[n]a in the audience with Flair and Slaughter who has supposedly signed a contract. I true we're in for a treat, one of the best in the world.

Well I've never seen Mankind look so hot before

I have no idea who Kana is tbh, I don't keep up with Japanese wrestling as much as I should do, but isn't Nia related to The Rock somehow? or is that just a rumour?

Nia is in fact Rock's cousin. I think there was a story where Rock's mom was involved in a head on collision with a drunk driver and she was with her.

Her real name is Lina Fanene. I think she would've debuted sooner but she got hurt in the accident or something

I'm glad she's getting hyped with promos. She has a unique look for WWE/NXT being a large build and from what I've read of people's experiences seeing her at house shows she's a great "monster heel" (I believe her signature move is the Bear Hug?)

She competed in a dark match a few tapings ago against Nhooph and got a "Lina's gonna kill youuuu" chant so this should be fun!

Also she's been used as Eva Marie's "muscle" in recent weeks which may eventually transition onto TV.
