I was at tonight’s NXT tapings at Full Sail. I’m convinced the episodes taped after the Takeover go-home show aren’t going to air, btw
Airing 8/19 (Takeover Go-Home Show):
– Contract signing for Sasha vs Bayley at Takeover Brooklyn. Crowd gets all over Sasha. Bayley says she’s seen enough contract signings and she’s ready to fight now. Sasha leaves, but Bayley attacks her on the ramp. Refs have to carry Bayley away.
– Tyler Breeze beats a jobber. Tyler comes out with Jushin Liger’s mask, and puts it on the guy after the match. He says it’s nice to meet Liger and he’s not impressed, then lays the guy out with a Beauty Shot.
– Enzo, Cass, and The Hype Bros beat the 4 enhancement talents Baron Corbin beat over the last 4 weeks.
– Blake & Murphy beat Dawkins & Fulton. The Vaudevillians come out to reveal their plans for Takeover, but Alexa Bliss slaps them several times and they do not reveal who will help them in Brooklyn. Weird segment live.
– Samoa Joe beats Steve Cutler with the rear naked choke. Corbin comes out and they brawl, Corbin hits End of Days out of nowhere.
– Kevin Owens comes out with a ladder. When the crowd boos the mention of Brooklyn, Owens blows up and calls the crowd disrespectful, hypocritical, and calls them the “John Cena of wrestling fans” because they boo the fact that NXT is growing. He says he needs the NXT title so he can run it everyone’s faces, and that he will lay out Bálor before he climbs the ladder. The lights go off, and Bálor is perched on the top turnbuckle when his red lights come on. Owens climbs down the ladder and they brawl. Owens bails before Bálor can hit him with the ladder. Bálor poses on the ladder with the NXT Title.
Airing 8/26 or 9/2 (depending on when the taped Brooklyn show airs):
– Sasha Banks (still wearing the NXT Women’s Championship) beats the debuting Gionna Daddio. Gionna was the blonde in the Bull Fit gym sketch this week.
– The Ascension returns to a monster pop and Welcome Back chant, but lose to Rhyno and Baron Corbin. There was some issue outside the ring that resulted in the ref calling for the bell. The fans booed, and Regal came out and restarted the match. Rhyno hit a gore to win.
– Alexa Bliss beats Blue Pants with the Sparkle Splash.
– Apollo Crews debuts and defeats Alexander Wolf with the standing moonsault. Crews is very impressive.
– Eva Marie beats Billie Kay. At one point, Kay pinned Eva and Eva forgot to kick out at two, but the ref stopped counting anyways. The crowd went ballistic and got all over him. Big heat for Eva winning due to this.
– Neville makes a surprise return to team with Solomon Crowe. Crowd pops huge.
– Jason Jordan and Chad Gable beat Neville and Crowe. Great match.
Airing 9/2 or 9/9:
– Carmella beats Peyton Royce
– Tommasso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano beat Tyler Breeze and Bull Dempsey. Bull knocks Tyler off the apron on accident which leads to Ciampa getting the clean pin. Breeze attacks Bull after the match.
– Kevin Owens comes out with the NXT Championship. The crowd loses its mind. Owens was never announced at any time during this match.

– Neville beats Owens via DQ after Owens hits Neville with the belt. Great match. Owens attempts to attack Neville after the bell, but Neville betters him until Tyler Breeze runs out. They double team Neville until Bálor makes the save, and Neville hits the Red Arrow on Breeze. Owens leaves with the belt as Bálor and Neville celebrate with the crowd.
