[ratcliffja]

That was a perfect cien.

 

[somedevil]

She threw a DIY shirt at him.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Had Takeover ever not had a great opener?

Happy to see Almas finally get a ppv win.

 

[SavoyPrime]

Damn! What a hot opening match!

 

[excelsiorlef]

Pretty sure that's a DIY SHIRT!

 

[LiQuid!]

F- finish, match went from 4.5 stars to 2.5 stars in the span of literal seconds.

 

[Ithil]

The hammerlock DDT is probably a little over complicated but it sure looks like it kills dudes.

 

[TimeEffect]

the right man won. I want Andrade on Smackdown but Rusev stole his image

 

[peaceland]

great opener

 

[the most mountain of dews]

This was actually the match I was least excited for......i was wrong.

 

[SparkleMotion]

Why don't they let the main roster guys work like this on PPV's?

This is so good.

Vince doesn't like it.

 

[ghostmind]

Los Ingobernables lost son is back.

 

[Stider]

That was a #DIY shirt too lol

 

[Rhaknar]

Why don't they let the main roster guys work like this on PPV's?

This is so good.

I honestly dont understand. NXT is basically the perfect midpoint between WWE's ultra safe boring mode, and NJPW ultra risky amazing mode that is probably not healthy for anyone in the longrun.

 

[geomon]

Johnny is the best pure babyface in the WWE.

I could easily see Gargano as a Daniel Bryan type face on Raw.

 

[half a moon]

Never seen either wrestle. I like Gargano

 

[serenewarfare]

Almas is working. Finally. The past few months he's started to hit his groove, and this was his launching pad. This was the excellent match he was missing. Sky is the limit now.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Really good match. Great start to Takeover.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Distracted by a DIY shirt, lol

They should have had him look at it and get upset. Didn't give it enough time to sell imo.

 

[ReiGun]

you know Vince is in the back thinking how could i fuck up Gargano on the main roster -_-

Two words: Crusierweight Division.

 

[excelsiorlef]

F- finish, match went from 4.5 stars to 2.5 stars in the span of literal seconds.

Oh come on.

 

[Uno Venova]

What a great fucking ending

 

[Ithil]

Almas definitely feels like he's turned a corner. Gargano doesn't lose a thing in singles either.

 

[Gurrry]

Its crazy how drastic of a difference the reaction of this show is versus the reaction tomorrow for SummerSlam. Completely night and day.

 

[serenewarfare]

DANIEL PLEASE SIGN THE ICONIC DUO

 

[Arrowgigantic]

MAH BOI D. BRINE

 

[Nocturnowl]

YES, finally Almas gets a notable win.

What a opener, and holy shit Mauro brings it to the commentary table, dude gets you mad invested.
I'd say I can't believe they bumped him off the main roster (with bullying bullshit mind you) but it's arguably better this way.

 

[somedevil]

lol, Bryan reaction to the iconic duo

 

[RBH]

Peyton Royce and Billie Kay talking to Daniel Bryan!!!!!



:O

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

Now we'll never get Iconic on Talking Smack :'(

 

[SparkleMotion]

Its crazy how drastic of a difference the reaction of this show is versus the reaction tomorrow for SummerSlam. Completely night and day.

People get excited for good wrestling.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Peyton Royce and Billie Kay talking to Daniel Bryan!!!!!



:O

Getting Bella twin flashbacks.

 

[The Strokes]

I missed my boy Andrade.

Did Johnny did the setup for La Mistica? Fuck, holy shit, fuck, fuck, I would've died seeing that live. I'll rewatch this after Takeover's over.

 

[daemissary]

Crowd is great, match was great, Mauro on commentary is great.

And the Iconic Duo trying to get signed by Bryan lol. Fuck yeah NXT.

 

[Gurrry]

oh shittt scouting dat talent!!!

callups baby!

 

[Mahonay]

Its crazy how drastic of a difference the reaction of this show is versus the reaction tomorrow for SummerSlam. Completely night and day.

It's almost like when you don't book ridiculous garbage, fans will be invested in the show.

SummerSlam has a great looking main event that's it.

 

[Rhaknar]

Come on Sanity!

 

[serenewarfare]

We're definitely getting multiple debuts this week given that they've highlighted Kurt and Bryan being at the show.

 

[LiQuid!]

Oh come on.

Any distraction finish is immediate -1 stars, the fact that it was a DIY t-shirt is another -1 star. 2.5 stars is still probably generous honestly.

 

[TimeEffect]

I could easily see Gargano as a Daniel Bryan type face on Raw.

He's absolutely going to be huge. I can see Ciampa/Gargabo for the CW title

 

[Angry Grimace]

F- finish, match went from 4.5 stars to 2.5 stars in the span of literal seconds.

You're out of your mind.

4 star match with the completely correct finish. The only thing it needed was Gargano to look at the shirt for a couple more seconds to sell the Ciampa distraction.

 

[Uno Venova]

I know NXT brings out surprisingly great matches but there's no way this is going to be watchable.

 

[ReiGun]

Daniel better sign my Icons.

Don't let them go to Raw to work dark matches with Dana Brooke.

 

[JehutyRunner]

WHAT. A. MATCH.

DBRY BETTER SIGN THE ICONIC DUO TO SMACKDOWN.

 

[Gaiaknight]

Haus match time

 

[Wagram]

Almas definitely deserves more credit than he gets. Great at selling.

Right man won imo. Gargano is over the moon.

 

[Sinatar]

oh shittt scouting dat talent!!!

callups baby!

Oh boy, who are they going to ruin next!?!?

 

[Mahonay]

He's absolutely going to be huge. I can see Ciampa/Gargabo for the CW title

Please god no

 

[excelsiorlef]

Any distraction finish is immediate -1 stars, the fact that it was a DIY t-shirt is another -1 star. 2.5 stars is still probably generous honestly.

You're ridiculous.

Why do you watch if something so small gets you that upset?

 

[Angry Grimace]

Nikki Cross about to be on my TV

Bueno
