Those posters are awesome
-
Yeah, they are.
I can't believe they're doing the same amount of matches as SummerSlam.
-
Is the Network special going to be 2 hours and cover the 5 matches on the 1st poster?
Totally surreal seeing WWE sell a Liger shirt on their shop.

From what I understand, the top poster is the card for Takeover, the other matches are being taped for TV in the near future.
I am way more pumped for Takeover than SummerSlam.
-
Much like Beast in the East, four of the matches on the bottom poster are being taped before going in the air. They will air next Wednesday on NXT. The only match that will air live , is the debut of Apollo Crews.
-
Tonight's the night!
I really wanted to see that Fatal 4-Way from the Women, but I guess I'll have to wait until next Wednesday.
-
As of right now, I have one extra ticket if anyone in the area is interested. I posted to my facebook trying to get someone to go but I haven't had any luck, yet, so I figured I'd open it up to you guys on the off chance someone wants it and can make it.
-
Owens' promo on the NXT crowd at Full Sail was fantastic.
-
Jushin Liger is in a WWE ring. Cool.
-
Nice moment with Liger. I wonder what year Liger will go into the HOF.
How about the Full Sail Sucks chant? We've got a Brooklyn vs. Full Sail rivalry.
-
Blake and Murphy are terrible. Are rest holds their gimmick or something?
-
Despite that, the match and result got over huge.
-
The new shirt for Blue Pants may be the greatest thing they have ever released.
Uhaa Nation is a beast. He is a license to print money if Vince can control his mood swings.
-
Bold Prediction: Apollo Crews will be the next African American WWE World Champion.
Like the idea of the Dusty tag tournament. Reminds me of the 80's NWA.
-
Joe vs. Corbin was a lot better than I expected. Good hossfight.
When can we get Sasha vs. Kana?!
-
Yeah, that was good. Corbin never really got a chance to wrestle longer matches except against Rhyno, so it's hard to say he is or isn't good.
I think if Bailey loses, there will be an actual riot.
-
No heel wins so far tonight.....gotta think one of Sasha or Owens wins.
-
The two most logical match outcomes would be Balor and Bayley, so that would be interesting. Bayley has to win, but I think there are storyline possibilities for Owens to regain the title. Balor is untouchable at this point in the fan's eyes, his popularity wouldn't go down and Owens has been on a losing streak, so he could actually use it.
-
Sasha is unreal.
-
I can't wait for Vince to die so these matches can close out Raws and PPVs.
-
That may have been my favorite Divas match ever. Going to be hard for anything at SummerSlam to top it.
-
The way WWE is structured won't allow a women's match that amount of time and build. It's slowly changing, but it won't be catching up to how NXT treats women anytime soon.
Sara Del Rey is a Godsend.
I almost feel bad for Owens and Balor, gonna be hard to top this.
-
KO is fired up!
-
I hope they find a way for Drake Younger to take a crazy bump during this ladder match.
-
Owens is going to be sore tomorrow for Cesaro.
-
Great event. Easily my favorite Takeover special. NXT hit a home run tonight.
-
ROH posted some pics of their event tonight and the crowd did not look impressive. Granted, it's a ballpark and 3,000 spread out can look small, but WWE really hurt them (on purpose) tonight with the NXT special. I have no idea what their problem is with ROH, but I hope it ends soon because I don't want another wrestling company going out of business.
-

They didn't top it. They had a hell of a match, but nothing topped Banks and Bayley.
Christ on a stick, NXT is light years ahead of the main show.
I have a feeling the SummerSlam crowd is going to piss on a lot of stuff tommorow. Orton and Sheamus may get massively, MASSIVELY crapped on.
-
Cena/Rollins is guaranteed to end in a schmozz and probably UT/Lesnar as well. So, the crowd will not be very happy. 4 hours is a long time too.
-
Hi guys. Holy shit what a crowd tonight. I hope the "major angle" Meltzer is reporting will happen Monday night is something where NXT and Hunter revolt against Vince and the main roster. It's time to shake things up.
-
That's only a good idea if Vince is removed from power, otherwise Finn Balor will be jobbing to Heath Slater because Vince has to win everything even if it hurts him financially.
-
Listening to the Meltzer post-show, if anyone was curious why the crowd was distracted a couple times during the beginning of the ladder match, it's because a few fans tried to throw streamers into the ring, and they got KICKED OUT. The audience was booing that. A few minutes later they let the fans back in and the crowd started chanting "YES!"
Dave speculated that it was Barclay's that threw them out not knowing the deal with the streamers, and WWE told them to let them back in because streamers are fucking streamers and not anything to get in a tizzy over.
It's hilarious that those were the only streamers in the building tho, and none of them came close to the ring.

I actually was expecting streamers during Liger's entrance and was a little disappointed we didn't get them.
I didn't catch what the crowd was chanting during the opening match. It was to the tune of New Day Rocks/Sucks.

I KNEW IT

Wasn't it "Full Sail Sucks"?
On NXT TV, every mention of Takeover going to BROOKLYN got booed by the Full Sail faithful. Owens ripped them to shreds during his promo on the most recent TV episode.

I KNEW IT
I actually thought the "YES!" chants were for Daniel Bryan returning from the concession stand with cotton candy.

Same. I thought someone spotted Bryan in the stands.
