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.

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.

I hope they find a way for Drake Younger to take a crazy bump during this ladder match.
