NXT Takeover Chicago - GLORIOUS vs Japan's GTS Guy
 

http://www.wwe.com/f/styles/wwe_16_9...4a308cd858.jpg

Card for tonight:

Beat me by one minute...... I will acquiesce to this thread.......

Was anyone rooting for Strong to win the #1 contender match after they did those video packages for him?

I get the feeling Itami wins the belt tonight... hopefully Asuka also retains...two Asian superstars as top competitors in NXT would = MIND BLOWN.

A bit although wouldn't be surprised if he becomes Roode's next big feud assuming Itami doesn't win.

Creepy long hair fan and his mom/grandma/sugar mom/grandma in the front row again..........

You mean like Nakamura and Asuak already were?

Yeah, but I mean for it to happen again, can you even imagine?

watching

Me too...crowd seems hot so far...

"Ran him down like a Mack truck"... Nigel's either been listening to Styles' theme a lot lately or watching old reruns of The Secret World of Alex Mack.

Love when Nigel says "Jaw"

Roderick Strong wins.

Decent match.

Really glad that Roddy finally used an actual backbreaker as his finisher...... seemed ridiculous to call him "The Messiah of the backbreaker" and then not have a backbreaker as his finisher........

Strong-Young match was good overall.

Don't care about the UK stuff at all (no offense)

Might have to do with the only bit I have actually watched is when Tyler Bate fought JAck Gallagher on that one NXT episode......

I missed the 1st match b/c I was getting a haircut - just tuning in-

Tyler Bate proportions look all out of whack..... Reminds me of a midget wrestler......

Tyler Bate looks like a "right wanker"..... Pete Dunne looks like some sort of rat-shark.......

Let's go Tyler "BANE" Bate

lol amorphous blob fan in Enzo Amore sweater

Debut episode of the UK show was pretty funny for how bad the WWE green screened JR and Nigel for it at times.

Smiley green shirt fan spotted..... sitting in the aisle instead of front and centre like usual........

Putting UK stuff on NXT is pretty much what the WWE should have done for the Cruiser guys before 205 Live was ready.

The way they handled the early months on RAW really damaged the division.

Jim Ross automatically makes any match 2,000 x better

Cool shot of crowd right before the bell rang imo

Pete Dunne seems great... just based on his look / "attitude"... seems like a v good heel

Are we sure that Tyler Bate isn't just two midgets standing on each other's shoulders.......

Can anyone spot drebin?

Jim Ross labeling Pete Dunne w/ "evil intentions"

what was Drebin look like, please post a pic with a tpww sign and a dog

meant to ask

"how was the 1st match, should I watch it later"

good match so far...

Was good overall. Strong pretty much did what Tye Dillinger couldn't do and beat Young and Sanity at a Takeover.

Crowd was really hot for it as well.

Was ok... not worth watching the entire thing... should just watch the last minute or w/e if anything

Trick question. Drebin isn't here, man.

Dunne beating the crap of Bate while doing a submission at the same time was pretty cool.

holy shit at airplane spin speed

Yeah.... good looking viscous punches too.........
