Ricky Jackson Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Takeovers have delivered time after time, and on paper this looks like another hot show. Personally, I want them to say fuck it and let Balor and Joe bleed buckets. Should be a blast Andrade "Cien" Almas vs Tye Dillinger American Alpha vs The Revival Asuka vs Nia Jax Nakamura vs Aries Joe vs Balor Cage Match Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpst Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Will there be a PTBN reaction show for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NintendoLogic Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Is the cage match escape only? I haven't seen anything specifying the rules on wwe.com or anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 I can't watch this till about 10 eastern, so I will be away to avoid spoilers. On paper this looks like a nothing show, but with some killer matches. For some reason I always kind of love those type of shows the most. Besides the fun Sombra debut, every match has the potential to get way over three stars, even up to four and a half. Could just be a solid and fun time or a great show. Either way I'm pumped. I do have to wonder if any type of angle happens here which has to do with the draft in any way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 I also hope they let them bleed, but I doubt it. My wife's birthday is tonight so I am going to be avoiding the wrestleweb until tomorrow morning sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple H said on the conference call that "The End" has multiple meanings that will be revealed during the event. Tommy End run-in during the main event to KO both wrestlers?

Both guys are great, and I don't think Sombra would get jittery at Full Sail after being a main eventer in CMLL (in before empty Arena Mexico jokes).

It's not that it won't be good or Sombra will be jittery. I think it will be a short showcase match just to get Sombra over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 I'm not following NXT closely at all, but I'm gonna watch this, as I do with every NXT special. Curious to see what Asuka can do with Nia Jax, who doesn't strike me as a very good nor interesting worker. The main event could be super cool if they don't do a blood stop every two minutes.

WingedEagle Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Big decision will be whether to put this on the computer when basketball starts or save the second half for after the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sek69 Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 If the first two games are any indication, the basketball game will probably be a done deal pretty quick. Also it's pretty interesting Triple H has been posting photos on Twitter today of HBK and Nash in town for the show, and doing the old "you never know who'll show up for NXT!" deal. Maybe we're supposed to think someone new is going to pop up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WingedEagle Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Definitely wouldn't be surprised if this game is over early as well, but that still means tape delaying the second half of Takeover and going dark online. First world problems! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.S. Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Tye Dillinger is over as rover. Andrade "Cien" Almas has an awful outfit and look, but all of that will be polished in developmental. Terrible match IMO. Not impressed by Almas so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad Dog Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Yeah, Dillinger excels at making other people look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...TG Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 They called Andrade's finisher a "double knee" but it looked more like running crotch to the face. Needs some work IMO. They both looked great though, loved Andrade's pose on ropes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 That was cool, but I don't know if we need another Latino Guy Who Likes to Have Fun TM, on any WWE roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 The Revival is a great act to see live. A great heel act and their ringside chatter is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Triple H is now the "Father of NXT". A little weird since Dusty is always known for calling NXT "his kids" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
