Loved take over 2 Lucha Dragons vs Ascension, amores shenanigans and completely relatable gimmick as I'm from New York, Kenta, and the main event were all incredible. I'm a bit disappointed in Zayn however, he's blown two spots at two big events that would have made the crowd go nuckin futs, and I know he's better than that. If he hit the orange crush In his match against breeze and the blue thunder bomb when Neville was doing the back hand springs the crowds would have erupted. I don't mind kalisto missing the yoshi tonic because that was more Viktors fault than kalisto's. I feel like Kidd doesn't get enough credit I love his whole character right now not to mention amazing matches

NXT TakeOver 2 was fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed every match, which is rare for any show. Those guys and gals know what they're doing down in NXT, and I fear the day they get called up. I hope WWE proves me wrong. I only watch NXT now since Ambrose was taken off TV. The way NXT puts storylines together, over months time is incredible. That's what I miss about WWE from Raw and SD. Everything feels SO rushed, all the time. Down in NXT, everything flows so well, and they have time to tell a story. I love Tyler Breeze and his character. The kid is a great athlete and never fails to impress me. The same goes for Zayn, Neville, and Kidd. I'm loving the way WWE is using Tyson Kidd in NXT. It's great. I'm also looking forward to Adrian v. Zayn. They hinted that at TakeOver 2 (if you haven't watched the Fatal 4 Way, you must). Nonetheless, I'm very excited for Thursday!

I thought it was brilliant. Nice to see the Luchadragons as NXT Tag Team Champions, was kinda disappointed that Charlotte retained the championship as I was rooting for Bayley, but after the match was great with Sasha Banks as well! The Fatal 4 Way was great! Some great spots, including the turnbuckle ddt from Zayn, it also looks like Neville is having a heel turn soon because of how they won.

What I liked:
Main Event Fatal Four way was off the charts! Great match!! A++
Zayn plays the bridesmaid/lovable loser better than anyone in wrestling history.
Charlotte vs Baily was very good. And proves what the women in WWE can do if given the proper time and build up.
Until last night I was on the fence with Enzo & Cass. But now I'm sold. They'd make a great "goofy but lethal" team on the main roster.
Baron Corbin... I'm buying into his stock as we speak! Cha-ching!!
Hideo Itami/KENTA. I shouldn't need to explain why.
Kalisto/Cara. Great team great action, very impressed.
What I didn't like:
Lefort needs a haircut for really reals.
The Ascension. Still not sold on them.
CJ Parker. Ugh... no. The less I see the better off I am.
Mojo vs Bull. Not a fan of either guy. Neither will make the main roster under their current gimmicks.
Positives outweighed the negatives ten fold. Great show. Solid 8.5 outta 10.

I was higher on the tag title match and the women's match then a few people and lower on the main event then mostly everyone.

The fatal 4 way was awesome as was Kenta's debut. I absolutely loved the LED apron.

A great event. I was legit standing in the final moments of the main event thinking "It's Zayns night! It's Zayns night!" Then perhaps one of the best heel turns in recent memory by Neville. An awesome show. I also like how they're keeping the Takeover name, like the In Your House events with a different sub-name each event. The next one, NXT Takeover: Neville vs Zayn.The other matches were alright, some were far too short. Are you sure Neville had a heel turn? I moreso thought it was just him doing anything he could to win, which sounds like a heel trait but seemed otherwise with how it was done. I think it could be the first step towards a heel turn for him or Zayn. At the very least, the first step towards a feud for the title between the two and that will be awesome. I thought the event was solid. The worst of the NXT events, but still a very solid B+/A- show that I enjoyed.

This is literally my summation of the show. The only thing I'd add is that this is the first non-PPV show WWE has put up that I've enjoyed since around MitB.

Liked: - Kalisto & Sin Cara beating The Ascension for the NXT Tag Titles (I was pretty sure that The Ascension would run over them like they've done with every other team)
- Debut of KENTA (the NXT name doesn't bother me at all; I think it's pretty cool)
- The LED ring apron
- Baron Corbin (that finisher he has is pretty damn cool)
- Enzo Amore & Big Cass are pretty entertaining
- Fatal 4Way for the NXT Title was fantastic & I'm glad that Neville retained (They can either go two ways with this: turn Zayn or turn Neville. I hope they go the unconventional route and turn Zayn heel; would make a good storyline)
Didn't Like: - Bull Dempsey & Mojo Rawley...yawn.
- Bayley not winning the NXT Women's Title. I really hoped that she'd win and was disappointed when Charlotte retained

Loved the show. Lucha Dragons were cool but that chant has to go. Bayley is hot and I dig her character, Charlotte is super talented but I'm not sure she should Wooo so much. Enzo is hilarious, needs more mic time! Fatal 4 way was sweet, Zayn's chase for the belt is enjoyable. Tyson Kidd is awesome, FACT. My only real issue is I don't like the Kenta name change, I get why they do it but it always bugs me.

Likes
Diva match was decent. Charlotte had some cool moves. She's becoming more than just a gymnast in the ring. I love Bayley and hope she wins the title some day, same with Sasha.
Jojo did great doing ring announcing. I'd be happy if she just did that forever.
The Fatal Four Way was awesome. All four guys showed why they are top stars in NXT.
The tag match was good. Hunicara and Kalisto work really well together. I love the matching attite.
Baron Corbin had a good debut. A quick squash to begin with is fine with me. I want to see what else he can do and hope the squashes don't last too long.
Cas and Enzo. I love everything about them.
KENTA had a good debut. Looked strong taking out the Ascension by himself. I don't mind the new name and loved that it was explained on the program why his name was changed instead of it just happening. More name changes should be done this way.
Dislikes
Mojo vs. Bull. I just don't care for either of them.
Charlotte's Moonsault
Would have liked
Debuts for Steen and Devitt but not upset over it not happening yet.

Pretty good show thought the other 2 NXT shows were better all round though. Baron Corbins finish was sick, but why was it made out to be that he was debuting, he's jobbed for a while?

People are over looking the best part of the show.
Tyson Kidd wearing Beats to the ring to ignore the crowd while simultaneously becoming the biggest heel in 2014 for wearing headphones.

Loved it. Way better than any of the main shows right now. LOVED; > Main event FFW. MOTY candidate. > Enzo Amore (and Big Cass). He has easily become my favourite guy in the wwe, haven't seen a person do babyface this well in a long time. > the tag match. never seen kalisto before and i was really impressed. so much better than the uso twins. > Baley vs Charlotte Flair. Fan ingtastic. Bayley is very very likeable, but jesus, Charlotte plays a heel to perfection. She is absolutely brutal, really want to see her dismantle the main roster of women. > Renee because c'mon. > Baron Corbin's finisher. We didn't get much from that match but that finisher looked gorgeous. DIDN'T LIKE: > Kenta debut. I didn't like that he was given that kind of babyface gimmick when his English is so poor. I think he should have come out as a silent badass type, and/or had a translator. His moveset and look will get him over, he doesn't need to say anything. Also the name... I'm not sure about that one. > Bull Dempsey and Mojo. Bull was nothing special but Mojo was just painful to watch. > Byron Saxton. Awfully forced heel, not a fan at all. But yeah my criticisms were way more minor than what the show did great. It seems there's a focus on both characters AND wrestling down in NXT. Standards surprisingly just seem that much higher. Having not really watched much of it before, they did really well to set out who the characters were and what exactly was going on storyline-wise. I have never seen Bayley in action before and yet I give more of a crap about her than I do half the guys in WWE. Raw has been disappointment after disappointment. Looks like I know where to get my WWE fix from now on.

Only recently started watching NXT, but I think it's easily the best thing WWE has going, right now. The opening match was awesome (glad to see Sin Cara getting some love, finally) -- a lot of the rest of the card was entertaining, but I just haven't been with it long enough to be attached to most of them. Loved the womens match (straight TNA level quality) -- Bayley's legit, and Flair's daughter has great talent. The main event was pretty great in some parts. I'm sure most wont agree, but I'll say this -- Tyson Kidd could be on Chris Jericho level entertaining for the next couple decades, if they just worked on his charisma and promo skills. I'd have rather he or Zayn won, but I dig Neville so far. Not feeling Breeze, but -- he's great in the ring. Hideo's debut was legit. I loved the chair in the ring, just to sit down, aspect. I'm looking forward to NXT moving forward. Well it's not sin cara, it's hunico lol which is why people like him now because it's not a total botch fest True enough, but I still think the 'original' Sin Cara would have benefited greatly from some time in NXT. I still don't fully blame him for being thrown to the wolves so quickly. He needed time to alter his style. HunicoCara, with time to develop, I could see them bringing him up to take Rey's place, eventually. Especially considering WWE doesn't have much in the way of hispanic performers, right now. They have a large market to appeal too, after all. Idk that he'll ever be mentioned for possible World Title runs like the original Cara was, but -- never know, these days.

Once again, watching an NXT special has made me have hope for wrestling. This one wasn't as good as the one from May, but I enjoyed it.
