That was so good I wanted to cry when it was over.
Glad I was wrong about EC3.

That match was fantastic until the table spot. The guys trying to stop Gargano and the lack of a ref for the GargaNo Escape especially fell flat for me. The handcuffs and exposed ring finally being used was a good effect, and seeing Corino is always cool, but I'm a bit disappointed. Still, Ciampa and Gargano are amazing and even with the overbooked finish, they did an fantastic job.

Gargano & Ciampa are two of the best wrestling storytellers in any company.

What's sad is, Meltzer will probably give this 5 stars. Like that means anything anymore now that he's been dishing out 6 & 7 stars. Dude has ruined his own rating system IMO.

I never watch NXT on a weekly basis but i'm always entertained by the Takeovers.

BTW - mark this date down as the first WWE show in Chicago to not have a CM Punk chant. That's what happens when you put on a good show. This crossed my mind several times during the show. The crowd did react to something going on in the crowd during the women’s match, not sure what that was about, but the rarest of occurrences without a CM Punk chant. Surely that will change tomorrow night.

That show was really meh to me. Honestly I think it's the first NXT special I didn't like. The Tag Team title match was incredible and a great start. But everything else after just fell flat. I was expecting Ricochet vs Dream to steal the show but I didn't care for it.

I couldn’t even make out what they were chanting. So they’ve turned on the beach balls now? This is a momentous day!
