I enjoyed the post show quite a bit. Some nice promos, and Heyman was fantastic.
Also, I love Neville's shirt. My favorite of the NXT shirts.

This thread was all messed up for me too. Couldn't tell if anything was actually posting. Otherwise I would have joined in and posted more.
I'm trying to catch up on old NXT shows and on one from March 13. That picture on a stick of Summer that Sasha and Charlotte have is creepy as heck.

That was all fantastic. Heyman proving once again why he is the best on the mic. Sami and Breeze's fantastic match. Charlotte and Natalya having a ing phenomenal match. The main event. My reaction to the entire show, pre and post included:

Such a fantastic show. The two title matches, while fairly predictable, delivered, and Zayn/Breeze was unbelievable. I'm really hoping that Breeze becomes the new NXT Champion whenever he receives his shot.

Tonight's NXT Takeover, I loved as equal as I loved ArRIVAL.
-Adam Rose vs. Camacho was OK. I loved the entrance from outside the arena to the ring. -The NXT Tag Team Title was good. I enjoyed it, of course the Ascension won the titles. Question is, is there a tag team on NXT that looks credible enough to beat them? I don't know. -Sami Zayn vs. Tyler Breeze, was awesome. I was a little surprised to see Breeze get the win. Sami Zayn losing these important matches reminds me a little of Daniel Bryan as to they're just building and building for Sami Zayn to finally get a title shot and wins the NXT Title so it feels more important than it already would. -I loved seeing Rusev beat the crap out of Mojo Rawley. First time I marked out for Rusev. -Charlotte vs. Natalya, I knew the match would be good, but I didn't expect that match to be as great as it was. That Divas match was in my opinion better than Paige vs. Emma from ArRIVAL. This match was my favorite Divas match of the year so far. -The Main Event was great as well. I liked the end where Tyson Kidd didn't shake Adrian's hand, signalling a heel turn in the end.

You kinda have to feel sorry for Natalya in real life....I mean, I'm sure she likes her job and is a respected veteran and it's a very important role that she's in to kind of put the young girls through their training....but man, I bet just as a pride thing she'd like to have a little spotlight every now and then?
Yeah, Natalya is on Total Divas and she gets a lot of attention for that....but she's always been a WRESTLER first. It's gotta irk her just a little bit that in a Divas division that was struggling, they put the belt on people like Maryse, Alicia Fox, Eve and Kelly Kelly over her, then Kaitlyn basically won it by accident, then it went on to AJ who is barely 5 feet tall, and then when AJ decided to leave WWE, rather than put in on Natalya who was already established, they chose to put it on Paige in her first match on the main roster and they've really done nothing with her as Champion. In fact, Alica Fox is the Diva getting the most TV time and the CHAMPION, Paige, is wrestling on internet only shows like WWE Superstars.
Kinda like everyone bitched that Daniel Bryan deserved the WWE Title because he's a great guy and he works hard.....as much as wins and losses and titles are totally scripted, you have to feel like Natalya deserves the Title again.
And on a side note, I think that it's kinda bad that they're sending WWE veterans down to NXT to lose. Tyson Kidd lost tonight to an NXT rookie. How's he supposed to be taken seriously in a match against a WWE Superstar ever again? They effectively ended his career in WWE tonight. Same with Natalya. She just lost to Ric Flair's daughter on NXT. How am I supposed to believe that she could beat any of the WWE Divas on the main roster, except Summer Rae and Eva Marie?
I understand that Triple H wants to "blur the line"....but this would be like sending the best MLB pitcher down to AAA and having him get lit up or the best hitter in MLB down to the minors and have him get struck out 4 times....there's a reason why the NXT wrestlers are not on the WWE main roster yet, because clearly whoever makes these decisions feels that they aren't ready to be there yet. But if you watch the show tonight, Charlotte beat a multi-time WWE Divas Champion in Natalya and Adrian Neville beat Tyson Kidd, a former WWE Tag Team Champion...if this was real sports competition, they'd probably get the call up since clearly they can compete with opponents on the other side of that line.

Whoever hates women's wrestling must be shown Natalya vs Charlotte. If they still hate it then I have to question why.
I didn't care for Charlotte before tonight but I'm now a fan.
They both put on the best Diva's match in a very long time.
I cannot wait until we see that caliber of Diva's match on Raw, Smackdown and WWE PPV.

The last three matches were all kinds of awesome, I can't wait for the next one of these live specials, as ArRival and Take Over both were really good. NXT is such a weird beast, it has all the touches of a WWE product, but it's booked so differently. Guys like Bo, Big E, Sami, Breeze, and others being booked as top stars, where as, on the main roster, not to discredit them mind you, but on the main roster, they'd most likely be midcard acts, or at best, a guy like Jericho or Ziggler where they can be used as main event players, but never really given the ball. Not to say they won't, the WWE seems to be evolving with the talent it's pushing on the main roster, as well as NXT. But still, it's odd to see women's wrestling be treated seriously, guys like Tyson and Adrian being used in main event roles, and more.
And for that reason, I like it. It's like this indy wrestling fed, if WWE was bankrolling it. Awesome matches, great talent, even when they bring in WWE guys like Clay, Kidd, and others, they are used to help get the NXT guys over and never really take away from them. Plus, bringing in main roster talent helps put over how important NXT is and how it really is the future. In fact, I'd love to see someone like Kidd, Hawkins, Clay or another main roster guy or girl for that matter, be given one of the belts to reignite their careers and like I said, continue to put over the importance of NXT and how it's the future of the WWE.

I'm hoping WWE lets Charlotte defend her belt a lot more than they let Paige defend it.. A rematch with Nattie would be awesome but we also need to see her have long title defense against Bayley and soon Becky Lynch (who should be aligning with Bayley soon). Of course Sasha and Charlotte are eventually going to break up so I want to see that match for the belt as well.

Great show tonight. Zayn/Breeze and Natalya/Charlotte were incredible, and the main event was good too.

I love Breeze's character and now that I've seen that he can have an awesome 10+ minute match I like him a lot more!
LOL at him posing on the announce table and telling Neville "Remember me?".
I think the lady who was touching up his makeup and wiping down the table before he laid on it was a recently signed developmental diva so I wonder if she will be with him more often?

Whoever hates women's wrestling must be shown Natalya vs Charlotte. If they still hate it then I have to question why. Women's wrestling sucks because 9/10 women aren't athletically gifted as Charlotte, Beth Phoenix, Natalya, etc. That ONE women's match is ONE good match, out of the 50 horrible ones we see. While Charlotte/Nattie was a great match, it definitely had it's major flaws. Very slow paced and quite a few awkward moments, where both weren't on the same page. Especially the spot where neither were selling the Figure Four. HOWEVER, for being slow... it still told a great story. I literally skipped the opener. Rose is a gimmick and there was no chance Camacho was getting the win. The tag team match was literally a glorified squash. Kalisto took a best for 4-5 solid minutes, Ricardo botched a springboard forearm and then The Ascension finished them off. Was really hoping we'd get to see more from SDS. Oh well. Back to Konor and Viktor having no challengers, or anyone to drop the gold to. Really should've signed Davey and Eddie. Zayn/Breeze was great, but not as good as I was hoping. Again, a few moments where it fell apart a little... but still a really good match. I do feel the "This is awesome!" chant is ruining a lot of matches for me, just like it did/does in ROH. Really thought Breeze was getting the three after that superkick. Shocked me when Sami got the shoulder up. I assume with Zayn starting to work dark matches, that he'll be the next to be called up. Skipping the NXT Championship step in his career. I hate Rusev, but I'd be lying if I wasn't happy to see that moron Mojo get his face kicked in and beat down. I guess Rusev and Lana will be working a NXT taping soon, to build this Rusev/Mojo feud... which will ultimate lead to Mojo being put over. Charlotte/Nattie was a great match and the right female won. Charlotte is such an overall great talent and it's time for a heel Women's Champion... but is she even heel now? I expect a Charlotte/Sasha feud for the strap soon. Main Event was good, but that crowd was drained. SO awesome to see Matt Bennett work the NXT Championship match. One of my idols, along with Chioda and Brian Hebner. Neville shined in a few spots, but Kidd showed why Punk referred to him as a "workhorse". Kidd turning (hopefully) at the end was a nice touch. I expect Kidd to move back into the main roster as a heel, Neville and Breeze to feud and I honestly think we'll get Zayn continuing his feud with Graves... for Sami's send off. Awesome show overall. Excited for the future of the WWE, but more so of NXT.

Takeover thoughts. I love Adam Rose. Total Rose bud. Hope Hakus son can start doing a little better. Ascension is awesome. Ricardo shouldn't be wrestling. I hope Kalisto isn't another Mistico. Zayn theme change. Meh whatever. His whole thing is his ring work. But CHANGE BREEZE THEME?! YOU SOBS ! Yeah whatever he sings his own theme now but that other theme was like. Apart of his entrance. Wtf man. Still he had a great showing and that was prob breezes best match yet. No doubt. Hope he wins the belt and changes his theme back. Charlotte vs Natalya. Wow. Best woman's match I've seen in a long time. Charlotte isn't just some chick living off her fathers name. She's the real deal. I loved her theme too though and they changed it but at least now rics theme is incorporated. She is damn good. Great match. Neville vs Kidd Fantastic. Quality quality stuff. This is why NXT is one of my favorite things to watch every week.

WWE's 3 minute division sucks and it's not the Divas' fault. If the WWE gave the Divas 10-15 minute matches instead of 3, the division would be phenomenal. Instead, they treat the division like garbage. Well, lately they have been trying to make it mean more but they have a long way to go. And the male fans who treat the Divas like pieces of meat instead of actual wrestlers help nothing.
