I've preferred Ciampa since the first time I saw them, but I think they had Gargano win so he can stay in NXT for a few more months and eventually give Ciampa that big win, plus Gargano has won me over more than anyone I can remember Either way that was ing amazing and I'm hoping everyone o the Mania card is ready and willing to top tonight's show Plus, Johnny keeps losing big matches. As great of an underdog as he is, he has to win sometimes. He dug deeper than ever because of the personal issue between them.

Fantastic TakeOver! I'm definitely glad that Gargano finally got his solo victory on a TakeOver.
I'd like to see him challenge for the title once more before his inevitable main roster debut.

I can't express how good Ciampa vs Gargano was, I was on the edge of my seat chanting "NXT", "YES YES YES", "JOHNNY WRESTLING", " YOU CIAMPA", and "HOLY SHIT" on my couch. I never chant when I watch WWE on my TV, today was a first. This was a 6/5🌟 match IMO. 3-2. This was my WrestleMania 34

Upset that Gargano won't win the title off Almas. Finally overcoming his demons in Ciampa allowing him to defeat the person who always seemingly had his number would have been the perfect way to end the saga for me, ah well.
Excellent show, just excellent.

Whoever chose to go to ROH, missed the best PPV in the last decade

A star rating can't be a used for Tommaso Ciampa vs. Johnny Gargano. Easily a MOTY candidate for sure.

What a show. That was the best Takeover yet. Every match was unique.

A lot of great wrestling tonight on NXT!
But the one thing I loved the most.... Roderick Strong's heel turn!! The fact he is now in the Undisputed Era makes so much sense from a history stand point. They were all ROH peeps, and honestly, I would love to see Nigel manage them and side with them.

For me match of the night has to be Gargano/Ciampa in the Unsanctioned Match. Nothing comes close to it not only because of the chemistry and the history but the overall personal nature of the match. A lot of brutal spots but also it had a fair share of wrestling and brawling. However, whoever said Ciampa should have gone over then you are 100 percent right. I mean if you want to push Ciampa as the #1 heel on this show then no greater way for him to get heat than to get rid of Gargano. However, Gargano going over in the end makes sense especially if you want him to get back into the NXT Championship picture. Their match is definitely better than HBK/Jericho or even HHH/HBK as far as Unsanctioned matches go in WWE.
6 Man Ladder Match definitely was the show stealer for me and nothing comes close. Adam Cole essentially becoming a double champion basically puts him even more over in NXT hell it should propel him straight to the NXT Championship. I can take Cole as NXT North American Champion but I don't see him holding it for long especially if Black is gonna need new contenders soon for that newly won NXT Championship.
I still can't even believe that Strong is the newest member of the Undisputed Era. They are at 4 strong now with Strong joining their faction and with the 4 of them as a group as a faction they can truly take over NXT. Adam Cole as the main eventer of the group, Fish & O'Reilly as the tag team and Strong as the mid card talent in the NXT North American Championship picture.

To show you how good Ciampa/Gargano was “what a match” is trending worldwide and it’s not even a hashtag.

Also, did anyone else notice Shane McMahon sitting front row all through the night?? He was sitting on the camera side. I also seen Sasha and Bayley sitting front row too for the entire show on that side as well.
It's kind of neat to see WWE stars and even a head WWE guy like Shane McMahon sitting with the fans, taking in the NXT action!

I’m sorry but after being out of touch with wrestling for so long, to finally be able to buy the network and watch NXT; is amazing. I love how it is produced, the matches and everything about it.
It’s got me hooked back on wrestling again. Something I haven’t been for a long long long time

It’s got me hooked back on wrestling again. Something I haven’t been for a long long long time No need to apologize. The show was amazing last night. Nothing to do but enjoy it. Any time I’m down on the main roster product, NXT virtually always reminds me that I’m still truly a fan and I love wrestling.

I actually see it being Roddy/Black for the belt in May. And I hope I’m correct because those two could tear the house down easily.
