1. Andrade “Cien” Almas defeated Johnny Gargano. Gargano was about to put Almas away with a until Zelina Vega threw a #DIY T-shirt into his face, allowing Almas to connect with a dropkick followed by a hammerlock DDT for the victory.
-> really great opener for the show and thank god Almas won the match via a DIY interference. Great booking and both wrestler got the best out of it. 8 of 10 points.
2. NXT Tag Team Championship Match: SAnitY defeated the Authors Of Pain (c). This match featured Corey Graves on guest commentary. Both teams brawled before the match even started, with Authors Of Pain eventually clearing the ring. Though originally not scheduled to compete, SAnitY’s Eric Young switched spots with Killian Dain (who had yet to be tagged in) mid-match. Later, Dain put Akam through a table on the outside of the ring after Akam had caught Nikki Cross mid-flying crossbody, allowing Wolfe and Young to hit Rezar with flying neckbreaker for the pinfall victory.
-> WOW what a surprise with SAnitY winning the titles. But to be hounest - there wasn´t left for AOP in NXT as champs. Another great match with 8 of 10 points
— After the match,
Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly, collectively known as reDRagon, hit the
ring and beat down both SAnitY and the Authors Of Pain.
3. Aleister Black defeated Hideo Itami. This match featured Jim Ross on guest commentary. Aleister Black was played to the ring by Code Orange featuring the frontman of Incendiary. Early on in the match, Itami busted Black open, possibly breaking his nose. After a hard-hitting match, a bloody Black won after connecting with a sudden Black Mass kick.
-> no time to waste at the show and another great match. This feud isnt over yet and I can´t wait to see more of them. Right winner with Black. 8 of 10 points too.
4. NXT Women’s Championship Match: Asuka (c) defeated Ember Moon. After a series of very close near-falls on Asuka, the women’s champion was able to catch Ember Moon in the Asuka Lock and force her to tap out. Asuka remains undefeated.
-> this is my match of the evening. Clear win for ASUKA - that was a surprise for me too. But I guess there will be one more match between these two. 9 of 10 points. THIS is WOMANS WRESTLING at this best.
5. NXT Championship Match: Drew McIntyre defeated Bobby Roode (c). McIntyre was led to the ring by the New York City Police Department Emerald Pipes & Drums. McIntyre connected with a Claymore, but Roode was able to get a foot on the rope to break up the pin. Later, McIntyre attempted the Claymore again but was countered into a spinebuster by Roode, who hit a Glorious DDT shortly thereafter, also for a two count. Roode connected with a second Glorious DDT, but then McIntyre reversed a third Glorious DDT attempt into a Claymore for the victory.
-> Very good mainevent with a title change at the end. Maybe Roode is heading to the main roster at tonights SummerSlam. 8,5 of 10 points and great booking.
— After the match, McIntyre was beaten down by reDRagon and a debuting Adam Cole. Cole posed with the NXT Championship as TakeOver went off the air.
-> After a less great NXT TAKEOVER BROOKLY 2 this was a really great wrestling PPV. 5 awesome matches, some surprises and new feudes on the horizon. Really liked the booking. THIS IS WRESTLING.
