*Aleister Black in action
*Drew McIntyre v Wesley Blake
---
That's right, it's Wednesday again and that means ONLY one thing... Time for another episode of NXT. This week is another one of our Takeover pre and post show editions, featuring matches taped in Chicago before the live special went to air, as well as any fallout from the events of last Saturday.
Our featured bout tonight sees Drew McIntyre take on Wesley Blake in singles competition. The Scotsman has returned to the WWE fold bearing a much more brutal attitude than in his previous tenure, and this has drawn the attention of the former NXT Tag Team Champion in Blake. In what will be his first televised match in over eight months, can Blake pull off the surprise over the former Intercontinental Champion? Or will McIntyre fight his way to another victory?
Another talent riding a wave of momentum is Aleister Black. So far this dangerous Dutchman is undefeated in his NXT tenure, winning his matches quick and decisively off the back of intimidating presence and a striking arsenal topped off by the devastating Black Mass kick. He's even made a quick stop on the main roster, defeating Curt Hawkins on Main Event during the recent European tour. Any future opponent must be aware of what awaits them, so who is next to step up to The Anti-Hero? Find out tonight.
Finally, vignettes have been running for weeks hyping up the arrival of someone known only as The Velveteen Dream. Seemingly inspired by the pageantry of the late great musician Prince, this man may well be looking to cream his opponents and dish out some purple pain on his way to a debut victory tonight as he competes in singles action.
All that, and the latest on the situations surrounding the NXT championship pictures and the breakup of #DIY, TONIGHT on NXT!
