Completely agree. Takeover left all the other shows crushed under its mighty boot. Every single match at NXT TO had pretty great to amazing wrestling. WM had decent booking, but other than Kofi/Bryan and Miz/Shane it was just boring wrestling with no real heartbeat at all. Vince relies too much on "spectacle" and not enough on "substance". Takeover is all about substance, with some spectacle sprinkled in. And when you do it like that, the spectacle parts mean more. I remember saying to my brother that WALTER/Dunne was probably the worst match on the card. It STILL ended up being infinitely better than all the matches at Mania. I do think Takeover, overall, was a better show and one of the best ever. But Kofi vs. Bryan was better than any match from Takeover and I LOVED those first three matches.

I take it you’re a Kofi fan and wanted him to win? If so that may have played a part in why you enjoyed that match more than I did. I think Gargano/Cole is the best match of the year, possibly even ever in NXT.

I didn't have much emotional investment in the match until like the last couple weeks and I was marking when he won, so I'd definitely say I'm a Kofi fan now. Becky's my favorite, but that show was all about him and his story. I thought Cole vs. Gargano was really overbooked. Good match, though.
