This needs the Everybody Hates Chris ending song remixed with "Ryker" in it.

Imagine a Lucha House Party vs. Forgotten Sons feud and being forced to root for one of the groups. I want to cry just thinking about it.

Oh great, Vince will see this and decide he has to call up the Forgotten Sons so that can be our big Survivor Series feud. Good going

Man, and we thought The Wyatt Family vs. The Shield had a big fight feel!

I'm very torn honestly because I honestly love Johnny Gargano and am so happy he finally won the title and I think he deserves a good run with it, but dammit Adam Cole is THAT guy right now. He wins that title, he is going to OWN it. As great as Ciampa was as champion, I think Cole might be even better.

For all the things I love about NXT, that show opening intro video ain't one of them.

It's one of those matches where I'm cool with either guy winning. I was on Team Cole for the Takeover: New York match, however.

That Jack Gallagher/Kassius Ohno match was all kinds of great. I love Gallagher's style so much, and I think Ohno has meshed with it the best I've seen in the WWE.

I'd love to see them get an added 5-10 minutes at a Takeover

If the news about Johnny being injured is true, I wouldn’t be against Cole winning here to give Johnny a rest.

[King Devitt]

Man, I needed like 10 more minutes of KUSHIDA vs. Gulak.
That was a treat to watch. Why that isn't a match at Takeover this weekend is beyond me.

I'd much rather see a rematch between those two than Riddle vs. Strong.

Some more thoughts on the show:

And that Mia Yim vs. Bianca Belair feud is something I could get behind. Two badass women who are confident personalities? Yes please.
I hope they develop it more, and it gives women both something they can work with, and I think they work well together.

[Rumble McSkirmish]

Once again big props to WWE's video production team, those hype packages for Dream Vs Breeze and Gargano Vs Cole were simply marvelous.
