Can someone suggest one to me that isn't a War Games event? I don't care how old it is, I'm looking for a good event from front to back

R Evolution 2014 - Zayn Vs Neville
Dallas 2016 - Zayn Vs Nakamura
The later not quite the whole card, three strong title matches but has an Aries Vs Corbin match you'll probably want to skip. That's a recurring issue, many cards have at least one questionable match (damn Velveteen Dream).

Takeover Philadelphia and Takeover New Orleans, both from 2018. Two of my favourites.

Brooklyn is my favorite Takeover event
Sasha vs Bayley is unreal, plus you have Liger’s only WWE appearance (with a great Tyler Breeze entrance)

I honestly can't see me changing my mind on this ever, but Takeover New Orleans is my favorite wrestling show of all time. Not just my favorite Takeover, but I'd take this show over any other. Top to bottom the show for me can't be beat.

Takeover New Orleans is NXT's X-Seven.

My personal favourite is Takeover Chicago 2017, specifically Bate Vs Dunne (DIY/AOP is pretty great too).

My personal favourite is Takeover Chicago 2017, specifically Bate Vs Dunne (DIY/AOP is pretty great too). Bate and Dunne was an absolute banger. I was so happy to see that live. Of course, the initial Ciampa turn on Gargano ended up being the beginning of the great things for both of them. I'll be honest... you can't go wrong with most of the Takeovers back in the day. They usually all delivered. |

That’s right. I made the trip from Houston to Brooklyn for that exact reason. Triple H trying to get total silence for the intro is still so funny to me cause people were just too excited 😂 |

New Orleans - Probably the best NXT show ever for me. When Andrade vs. Black is the third best match of the night, you know it's a special show.
New York - Has an all time great tag match between Black/Ricochet and War Raiders, Dunne vs. TAFKA WALTER, and Gargano vs. Cole 2 out of 3 Falls (I'm not as high on this as others, but the crowd was insane for it). Velveteen Dream vs. Riddle is also fantastic, if you're still able to go back and watch Dream matches.
The last one, 36, is also really good. Dragunov vs. WALTER II, enough said.

I'm extremely partial to NXT Philly. One of the best crowds in that entire run and Aleister Black/Adam Cole and Gargano/Andrade back to back is one of the best ways any show has ended.
Dallas is vastly underrated IMO. Balor/Joe, Zayn/Nakamura and Revival/Alpha Academy. Asuka/Bayley was really good too and started her epic run.

Brooklyn is my favorite Takeover event Sasha vs Bayley is unreal, plus you have Liger’s only WWE appearance (with a great Tyler Breeze entrance) And the tag-title victory is a great oft-forgotten super feel good moment. |

Unstoppable wasn't the greatest one, but you get:
The Mechanics (not even the Revival, yet) beat the Vaudvillains.
Blake & Murphy defeat Enzo & Big Cass.
And the night I became a Becky Lynch fan; coming in as 'Generic Rocker Chick #842', going down swinging to Sasha.
Fans start singing her theme and she's frickin' made.
