Pretty good show as usual from Takeover
One of the better ladder match clusterfukks in a while, a much improved rematch with Shayna/Ember and Ember's false reign finally ends, tag match was kind of messy at times and Strong's turn made no sense (Mauro screaming about how Strong wanted more than anything to win a title in NXT, and then he turns on his partner one second away from winning a title
) but it was fine. Black/Almas definitely wasn't as good as Gargano/Almas, and I think Almas still needs a little more time to cook before getting called up and doing nothing for a year. Ciampa/Gargano was

This neckbeard crowd was SPENT after 2hrs30 min of NXT. By the time Roman and Brock step up in the ring the crowd may not even bother booing. I want that match to be piff so bad but the odds are against it

I'm sure it will be good if it's anything like their 31 match, which was basically Brock just beating the dog shyt out of Roman for 10 minutes. Crowd in the giant stadiums can always be off sound wise anyway even when they're super hot.

What went on up there? Poppers and weird sex!
The unbelievably exciting mixed tag match involving a non-wrestler, a former MMA star that hasn't proven herself yet, a GM that can't even stand up straight, and a mark for himself that puts more effort into his "look at me" entrances than his mediocre matches.

Oh I have no doubt the action itself is gonna be good, but for the match to click it needs a proper atmosphere and I'm not sure tomorrow will be able to have something close to what Mania 31 had.
I'm watching this ladder match right now. Velveteen Dream & Ricochet could've got seriously hurt bad with that ladder bridge/rolling death valley driver spot 
Those two have the potential to have an amazing feud/match in the future though. Just don't do any more stuff like that

Gargano ciampa was outshined by the Briscoe match tonight imo
His match will be trash.
