NXT Takeover: Chicago Recap & Review
NXT bounces back from an average Takeover in April to put on a great show in Chicago!
NXT bounces back from an average Takeover in April to put on a great show in Chicago!
Tyler Bate puts his title on the line against Mark Andrews in a great match that highlights an entertaining show featuring some of the WWE UK stars and a few of the Cruiserweights.
The final stop before Takeover: Chicago didn’t have much in the way of new developments, but it was an okay show regardless.
It feels like we’ve seen this show before, but I still enjoyed seeing TJP face Austin Aries in this pretty good episode of 205 Live.
The last SmackDown before Backlash didn’t provide anything new, but it had a pretty good opening match and a fun new episode of Breezango’s “Fashion Files.”
The loss of Braun Strowman to injury has shaken things up for the better. This episode of RAW proves that with some interesting matchups and a fair amount of time being spent on smaller story lines.
Including the results of the fallout from the women’s battle royal last week, matches for all of NXT’s titles at Takeover: Chicago are determined in this episode, including a great number one contender match between Hideo Itami and Roderick Strong.
A very good show with a great balance of very entertaining matches and many significant storyline segments.
A big six-man tag match highlights a pretty good episode of SmackDown that also featured a special London edition of “Fashion Files” and a great promo from The Usos.
This episode seemed light on story, and the main event wasn’t as good as lat week’s, but a very nice Tag Team Turmoil match helped make this show a decent one.
Asuka makes a decision during a number one contender battle roayl that will affect her next title defense in a pretty good episode of NXT.
Rich Swann and Noam Dar finally meet in the ring to settle their issues, but after a very nice match, was anything really settled?
On his first night as a member of SmackDown, Jericho must defend his US Title in a rematch against Kevin Owens.
This show was good, but the main event made it great. Finn Balor, The Miz, and Seth Rollins faced off in a triple threat that stole the show and outclassed everything at Payback the night before.
Payback 2017 had a number of good matches, and one match that will go down in history as unwatchable (in my opinion).
Enzo & Cass face Gallows & Anderson, and The Miz welcomes Finn Balor to Miz TV in a pretty average, but fine, warmup to the Payback PPV.
Tyler Bate puts his UK title on the line against Jack Gallagher, and Ruby Riot can’t seem to get away from Nikki Cross in this very entertaining episode of NXT.
This episode was light on story, but the matches more than made up for that.
This was an okay show with some interesting moves from certain superstars.
This pretty good episode of RAW was about 50/50 for good and underwhelming segments.
