Another great show. It seems each round keeps getting better.
NXT gives Summer Slam a run for its money with another great Takeover with some fantastic title matches.
The second round begins in fantastic fashion as Gran Metalik looks to take down the veteran Tajiri, and tournament favorite Kota Ibushi has his work cut out for him with Cedric Alexander.

A great start to what promises to be a unique and exciting series of shows for WWE.
