Baszler starts talking about Nikki Cross when Cross interrupts and heads to the ring. The two women face off, and Baszler reminds Cross that she is the champ. Cross barely moves, and Baszler wonders if she&#8217;s crazy. Baszler throws the mic at Cross, and Cross dares Baszler to put her to sleep. She begs Baszler to do it. Cross then steps toward Baszer which causes Baszler to flinch and drop her title belt. A brawl breaks out in which Cross eventually gets the better of Baszler.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 1<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>TM61 vs Mike Hugely &amp; Robbie Graham<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: DA Brewer)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e7524ee129f','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e7524ee129f\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e7524ee129f\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Shane Thorne pins Robbie Graham after a forearm to the back of the head<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 2:16<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nSquash, but I still like the new attitude of TM61.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Nick Miller says that TM61 has proven that they&#8217;re the best team in NXT.

This was about as hard hitting as you would expect from these two, and it was highly energetic. Of course there were some shenanigans when Lorcan, Dunne, Cole, and O&#8217;Reilly all got involved at ringside, but that was kind of expected.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Pete Dunne attacks Roderick Strong, but Kyle O&#8217;Reilly helps Strong avoid much damage.

I think this feud has been good for both women, and I think it&#8217;s been really good for Kairi. Kairi showed that she can overcome and persevere, and she showed that she can fight angry and win. This feud felt more involved than anything Kairi has done in NXT so far. Really, it felt that way for both women. That&#8217;s a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nTommaso Ciampa heads to the ring. Ciampa is disgusted by the crowd. He also talks about how Johnny Gargano nearly crippled Candice LeRae, which, of course, was due to no fault of Ciampa. Ciamps then promises that the Gargano fairy tale will come to an end at Takeover. Ciampa puts Gargano in the Gargano Escape, thus ending the fight.<\/p>\n<p>But not really. Gargano recovers before the show ends and attacks Ciampa again, busting Ciampa open on the stage. Gargano puts a bloodied Ciampa in the Gargano Escape as the show ends.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was a good show. I like the building ferociousness in Gargano, I like the energy building between the Undisputed Era and their opponents, and I liked the rubber match between Sane and Evans.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Kairi Sane vs Lacey Evans<\/strong><br \/>\nThis was a good finish for their feud.
