Ryker was supremely dominant in this match which is unusual when Oney Lorcan is in the ring with someone. Lorcan had one burst of offense late in the match, but his comeback was cut very short by the dominant Ryker. I suppose this is good for Ryker and doesn&#8217;t necessarily hurt Lorcan since he&#8217;s joining the 205 Live roster, but I wasn&#8217;t super into this match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at the upcoming NXT Title match at Takeover: New York.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at the rivalry between Velveteen Dream and Matt Riddle.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Outside the Venue<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nEarlier today, Keith Lee said that his rematch with Dijakovic was bumped from Takeover.

I was really enjoying this match even though I knew there wouldn&#8217;t be a definitive finish this close to Takeover. Sure enough, the match was cut short by Baszler and her friends. Before that though, Belair and Sane were having a very good fight. Belair started strong by using her power advantage, but Sane mounted a convincing comeback with non-stop offense in the middle of the match. Kairi&#8217;s experience seemed to be the deciding factor here tonight. That is, until Baszler decided she&#8217;d seen enough.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, a big brawl breaks out. Shayna Baszler, Marina Shafir, and Jessamyn Duke attack Belair and Sane. Io Shirai runs down to the ring and tries to help Kairi defend herself. The brawl continues as referees and women from the performance center run down to try to break up the fight.<\/p>\n<p>The brawl makes its way out to ringside. In the ring, Belair grabs Lacey Lane and throws her over the top rope and out onto the mass of people. Io Shirai enters the ring and knocks Belair out of the ring. Shirai climbs up to the top turnbuckle and lands a moonsault onto the group at ringside.<\/p>\n<p>Shirai then walks over and picks up the NXT Women&#8217;s Title which is laying in the corner of the ring. The show ends as Io Shirai stands alone in the ring clutching the NXT Women&#8217;s Title.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was a fine episode. I liked the main event match and the final segment. Other than that, it was kind of an uneventful episode. It&#8217;s fine though, they didn&#8217;t need to do anything else to hype Takeover. I like that they&#8217;ve already set matches for the next two weeks on NXT though, and they&#8217;re both matches I really want to see.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Kairi Sane vs Bianca Belair<\/strong><br \/>\nIf this hadn&#8217;t been just prior to a title match that they&#8217;re both in, this could have been great. As it stands (with a non-finish), it was very good.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800080;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Official Results:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwenxt\/2019-04-03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/shows\/wwenxt\/2019-04-03<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kairi Sane and Bianca Belair battle in the main event to build some momentum in the final NXT before Takeover: New York.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4918,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[255,297,622],"tags":[2446,2067,751,1882,213,1264,1660,748,1146,678,539,549,2447,1478,2108,671,644,2099,1815,1929,2139,1759,1333,1149,971,2125,737,2173,638,567,928,1130,1259,645,831,1958,1133,1656,1927,909,1477,7],"class_list":["post-4917","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nxt","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-adam-priest","tag-adrian-jaoude","tag-aliyah","tag-bianca-belair","tag-candice-lerae","tag-cezar-bononi","tag-da-brewer","tag-danny-burch","tag-darryl-sharma","tag-deonna-purrazzo","tag-drake-wuertz","tag-eddie-orengo","tag-flex-simmons","tag-florida","tag-forgotten-sons","tag-full-sail-university","tag-hanson","tag-jaxson-ryker","tag-jessie-elaban","tag-jessika-carr","tag-kacy-catanzaro","tag-kairi-sane","tag-karen-q","tag-kayla-braxton","tag-keith-lee","tag-lacey-lane","tag-mauro-ranallo","tag-mia-yim","tag-nigel-mcguinness","tag-nxt","tag-oney-lorcan","tag-percy-watson","tag-rachael-evers","tag-rowe","tag-steve-cutler","tag-taynara-conti","tag-tom-castor","tag-vanessa-borne","tag-war-raiders","tag-wesley-blake","tag-winter-park-fl","tag-wwe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4917","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4917"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4917\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4919,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4917\/revisions\/4919"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4917"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4917"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4917"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
