GDT: NXT TakeOver: War Games (17th November 2018)

[GKJ]

Ricochet/Dunne in a title-for-title looks to be the direction.

I do, desperately, want to see Adam Cole vs. Velveteen Dream somewhere.

I figured that might be something featured on the NXTUK brand (Dunne vs Ricochet) but I could also see Dunne replacing Cole in that projected match.

Adam Cole will have a match in some capacity. Maybe they do a 3-way match?

 

[GKJ]

They already did the 3-way

 

[Sheppy]

Sane vs. Baszler - 4 Stars
Gargano vs. Black - 5+ Stars
Dream vs. Ciampa - 5 Stars
War Games - 4.75 Stars

Hmmmmmmm

Cole might be relegated to manager duty then.

 

[The Gongshow]

Mama mia!!!! What a TakeOver!!

 

[ColePens]

Still can't get over this show. I have to remind myself how good this was jsut in case SS sucks tonight.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

Sane/Baszler - ***3/4
Gargano/Black - *****
Ciampa/Dream - ****3/4
War Games - ****1/2

TakeOvers are the only wrestling events I 100% watch.

RAW, SmackDowm, WWE PPV’s, I all only watch if I have time, and usually I just watch YT clips the next day/watch the PPV matches that interest me or get good reviews.

TakeOvers, are can’t miss. Anyone who likes wrestling should be watching them

NXT should just be a third brand at this point.

Vince can have as many steroid freaks and cheesy faces on the main roster as he wants, keep the actual wrestling to NXT.

NXT pretty much is a third brand.

NXT pretty much is a third brand.

As in a third brand with no promotion to the other shows. Bring back OVW or whatever for developmental, and have NXT as the actual wrestling brand.

 

[Serac]

It's actually ridiculous how we're at the point where literally every takeover has at the very least one 5 star match

 

[The Gongshow]

2018 has been ridiculous

Phili : Black vs Cole & Almas vs Gargano
NO: Ladder Match & Gargano vs Ciampa
Chicago II: Gargano vs Ciampa II
Brooklyn IV: UE vs Moustache Mounting, Ricochet vs Cole & Gargano vs Ciampa III
War Games

The Florida NXT circuit is already that.

How was this? Didn't know it was happening unfortunately.

Cole eventually needs to win the title and Dream should be the one that eventually takes it off him.

As in a third brand with no promotion to the other shows. Bring back OVW or whatever for developmental, and have NXT as the actual wrestling brand.

And send some of the wasted talent back.

 

[Jussi]

It was average.

Will you stop!

 

[Kimi]

wut

It was an average Takeover. It'd put it somewhere between an 8.9 and a 9.3 out of 10.

I fast forward mostly through raw and smackdown

I watch the wwe ppvs, but depending on what’s happening I may be more interested in my phone

Today’s takeover had me phone free

I suggest watching NXT weekly TV. Its only 1 hour so its a breeze to watch. Past few months you had great matches involving all those guys in the War Games match along with the Black attacker mystery. And if you have time and like NXT, then NXT UK is pretty good too.
