The Superstars of NXT are in Brooklyn, New York, for NXT TakeOver: New York. This is the biggest stage and (at least for this year) the kickoff for WrestleMania weekend. I will be lieblogging the Hall of Fame tomorrow night and also WrestleMania on Sunday. However, first I will start with NXT TakeOver. From top to bottom, the card is stacked. I had already done my NXT TakeOver: New York predictions post if you want to look at it. From top to bottom, the card is stacked with a lot of hard-hitting action. The matches are as follows

  • NXT Tag Team Championship: War Raiders (Hanson & Rowe) defending against Ricochet & Aleister Black
  • NXT North American Championship: Velveteen Dream defending against Matt Riddle
  • NXT UK Championship: Pete Dunne defending against WALTER
  • NXT Women’s Championship: Shayna Baszler defending against Io Shirai, Bianca Belair, and Kairi Sane in a Fatal FourWay match
  • NXT Championship: Johnny Gargano v. Adam Cole in a best 2 out of 3 falls match for the vacant title

The action starts with the Kickoff Show at 6PM Eastern on the WWE Network, with the main card at 7PM. I will have highlights, observations, commentary, and even a little bit of snark on the liveblog below. Hopw you enjoy, and stay with me for WrestleMania weekend!
