Killer Kross vs. Danny Burch
Burch comes out fast against Kross with a shotgun dropkick, Kross takes over quickly on the outside
Is Burch pulling a Regal/Goldberg here? He’s putting up a pretty good fight
Doomsday Saito always freaks me out
Kross chokes out Burch
2* for Burch, 1/2 * for Kross

Keith Lee comes out to wreck this fool.
He has literature of some sort, maybe he wants to install solar? No, it’s a contract.
Lee calls him a little bitch, cuz he didn’t want to earn his spot- he begged regal set up the match, gives the contract to Scarlett, Kross signs it. She slides it back to Lee, he goes down to pick it up. A grenade explodes in his face, scarring him for life. There’s blood and bits of face everywhere, it’s like that scene in the Batman movie where that guy had half his face acided off.
Lee is acting like he did the hot pepper challenge.
Drake Maverick vs. Killian Dain
There’s a LOT going on- the match, Keith Lee, and as soon as the ambulance pulls away, the UE pulled up in a Nissan Rogue or Murano, can’t really tell.
Drake rolls Dain in the ring looking to get a legit win here, he goes up top, elbow drop, RODERICK STRONG WITH JUMPING KNEE, they beat the crap out of both of them. TOTAL ELIMINATION, LAST SHOT to Dain.
Cole calls out Pat, says he’s in over his head.
KUSHIDA
On the triple threat; I know Grimes, whoever my mystery opponent is, I’ll survive, it’s time for Kushida to taste go.
Tyler Breeze vs. Santos Escobar
Breeze gets the upper hand, but LDF attack, he evades, but Escobar uses the distraction to hit his finish. He wins. Feels like Drake let LDF do kinda what they wanted there. Fandango comes out with a busted wing and a big stick. He goes down pretty quick, looks like a b. Swerve Scott is out, attacks Santos. **
Dakota Kai video- she says she did everything to get where she is by herself. She didn’t need friendos or insurance policies. She’s gonna win at TXXX, according to her.
Ridge says he’s gonna beat Gargano
Indi Hartwell vs. Mia Yim
Yim says from what she knows, Lee has no long term damage. She just made it there for her match.
Hartwell gets a submission on, Mia able to backpack stunner her way out, but Hartwell locks back on, remains in control- story is Mia is distracted, at one point Indi yells BAASK IN MY GLORY, so Mia loses it and comes alive- ground and pound, dropkick, neckbreaker, german, Mia taps her out with like an arm um, thing.

Balor video
I’m not one to politic. He mentions the demo, it doesn’t matter if you’re 18, 49, or living in a retirement home.
Reed getting prepared for his fight, Priest looks nervous, wringing his hands
Bronson Reed. vs Damien Priest
Priest can’t handle Reed’s power, Priest tries to counter with strikes
This fool tried to suplex Reed
Priest really is able to do nothing in this match, finally he hits a springboard somersault senton, he takes control, finally able to broken arrow reed; tries again, reed counters with a suplex
Priest goes for Reckoning, Reed counters with a double leg takedown/ jacknife cover win, Priest’s momentum continues
Io Shirai video package on Dakota Kai- she doesn’t see Kai as a threat, just the cute girl who was scared of Shayna Bazsler- you’re not in my head, you just pissed me off
Cameron Grimes video, he’s out at like a lake, or a pond- always at the right place, right time- talks shit about Kushida. He’s gonna take that NA title to the moon.
Kayden Carter/Kacy vs. Mercedes Martinez/Aliyah
Robert Stone Brand promo- he says the future it very bright- and it could include YOU KACY, you’re hanging with the wrong people, not the right people. YOu need to lose the loser. They kick his knee, Kacy comes out with a head scissors on Martinez, then isolate Aliyah.
Martinez in, takes over, tags in Aliyah
Martinez gets modified Air Raid Crash to Kacy Catanzaro, wins
Rhea Ripley hits the ring, attacks Mercedes, Aliyah attacks, Shotzi helps
Candice LeRae is at home telling her dog a fairy tale story- says Tegan needs to mind her own business. Gargano is on a lightbulb changing a lightbulb. She’s talking about the kingdom being doomed- he says their kingdom is fine. He says all the new guys are talented, but not as talented as him. There can’t be a Takeover without him. He has Ridge Holland next week. He says the next time he climbs a ladder, will be to fix NXT. He says goodnight to his Doc Hendrix framed photo.
Thatch as Thatch Can- ADAPTATION
He had the match won- single leg crab, but the man turned out of it- this time, I use my body, can walk around, lays down with it- if you want to do this, you need to learn to adapt!
Next week face to face Cole/McAfee
KUSHIDA vs. Grimes vs. Dream
Kushida hits tornado DDT from apron to floor on Dream
All three men down, dream clotheslines Grimes out, Dream double axe off top to the floor, DVD to Kushida, Grimes tries to throw Dream out and steal the pin, Dream grabs his legs, Grimes goes to top, KUSHIDA meets him, Kushida brings him down to the ground with the arm breaker, Dream comes in, he gets caught as well by Kushida with HBL, Dream escapes, gets him up, Kushida tries to lock in HBL, Grimes hits cave in on Kushida, pushes Dream Out of the ring, WINS!!!!! TO THE MOOOON!!!!!!
Wow they (kinda) jobbed Dream in his return…
Dream comes back in the ring, slaps Kushida, starts beating the shit out of him, he throws a huge fit.
