NXT TAKEOVER: In Your House (June 7, 2020)

[RIPPA]

Official Matches

Tommaso Ciampa vs. Karrion Kross

Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley vs Io Shirai - NXT Women's Championship

Challenges have been Made

Finn Balor vs. Damien Priest (Priest has challenged Balor)

Keith Lee vs Johnny Gargano (Lee has challenged Gargano)

Probable

Adam Cole vs. Velveteen Dream - NXT Championship

[The Natural]

I'd have preferred a match on NXT TV next week was saved for this instead. Lineup is doing little for me right now. I want rid of Adam Cole's NXT Championship reign. Matt Riddle's the NXT 2020 MVP and I'm not sure he'll make the show.

Rumors Riddle is done with NXT and his cage match with Thatcher will be his sendoff with him scheduled to debut on SmackDown on Friday.

[RIPPA]

Balor/Priest is official as it was announced during Priest's appearance on the Pat McAfee show today

[nofuture]

From Cole and Regal's face off, if Dream loses, he can't challenge Cole for the title again.   It also sounds like it's going to be in a different venue ala Gargano/Ciampa's last match.

Don't be surprised if they throw Imperium/1-2 title match on the card.

Or just his EGO.

Warning for folks - the Dream/Cole match was already taped (on May 28) so there is the possibility that spoilers will get out

[nofuture]

Good that they're getting more women onto the show.  The division is pretty stacked.

I swear I remember NXT had already ran a Backlot Brawl before....

[The Natural]

I won't be waking up to watch this live as I tend to NXT TakeOvers. Hope Adam Cole's NXT Championship run ends here, it needed to sooner by either Matt Riddle, Keith Lee or the Velveteen Dream. I'd have gone with Riddle.

Best member of the Undisputed Era? Roderick Strong.

Would have loved it if he had worn a Hawaiian shirt.

I caught up with NXT so I'm looking forward to the PPV.  Is there a reason why it's called 'In Your House' is it just nostalgia or something more than that? 

[AxB]

Atthe start of Covid lockdown, Black Label Pro were going to run an empty arena show in collaboration with PWTees called "In Our Warehouse", using the old IYH logo/font, and WWE's lawyers put a stop to it. So then the WWE thought that if they  were going to maintain and protect the copyright, they might as well use it.

I would think that this is Io moment to win the NXT women's title but seriously I would be stunned if Charlotte loses the belt this year.  The only hope is that Vince or Triple H thinks she needs another main roster title run 

[Godfrey]

My gut says Charlotte retains here and holds it until next Wrestlemania when Rhea beats her after winning the Rumble.

One day a Horsewoman is going to put over someone that's not another one of them.

 

Today is not that day.

[Niners Fan in CT]

Good show,  I liked the In Your House nostalgia bits.  

Keith Lee is the fucking man.  

Love Io Shirai winning the title finally!  

I had one major gripe with this show.  There should not be commentary on the backlot brawl.  That was a mistake.  I thought it severely took away the atmosphere they had going. 

[For Great Justice]

Main event was great.

Mens title match was an interesting take, filmed more in the Piper/Goldust style with the live commentary. But both guys felt like lame ducks until Kross squashes them in three months. Dream in particular needs a lot of help.
