#NXTTakeOver: Chicago II Discussion Thread

Renee Dupree almost dieded

Can't even claim youngest tag champ in WWE history anymore since Nicholas

Was there a reason behind Dream's obvious nod to Hogan with the gear and all the mannerisms?

He forgave him.

So I watched this last night and the tag match and Dream/Ricochet were awesome. Couldn’t get into the woman’s title match. Not a fan of Lars but Black helped him have a good match outside of that obvious botch. Main event was amazing. Ciampa might be one of the few legit heels in the entire company.

My bigger complaint? How many times are we as fans told “the apron is the hardest part of the ring”? How many times has KO powerbombed someone on the apron and taken them out for weeks? Why where there like 3-4 apron spots throughout the entire show that really didn’t get sold?

Apron spots are in the in thing now for *****

I watched Dominion and almost every match had an apron spot.

Dream must come out to Hogan's theme remixed....Real African American

I was very disappointed in the lack of a hulk up in that match.

He did damn near everything else

Found this on Reddit

Just rewatched Velveteen Dream vs Ricochet and realized that the first 5-10 minutes is the same as the first 5-10 minutes of The Rock vs Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania X8. Not sure if anyone has pointed that out yet.

Thought that was pretty cool. The staredown into the test of strength to the shoves to the mat/taunts that followed were beat by beat the same as Rock-Hogan. Even the arm slaps that Velveteen Dream does to himself were the same.

Bruh if that's true I rewatched that match not too long ago and it sounds completely plausible. Has there ever been so many marks in the business at one time?

I bet most of the roster today would wrestle for free.
