This will be the better of the 2 cards.

I think Joe wins the title and Balor debuts on Raw after Mania.

Bayley retains. Not sure where she goes from here. Maybe Emma?

Baron Corbin beats Aries. They're really high on him and I enjoy his "Indy Killer" gimmick.

American Alpha beats The Mechanics.

And then we get to Nakamura. This will be the biggest reason for me to watch as I want to see if they keep his gimmick or what happens with him.

Agree with you except for Joe and Bayley; both lose and probably debut on Raw the next night.

I do check out NXT from time to time. Yea, its better than RAW sometimes but Peeps saying shit like "This will be the better of the 2 cards" is why I don't like wrestling fans anymore.

On a pure wrestling standpoint, I think Takeover will be better because the storylines are more developed. One thing that I liked about this week's NXT episode was the video package of Gable & Jordan, introducing their backstory to viewers; its one thing that the main roster has forgotten to focus on to introduce new stars. WM32 has the names, but the card is very undeveloped.

I looked at the card and matched up which matches mean more to me:

Reigns/HHH v Balor/Joe: Wash; seen Balor & Joe before, but the prospects of Reigns winning is not appealing
Bayley/Asuka v Charlotte/Sasha/Becky: I would say wash, but creative will screw up the triple threat
New Day/LON v American Alpha/Revival: NXT; both of their teams are very entertaining
AJ/Y2J v Zayn/Nakamura: Seen AJ/Y2J, but now Y2J is a true heel; exciting to see Nakamura in NXT- slight advantage to NXT

Shane v Taker doesn't compare to anyone else on NXT; its the main event and I expect to see plenty of bells and whistles.

It will be.

Simply because NXT is presented so much better than Raw. There are cohesive storylines that get you invested. It helps that it's only an hour a week vs. 5 hours.

The Namamura-Zayn match was the best wrestling match I've seen in a long time. Nothing on Sunday will top it.

Maybe these guys are technically good wrestlers and maybe they tall the talk, but the freaks of nature is what made it so interesting. The blood, the RAWness of it. When a guy caught a chair in the head, the chair caused some blood. I dont even know if guys bleed these days? Is it allowed?

I do know it is as popular as ever though, not in denial there. Would Andre the Giant be a megastar in the social media age?

Would the Hogan, Big John Stud, Bundy and Andre match be the shit?

Joe got cut in the main event.

They stopped the match twice to try and stop he bleeding.

Crowd started a "Let Joe Bleed" and a "Fuck PG" chant.

Wait ... on an NXT show they didn't want color, even hard way?

Abdullah is one of the worst people ever in the business, over and above his inability to actually work.

Also, that's Bruiser Brody, not Dick.

100% yes.

Although, I'm looking forward to see what Sami does in the ladder match...and see if the Bullet Club joins AJ...
