WWE NXT

-Commentators:  Rich Brennan, Byron Saxton, & Corey Graves.
-Baron Corbin d. Solomon Crowe after catching him in mid-air with the End Of Days(mid-air Flatliner) (2:08).  Rhyno came out to get an answer to his challenge for Takeover...that led to an impromptu brawl until security guards attempted to restore order.  Rhyno Gored a few security guards as Corbin was backed out of the ring.
-Byron did a sitdown interview with Finn Bálor about his top-contenders' match at Takeover.
-Byron also did a sitdown interview with Tyler Breeze about the contenders' match.
-NXT Women's Champion "The Boss" Sasha Banks d. K.C. Cassidy(non-title) with the backcracker followed by the Bank Statement(modified Crippler Crossface) (2:22).
-Backstage:  Devin Taylor interviewed Charlotte Flair and Bayley Rose; Charlotte addressed Dana Brooke's comments from last week, while Bayley talked about how she would deal with Emma Tayla.  Maybe both issues will be settled at Takeover?
-Coming soon:  The Artist Formerly Known As Uhaa Nation.
-Alexa Bliss d. Carmella Van Damme; NXT Tag Team Champions Wesley Blake & Buddy Murphy came out to root for Carmella, but they distracted her when she went for her push-up headscissors submission hold.  That allowed Alexa to take Carmella down and win with the Sparkle Splash(twisting top-rope splash) (3:40).  Carmella wanted nothing to do with Blake & Murphy after the match...and she declared them S-A-W-F-T.
-Corey Graves did a sitdown interview with Hideo Itami about the contenders' match...he said he'd like to get his hands on Kevin Owens since he feels like Owens has no respect for the NXT Championship.
-Backstage:  Devin interviewed Emma & Dana, who accepted the tag match challenge for Takeover.
-Tyler Breeze & Adam Rose d. Hideo Itami & Finn Bálor after dissension on the Itami/Bálor team led to Breeze small-packaging Itami for the flash pin (8:17 aired).  Breeze shoved Itami into Bálor after the match, then took out Itami with the Supermodel Kick before leveling Bálor with the Beauty Shot(spinning heel kick).  Rose celebrated with Breeze...but Breeze took HIM out with the Supermodel Kick as well.
-Recently:  Sami Zayn challenged John Cena for the U.S. Title on Raw, but he injured his shoulder in the process...he's not sure about his status heading into Takeover.
-The show concluded with a face-to-face confrontation between Sami Zayn and NXT Champion Kevin Owens...Zayn wanted to know why Owens did what he did.  Zayn finally touched a nerve when he asked about Owens' son, saying he thought it was cute that he'd rather wear Zayn's merchandise than his father's.  Ooh.  Owens stepped out of the ring before giving his response...he said Zayn's words were all irrelevant and he knew the truth.  Zayn went home because he was hurt, he's still hurt, and he'll hurt him again at Takeover to make sure he won't come back.
