-Commentators:  Mauro Ranallo, Nigel McGuinness, & "Showtime" Percy Watson.
-WWE Chief Operating Officer Triple H paid a visit to NXT with the championship belt in tow...he was planning to announce that Tommaso Ciampa would defend the title against Johnny Gargano at NXT Takeover New York, but Ciampa is out of action with a serious neck injury.  As a result, Gargano would compete for the vacant title at Takeover in a best-of-three-falls match...his opponent would be determined in a five-way match later in the show.
-Adam Cole won a non-title five-way match with NXT North American Champion "The Velveteen Dream" Patrick Clark, Aleister Black, "The Original Bro" Matt Riddle, and Ricochet to advance to Takeover New York.  Ricochet hit the shooting star press on Riddle, but Cole took out Ricochet with the Last Shot v2.0(Shining Wizard to the back of the head) and pinned Ricochet for the win (14:45).
-Next week:  Aleister Black & Ricochet vs. The Forgotten Sons(Wesley Blake & Steve Cutler) in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Tournament final; the winners will challenge The War Raiders(Todd Hanson & Raymond Rowe) for the NXT Tag Team Titles at Takeover.
