Roode is a lock to show up on RAW or Smackdown just on the fact that they immediately put Drew in a new Feud for the title with Cole. AOP I'm sure will be up shortly as well, but I'm not 100% on whether or not it's immediately. Because O'Reilly and Fish did beat their asses too not just Sanitys. So perhaps they'll be held for 1 more takeover

not keen on Roode being that high up the card, he's good but not that good. After all he had the weakest match last night (even if said match was still a 4 star match).

That will probably be wrapped up in the TV tapings, though.

Honestly, I hope they start calling guys up and having the new champ just move on rather than having another Takeover match where the former champ loses again. It will keep the stories fresher and will prevent the NXT issue in the past where some feuds last way too damn long. You don't need a rematch clause in NXT.

Damn good show. Really wish Ember would've won the title.

Im just guessing that they might be skipping that one considering they immediately put Drew into a feud with Adam Cole

Could be a blessing in disguise. Can easily take the title off her now and use the Mae Young Classic to determine a new champion.

Can have her return and win the Women's Royal Rumble.

Brutal. All that momentum, now just sitting on the sidelines.

If its a 6-8 week injury like they're saying, it doesn't mean much. She'll miss like one round of tapings and should be fine for the next Takeover, assuming that's during Survivor Series weekend again.

If she has to miss extended time, they could do a Battle Royal to determine a #1 contender and put that winner against the Mae Young Tournament winner for the NXT Women's Championship. Then just bump Asuka (when healthy) up to the main roster with her streak still intact.

Yup. She can still appear on TV once or twice in backstage segments and they can build up to a new number one contender for the next Takeover.

Or they can use it as an excuse to strip her of the title so she moves up to the main roster still undefeated.

Either way, as far as I know NXT champs don't have to defend every thirty days anyway. They certainly don't as it is.
