We will be getting another NXT Takeover coming on June 7th. It will be carrying on the legacy of the classic In Your House PPV’s, as the title is NXT Takeover: In Your House. It is just under a month away, giving us a pretty good idea of what matches we can expect to see at the event. Anything could happen, but these seem like the current matches we can expect to see.
Adam Cole vs. Dexter Lumis For The NXT Championship
Every NXT Takeover event needs a big main event, and this time it could include one of the most bizarre challengers yet. For weeks now, the creepy bastard himself has been getting involved in the business of Undisputed Era, even accidentally helping Adam Cole defeat Velveteen Dream when he would throw Roderick Strong into the referee. The Undisputed Era are going to take the fight to Lumis next week when Roderick Strong faces him in singles action. Lumis has star potential for the brand, and while he is unlikely to become NXT Champion, he will make for a good filler feud for Adam Cole.
Johnny Gargano vs. Keith Lee For The NXT North American Championship
With Johnny Garganos new atttitude, he is likely to go after one of the belts he held in the past, that being the NXT North American Championship. He recently defeated Dominic Dijakovic on an episode of NXT, the man who took Keith Lee to the limit many times now. This could very well just be the first step on the road to facing The Limitless One. Gargano took a verbal shot at him on this weeks NXT, planting seeds for a show stealing match that could go either way.
Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley vs. Io Shirai For The NXT Women’s Championship
Charlotte Flair has only been NXT Women’s Champion for a short time, and already has two of the toughest on the brand gunning for her. She had beaten Ripley for the title at Wrestlemania, and defended against Io when she used a kendo stick to force a DQ. Ripley & Shirai clash next week on NXT in a pseudo-number one contenders match, which is unlikely to end with a decesive finish, which would put them both on the path to a rematch with Charlotte. We could also see Candice LeRae weasel herself into this match.
Karrion Kross vs. Tomassao Ciampa
A few weeks back now, Karrion Kross would beat down a weakened Tomassao Ciampa who just got through war with Johnny Gargano. With Kross having now made his in ring debut when he demolished Leon Ruff, it is time to establish how strong he can actually be, when he faces a former champion on a big stage. It would be a chance for Kross to show how good he is in a big match, while helping to build up babyface credibility for Ciampa who would be likely to get mauled.
These are just a few matches that are being built on NXT TV at this time, another is Finn Balor vs. Damien Priest, which feels more like a TV main event. It isn’t clear what will happen with the NXT Tag Team Championships, now held by Imperium as the former champions are probably still fighting in Full Sail.
