NXT TV Taping Results
August 19, 2017 – To Air August 23, 2017
Brooklyn, NY – Barclays Center
This TV taping took place before NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III and will air this Wednesday on WWE Network.
Segment: No Way Jose and Lars Sullivan
No Way Jose’s music hit and he came out and started a conga line with the crowd, but Lars Sullivan suddenly came out and attacked him from behind while he was dancing on the entrance ramp. Sullivan then destroyed him in the ring and got a lot of heel heat from the crowd.
Peyton Royce (w/ Billie Kay) defeated Sarah Logan
Peyton Royce and Billie Kay were very over with the crowd. Peyton won with a bridging fisherman suplex.
Wolfgang and Pete Dunne defeated Tyler Bate and Trent Seven
The crowd gave huge pops to Bate and Dunne. This was a very good match and was sort of a “light” version of the incredible match between Dunne and Bate at the last TakeOver. They did a lot of the same big spots, including Bate doing the helicopter spin on Dunne. Bate took out Dunne and went for a pin on him, but didn’t realize Dunne had just tagged in Wolfgang, who was the legal man. Wolfgang then hit a swanton bomb off the top rope onto Bate for the win.
