6) EC3 Will Defeat Velveteen Dream
EC3 will face off against Velveteen Dream at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn. This will be the first singles match for EC3 at a Takeover event. His only other Takeover match was the multi-person ladder match at NXT Takeover: New Orleans.
Since this is the first real showcase for EC3 in NXT, my gut says that he is going to pick up the win. I would be pretty surprised to see EC3 lose in his first singles Takeover match.
I love Velveteen Dream, but I just don’t see him winning this one.
5) Kairi Sane Will Win The NXT Women’s Championship
Shayna Baszler will be defending her NXT Women’s Championship against Kairi Sane. These two have a history with one another. Kairi defeated Shayna last year in the finals to win the Mae Young Classic. Shayna put Kairi to sleep in a match on NXT several months ago.
I have gone back and forth on this one because I could really see either of them winning here. I think Kairi will be the next Champion, the only question that I have is if it will happen in Brooklyn or at the Evolution PPV.
My gut says that Kairi will be winning the Title in Brooklyn. Shayna will get her rematch at Evolution.
4) Shayna Baszler Gets Called Up (Soon)
With the success that Ronda Rousey is having on the WWE main roster, I really feel as if WWE is going to call up Shayna Baszler pretty soon to align with her.
If WWE wants to build to the inevitable Four Horsewomen vs Four Horsewomen match, they are going to have to introduce Shayna to the main roster audience. I feel as if Shayna has developed enough in NXT and I think they will work her up to the main roster over the next few months.
I see a call-up in Shayna’s future.
