3) Ricochet vs Johnny Gargano
— NXT North American Championship
We have a big-time NXT North American Title match to look forward to. Johnny Gargano will challenge Ricochet for his belt.
This has match of the night written all over it. I can’t wait to see these two mix it up. I am sure that they are going to put on a classic.
As for the winner, I am going to say that Ricochet retains here. I think WWE is saving Gargano for an eventual NXT Title win, so I don’t have him winning the belt here.
Winner Prediction: Ricochet retains.
2) Shayna Baszler vs Bianca Belair
— NXT Women’s Championship
Shayna Baszler will be defending her NXT Women’s Championship against Bianca Belair.
I am glad that WWE is using Bianca in this spot. Give her a chance to prove herself on the big stage and impress fans who only watch Takeover events.
This is a tricky one as I think Baszler will be getting called up to the main roster soon. Still, I am not convinced that she will drop the belt to Bianca here.
I am going to say that Shayna retains. Just a gut feeling that I have.
Winner Prediction: Shayna Baszler retains.
