Shotzi is the next one in for the babyfaces.
NXT TAKEOVER WAR GAMES CODE
We get some more dull stuff and Kai gets a Code Red out of the corner as the first period ends. They exchange kicks in the corner and Ember gets a senton, but Kai chokes her out against the cage to take control. Shotzi Blackheart, Rhea Ripley, Io Shirai and Ember Moonĭakota starts for the heels against Ember for the 5:00 opening and goes for a sleeper right away, but Ember throws her to escape that. Wargames #1: Toni Storm, Dakota Kai, Raquel Gonzalez and Candice LeRae v. Pretty cool of them to use “War Pigs” for the theme.
Your hosts are Vic Joseph, Wade Barrett & Beth Phoenix. Live from the Capitol Wrestling Center in Orlando All the tools then come into play and chaos ensues.The SmarK Rant for NXT Takeover Wargames 2020 – 12.06.20 The babyfaces then ran wild, Io hits a moonsault on Raquel, but the pin is broken up by the heels.
None of the announcers called the sledgehammer a sledgehammer, I wonder why. The sledgehammer was then used as a normal weapon, Triple H would not be happy. Then Io got on top of the cage, put the trash can on her head, and jumped onto everyone. The babyfaces got decimated with kendo sticks and Wade Barret admired the heels, and rightly so. Indi locked the door and put the key in her shirt. A trash can and a chair were then brought into the ring. Indi Hartwell then attacks Io from behind. Ripley and Raquel brawl while Io lies outside like an idiot while Candice comes out. She tried to climb the cage but got dropped by Kai. That’s the NXT Women’s champion she’s not even in the math yet. Io then got chairs into the ring and kicked Raquel in the face while she was holding a chair, but then got booted out again. Io slammed a kendo stick onto Raquel’s fingers but then got the cage door booted in her face by Raquel. She got a ladder in the ring while Raquel closed the door. Io Shirai entered the match, by entered I mean exited her cage because she didn’t actually enter the ring. There was a nice double tower of doom spot. The heels beat up the faces even though they didn’t have an advantage, it’s 3 on 3. She brought kendo sticks into the ring, exposed multiple turnbuckles, and sent Ripley spine-first into the exposed turnbuckle. Toni Storm was in next and the boos rain down. Then, Ripley and Raquel started brawling. Shotzi hit Raquel with a Code Red, Ripley got a damn sledgehammer from the toolbox and hit Kai with it, then tied her up and smashed her into the cage for a nasty looking bump. Ripley and Raquel stared daggers into each other. Kai then hit a top-rope double lariat onto both women with the assist from Raquel. Raquel destroyed both of them, lifted Kai on her shoulders, and hit Ember and Shotzi with her feet. Ember and Shotzi sized her up like hyenas ganging up on a lioness. If I didn’t know the storyline, I would’ve thought Kai was the babyface.
Kudos to NXT for not keeping things repetitive, but these matches always work better when the heels have the advantage. She beat up Kai, but Kai made a comeback and fought off both women, and therein lies the main problem of the whole match. Shotzi Blackheart was next and she brought a toolbox and a crowbar with her. A kip-up spot was botched, and Kai ground Moon’s face into the cage. The tank even shot a kind of missile at Dakota Kai, who was already in the ring.ĭakota Kai and Ember Moon start the match for their respective teams.Įmber looked really athletic, she did a unique front flip into a forearm spot to Kai. She was the team captain to be fair, and it was a cool entrance. I guess the tank means more than the title. Shotzi entered on a much better and modified tank than the one Candice crushed, she even entered after Io Shirai, the champion. The show opened with the Women’s WarGames match, it was the logical choice as the Men’s match is predictably going to main event, and you’d want to keep the two WarGames matches as far apart as possible. Result: Team Candice wins as Racquel Gonzalez pinned Io Shirai. Team Candice (Candice LeRae, Toni Storm, Raquel Gonzalez, and Dakota Kai) Team Shotzi (Shotzi Blackheart, Ember Moon, Rhea Ripley, and Io Shirai) vs. The promo packages, as usual, were very well done and created hype for the show.īut how good was TakeOver WarGames 2020? Let’s get into it. First of all, I’d just like to say that I’m so jealous of the NXT roster because I didn’t get to make mean and brooding faces at the camera while War Pigs by Black Sabbath plays in the background, that song alone makes the pre-show worth watching.
