With just over one week remaining until Takeover, the NXT Superstars bring it at Full Sail

#1 Hideo Itami is vindicated

Itami’s time has finally arrived!

No one has experienced as much setback and disappointment as Hideo Itami. When he arrived in NXT, fans were excited at the thought of one of the greatest WWE signees in quite a while was going to be on WWE programming.

Since his debut, Itami has been plagued with injury after injury, all at the most inopportune time as well. Well, it now appears that Hideo is back to 100% and doing just fine.

The true vindication came tonight when Itami defeated Roderick Strong in the main event of NXT on the WWE Network. Not only was this a huge win for Itami and a statement that he is back and better than ever, but the win also puts Itami in the main event at NXT Takeover: Chicago, where he will challenge NXT Champion Bobby Roode for his title.
