NXT Takeover: Chicago Preview & Predictions

#4 New champion without Asuka being pinned?

Will Asuka’s streak be broken at NXT Takeover: Chicago?

This match is a lot more difficult to predict than the previous one was. Asuka has been a dominant champion, not losing a match since her NXT debut! Her record even puts Goldberg’s classic streak to shame.

NXT has done a great job by portraying her as someone who has grown complacent over time, and this match may be a way to get the title off her without making her look weak in the process. We predict that Nikki Cross will pin Ruby Riot and become the new NXT Women’s Champion.

Insane Vince McMahon ideas that got canceled - Watch Here!

Asuka eliminated both these women, and Ember Moon too, who is unfortunately not a part of this match because of a legitimate injury. Will Asuka’s overconfidence be her undoing, in this big match?

Prediction: Nikki Cross wins
