NXT Takeover: New Orleans; Predictions and Analysis of WWE's third brand's biggest show of the year.

NXT Takeover: New Orleans is the day before Wrestlemania 34; Can the 'C' brand outdo the grandest stage of them all?

Andrade "Cien" Almas vs Aleister Black--NXT Championship

Almas and Black have faced each other before, but this time it's for all the marbles.

An intriguing contest featuring brutal striking vs. technical skill and precision high flying, this match is indeed worthy of being the main event of Takeover.

Prediction: Black has seemed unstoppable, overcoming bigger names like Adam Cole and flashier personas like Velveteen Dream, and he's already beaten Almas once before. However, Almas makes for a compelling heel champion, and WWE is very high on him and Zelina Vega. Likely, Almas will win via some sort of cheat/distraction by Vega, and their feud will continue.

Analysis: Two of the most exciting wrestlers in the world will face off for NXT's grandest prize. Since they will have to compete against a no-DQ match AND a ladder match, expect both men to bring an absolutely stellar performance to bear in order to stand head and shoulders above the rest of the roster. If Black wins, Almas will likely be called up to the main roster. On the other hand, if Almas retains, expect both men to remain on the NXT brand to continue their feud.
