#5 NXT Takeover: San Antonio – Shinsuke Nakamura(c) vs Bobby Roode (NXT Championship)

From the hands of the King of Strong Style to the Glorious One

After The King of Strong Style defeated Samoa Joe to retain the NXT Championship, Bobby Roode would set his sights on Shinsuke Nakamura’s title.

The entrances and the crowd laid the foundation for both men to deliver a solid bout for NXT Takeover: San Antonio. The first half of the match was a back-and-forth effort, but the match shifted focus to Nakamura hurting his knee towards the end.

The big moments of the match were Nakamura countering a superplex with a Front Suplex from the top rope, Nakamura countering a powerbomb attempt with a sunset flip and a rolling knee strike, Roode using a single-legged Boston Crab to further injure Nakamura’s knee, and Roode hitting a second Glorious DDT to become the new NXT Champion.
