NXT wrapped up another incredible Takeover. As always, it's going to be hard for the main roster to top that with the Royal Rumble. Here's what went down to kick off the Rumble weekend!

The Undisputed Era (c) vs War Raiders

The War Raiders made an impressive entrance and when The Undisputed Era began before the bell even rang. The War Raiders stopped them on their tracks and attacked them before the match finally started.

The early going saw The War Raiders dominate. Hanson attempted a suicide dive but he missed and that was clearly a big mistake. Roderick Strong and Kyle O'Reilly began to isolate Rowe until he had an opportunity to tag Hanson in. The champions controlled the match despite this.

The deceptively agile Hanson made his way in and started to take out the champions. He would hit a running splash on both of them. He eventually got neutralized before both teams tagged each other. Roderick Strong would also show an impressive feat of strength as he suplexed Hanson.

O'Reilly splashed on Hanson but it wasn't enough. The crowd chanted "Fight Forever" and after their "High low" got kicked out of for the first time ever, Hanson used his agility to take them both down. Rowe had both of them up and they hit the fallout on O'Reilly to get the win.

Ricochet (c) vs Johnny Gargano - NXT North American Championship

The crowd chanted "both these guys" in appreciation of what they were about to witness. It didn't take them long to start firing all cylinders. Ricochet offered Johnny Gargano a hand, asking "which" Gargano we're going to see.

They slowed down a bit but work at a good pace, using more technical aspects of their game. Ricochet would land an incredible moonsault and got the crowd going. Ricochet had Gargano in Fireman's carry position but wasn't able to power him down. Gargano tried to hit a hurracanrana but Ricochet landed ON HIS FEET! Fans were stunned, with no idea how it happened.

Gargano made a seamless transition into the Gargano-escape but Ricochet manages to evade it. HE rolls out of the ring and Ricochet hit the most beautiful moonsault you'll ever see. Ricochet even hit the 450 splash but Gargano kicked out.

Gargano gets caught with a suicide dive but spikes Ricochet on the mat with a hurracanrana. Gargano removed the mat and was planning to spike Ricochet on exposed concrete. The referee threatened to DQ him, so he wisely chose to avoid it.

Gargano hit him with a suplex to the concrete then spiked him with a DDT in the ring to pin him.

Shayna Baszler (c) vs Bianca Belair - NXT Women's Championship

Bianca Belair got the advantage in the early going. Shayna Baszler would begin her onslaught and show the ruthlessness that she's displayed as champion before. Belair fought back and outpowered Baszler from the early going.

It was clear that Belair was the better athlete, but Baszler's experience helped her. She wasn't able to judge the distance. Her inexperience began to show as the referee got knocked down and Baszler couldn't get the pin.

The two other horsewomen Jessamyn Duke and Marina Shafir came in but Belair knocked them both down and slammed Duke onto Shafir. She missed a 450 splash and Baszler immediately locked in the Rear Naked Choke. Belair somehow fought back.

Despite this, it wasn't enough and she passed out, thus ending Belair's undefeated streak.
