Welcome to PWInsider.com’s live coverage of NXT Takeover: In Your House from the Capitol Wrestling Centre in Orlando, Florida. Make sure to follow all of the coverage for Takeover, including news, blogs, preview and post show audios, as well as this report.
We are at the Capitol Wrestling Centre and your host is Sam Roberts. Sam is joined by Arash Markazi and Justin Barrasso.
Sam asks Justin what does it feel to be in front of the In Your House set. Justin says he is excited to be here tonight.
They run through the card for tonight's show.
We see Ted DiBiase's limo arriving at the building earlier today.
We have a video package for the Million Dollar Championship.
Sam mentions how the Million Dollar Title made Virgil a star. He asks Justin if he can believe we have this title on the line tonight. Justin says it will be a game changing match. Sam asks who does the title help more. Justin says it is LA Knight's night. Sam agrees that LA Knight will win tonight.
We see Kyle O'Reilly arriving at the building only to be confronted by The Way. Kyle and Austin Theory have a little pushing session before security patrolling the Most Dangerous Parking Lot in Sports Entertainment.
We take a look at the Women's Championship Match.
Sam mentions the press conference and how confident Ember Moon was. Justin mentions how Ember came back from a severe injury. Sam asks if Ember can hit Eclipse on Raquel and Justin says he doesn't know if it is possible to hit Eclipse on Raquel. Justin says Raquel has found her way to become a star and she will exert her will against Ember Moon.
Justin says his heart is going with Ember but his head is going with Raquel. Sam is going with Justin's head.
We go to Arash with MSK and Bronson Reed. He asks why agree to this match. Bronson says he feels more confident than ever since he won the title and he does not think he can lose with MSK.
Wes says they know that Legado Del Fanatasma are tough and they have lost to them before in a six man tag match but they will be ready. Bronson says that Santos should have stayed in the Cruiserweight Division.
Bronson is asked what does it mean to walk into Takeover as the champion. He says it means it is a big deal to be the champion for the people he represents.
Arash joins Sam and Justin at ringside and Sam asks if MSK and Bronson have the cohesion to win tonight. Arash says they want this to last for a long time. Sam asks Justin about Bronson Reed.
We take a look at Arash with Legado Del Fantasma. He asks them about being a team for a year facing a new team. Santos says they have been with him since he won the Cruiserweight Title. They have become the most dominant faction. They should have won the tag titles a few weeks ago, but Bronson Reed had to make a cameo. We fooled them into this match. They are not a team while we are familia. Mendoza says tonight is a huge night. They flip two divisions upside down in one match. Wilde says the logo says In Your House and Bronson Reed and MSK will be in their house. They will embarrass MSK again. They will look good with all of the gold around their waist. Escobar says Sunday, traditiion, familia, legado is what they stand for. In Your House is the appropriate place to cement their legado.
Sam asks if this is the most unified faction in NXT. Arash says they are a family. Justin says this will be a breakout moment for Legado Del Fantasma. Sam says that he thinks Legado del Fantasmo wins. Arash and Justin are picking the champions to retain.
We take a look at Xia Li versus Mercedes Martinez.
Arash says that Xia Li has been waiting for four years to get here. Justin says to be someone in NXT, you have to go through Mercedes Martinez.
We take a look at the Men's Championship Match.
Sam says all of them are possible NXT Champions. Kyle has tasted it but will tonight be the night. Arash says tonight could be the night for Kyle, but no one talks about Pete Dunne. Pete is the one we should be talking about. Justin says it won't be Pete Dunne's night. Kyle's transition to singles wrestling has been similar to Shawn Michaels and he will be a champion some day. Justin says Pete will be a champion but not tonight. Sam mentions that Johnny Gargano wants to make up for his first title reign. Justin says that Johnny is the favorite tonight. Arash says that people have forgotten about the greatness of Johnny Gargano and if he wins tonight, people cannot forget. Sam brings up Adam Cole and how he is the face of NXT.
Arash says that Adam is a marked man. Sam says that nobody can take Adam Cole down. Justin says that Adam has always been dangerous and now that he is alone we don't know how dangerous he can be. Sam talks about Kross picking four challengers and having no advantage. Justin picks Johnny Gargano. Arash and Sam pick Adam Cole.
