WWE NXT: Spoilers for August and September

Follow along with our live spoilers of WWE NXT for shows from August to September.

On Thursday night, the latest WWE NXT taping will take place. This should feature fallout from NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II, which saw one Superstar say goodbye, and other win the top title.

The main event of TakeOver saw Shinsuke Nakamura defeat Samoa Joe for the NXT Championship. This had been a hard-fought battle, but The King of Strong Style would walk out victorious with his first title win for the brand.

Nakamura will be at the taping and will be part of August 31’s show. He’ll speak about TakeOver, his title win, Samoa Joe, and more. NXT announced this on Wednesday’s episode. What could be said? Might a new challenger step up for the championship?

Asuka retained the NXT Women’s Championship over Bayley at TakeOver. It seems the latter is finished with NXT, as she debuted on the post-SummerSlam episode of WWE Raw. Someone new could step up for the belt on Wednesday. However, since another TakeOver event likely isn’t taking place for a few months, it’s possible this isn’t answered.

However, the newest member of NXT women’s division could show up. Ember Moon debuted at TakeOver and defeated Billie Kay. This showing might push the former Athena straight to the top, as there aren’t other established challengers. Besides Bayley, Alexa Bliss, Carmella, and Nia Jax have been called up, leaving the women’s division scarce. Could someone new be made into a legitimate threat toward The Empress of Tomorrow?

The NXT tag team division will be something to monitor as well. After retaining the NXT Tag Team Championships over Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa, The Revival are left without challengers. This could have been TM-61, but they lost to The Authors of Pain on the recent episode of NXT. Does that mean Akam and Rezer are next in line?  What could this indicate for the newly-minted DIY team after their TakeOver loss?

Please note there is a possibility that these matches are being taped out of order.

• Daria Berenato defeated Billie Kay with a muay thai knee into a triangle chokehold for the win. This was the dark match.

• Tye Dillinger vs. Buddy Murphy is opening the taping. Dillinger wins via the Ty Breaker. Murphy had been in control most of the match, but Dillinger came back for the win. The match was said to be sloppy in spots.

• Tommaso Ciampa cuts a promo backstage about Johnny Gargano. The Revival quickly interrupted. Ciampa tried fighting, but got beaten down. This spilled into the arena and The Revival continued the beatdown.
• The Revival cut a promo about giving Ciampa a reality check and about being top guys. Ciampa went back into the ring and into Scott Dawson’s face. The promo would end and Dash and Dawson hit Shatter Machine. Ciampa took a while to leave the ring after the beatdown, and was helped back by three referees.

• No Way Jose defeated Angelo Dawkinsin a quick match.

This may end the first episode.

• Samoa Joe is out for a promo. Joe says he was a disgrace as champion and did it all because he wants to be the best. He asked Shinsuke Nakamura to come to the ring, who obliged.

• After agreeing to do a rematch and shaking hands, Joe attacked Nakamura from behind. Joe threw Nakamura into and hit a side slam on the steps. The referee threw up the “X” and a stretcher came out. William Regal and Corey Graves came down to check on the situation. It’s a work.
