The past two Takeover events have run over the scheduled time by a good bit. The advantages of having your own network.

edit: I assume it's only scheduled 2 hours as every other has been. Don't have network

Itami/Roode going on.

Roode kicked out of GTS (rolled out of the ring, first). He hit two Glorious DDTs to win.

Only caught the very end. Nice finish, but I have no idea how much I missed.

"It's that Kobayashi style by Hideo" - Not Nigel, idk who but lol at that. I think they meant Kobashi because Kobayashi is actually Hideo's last name. He went by just KENTA in his career because he didn't want to be confused with Kenta Kobashi.

"ok guys, so here's what we're going to do. We're going to have both of you kickout of each others finishers but we want the finishers to still seem strong."
"but why not just save the GTS for another day?"
"well we don't know how to book matches without finisher kickouts so we're going with this. get the **** out."

Is this how the booking for Itami/Roode came to be?

Unfortunately Vince just saw that "Authors of Poop" sign in the crowd and has quickly written a segment for when AOP get called up.

That ladder shot to Gargano's face looked stiff as hell.

Yes it did. Really seemed like he should have sold it as being fully KTFO for a couple of minutes.

this has been subtly teased for a long time. was kind of hoping it wouldnt happen cause i like them so much, but i think gargano can be an incredible singles face and from all accounts of champa's pre wwe work hes an awesome heel. excited to see where it goes

More shocking than Goldust's turn!

Actually missed it live. Went to the other room after the match was over. Came back and saw Gargano lying in a broken table.

Solid PPV, like JH said, sad to see the DIY breakup, but excited to see where this feud may go

I wish I could find that screenshot of one of their losses to revival where champa and gargano were walking up the ramp after and champa was thousand yard staring gargano from behind before shaking his head and embracing him.

Yeah I don't follow the weekly product, if it's been foreshadowed then that's better, having just watched Takeovers my initial reaction was not to like it at all (both because the team is awesome and because it didn't seem to make sense to me). But, hopefully it turns out well.
