The stars of NXT delivered at TakeOver: Vengeance Day, using the show as a table setter for storylines with Finn Balor, Kushida, Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez, and MSK.
Kushida and Johnny Gargano stole the show with their 24-minute classic, adding so much prestige and meaning to the North American Championship. Gargano overcame the odds to find a way to retain the title, which will only sweeten the moment when Kushida finally emerges victorious and wins his first championship in NXT.
There were no title changes at TakeOver, though there were surprises.
