Takeover Brooklyn 4 preview

Read on for my ideas for booking tonight's NXT brand WWE Network special event.
- Shayna vs. Kairi:
It's pretty much a given we're in for Kairi vs. Shirai down the line. That could be a title match at either Rumble weekend or WM35 weekend (or both, of course). While I'm skeptical about that direction, being unfamiliar with their Japanese work, it's a pretty ready-made important feud. I'll save Kairi's coronation for Evolution, though, where they can start Shayna's road to moving up to Raw or Smackdown Live. They could even pencil in Shayna vs. Ronda at WM35 itself. Kairi goes for the InSane Elbow, Shayna throws the ref into the ropes, and we have ourselves a DQ. Kairi puts Shayna in The Anchor after the match to set up their rematch.

- Dream vs. EC3:
I love Velveteen, but I think EC3 needs the momentum more. The former Impact World Champion gets the win.

- KOR/Strong vs. MM:
The War Raiders vs. O'Reilly and Strong is the direction to go next. If they want to split up MM for them to feud in NXT UK, that's an angle they can start here.

- Cole vs. Ricochet:
Ricochet with the surprise win. Cole, Kyle, and Strong against Ricochet and the Raiders inside WarGames for all the gold!

- Last Man Standing:
Way too soon to take the title off Ciampa. He retains here. Ciampa vs. EC3 next works for me.

More wrestling coming up.
