(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - You normally see the NXT fans really hyped at the show at some point.  When it is a Take Over NXT, the fans are normally really amped up.  When it is showing live, you know the NXT Universe gave energy and flavor!  This show was exclusively shown on the WWE Network and was worth your time, energy and effort to see it. 5 matches and 4 of the matches were almost great matches.  4 of those matches were good moments matches.  1 match came up on the a high energy, average match.
