Promo: Eric Young, with SanitY, proclaims that tonight on NXT is when their takeover will begin. They have an NXT Tag Team Championship match where they'll demonstrate just how dangerous they are when they turn out to be the ones to stop the unstoppable American Alpha, take their championships and make them disappear from NXT.

Furthermore, Nikki Cross is going to go one on one against the NXT Women's Champion Asuka at NXT TakeOver: San Antonio and she will add the NXT Women's Championship to SanitY's pile of gold!

Tonight on NXT: The 2016 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic winners, SanitY, will challenge American Alpha for the NXT Tag Team Championships. Many have tried and all have failed. Will SanitY make good on their promise to be the ones that take the NXT Tag Team Championships from the unstoppable Chad Gable and Jason Jordan?

Also tonight: “The King of Strong Style” Shinsuke Nakamura, the returning Kassius Ohno and “The Perfect 10” Tye Dillinger will compete in a Triple Threat Match where the winner will go on to NXT TakeOver: San Antonio to challenge the NXT Champion “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe!

Show Opener Promo

The NXT Champion Samoa Joe talks about how it is an indisputable fact that he is the best Superstar on NXT and it also an indisputable fact that he is the better competitor in the rivalry between Shinsuke Nakamura and himself. Coming hot off Japan, “The King of Strong Style” was all the rage and all the hype but Samoa Joe turned out to be the hype killer.

If Nakamura wins tonight then Joe would be more than glad to cement that fact next weekend at TakeOver: San Antonio.Joe laughs off Tye Dillinger as a credible threat and is also ready to personally roll out the red carpet for Kassius Ohno and give him a personalized welcome courtesy of the coquina clutch!
