The next instalment of NXT Takeover (entitled: Unstoppable) airs tonight on the WWE Network which means it'll be available elsewhere tomorrow morning.
The card is as follows:
* Kevin Owens defending the NXT Championship against Sami Zayn
* Sasha Banks defending the NXT Women's Championship against Becky Lynch
* Blake and Murphy defending the NXT Tag Team Championship against Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady
* Finn Bálor vs. Hideo Itami vs. Tyler Breeze in a triple threat match to determine the number one contender to the NXT Championship
* Triple H said that Itami will not wrestle at TakeOver due to injury, but he will still be "represented".
* Baron Corbin vs. Rhyno
* Bayley and Charlotte vs. Dana Brooke and Emma

Itami's replacement has some intrigue attached as some are speculating that a certain Samoan journeyman may have signed with the company. Personally, I think any speculation on this is incorrect as it has not been reported by any reputable source but we'll wait and see. I think Itami's replacement will most likely be the debuting Uhaa Nation as he and Regal had a short segment a couple of weeks ago on NXT.
The Kevin Owens/Sami Zayn match is hard to call as both have made appearances on the main roster recently. An Owens/Cena match is scheduled for Elimination Chamber which strongly suggests Owens is being brought up but I don't see any merit in putting the NXT belt back onto Sami Zayn unless, of course, the front office think he's not ready for the main roster and needs to spend more time in developmental (which, in view, he doesn't).
I think Sasha Banks will be brought up soon (along with Charlotte), so I can see the NXT Woman's title changing hands here.
Any thoughts?
