– As heard below, WWE Music has released Tyler Bate’s “Inaugural” theme song. The inaugural WWE UK Champion dropped the strap to Pete Dunne at WWE NXT “Takeover: Chicago” last night in a match that many are calling match of the year contender.
– Coming out of last night’s “Takeover: Chicago” event at the Allstate Arena, NXT has two more Takeover events scheduled for this year – “Takeover: Brooklyn” on Saturday, August 19th from the Barclays Center during SummerSlam weekend and “Takeover: Houston” on Saturday, November 18th from the Toyota Center during Survivor Series weekend. We also know the first two Takeover events confirmed for 2018 – “Takeover: Philadelphia” on Saturday, January 27th from the Wells Fargo Center during Royal Rumble weekend and “Takeover: San Antonio” on Saturday, April 7th from the Smoothie King Center during WrestleMania 33 weekend.
– Triple H tweeted the following after Takeover and thanked Chicago for another successful special for the NXT brand:
#NXTTakeOver was a night of incredible highs and devastating lows… and you were all there for every minute.
Thank you, Chicago. #WeAreNXT— Triple H (@TripleH) May 21, 2017
Triple H also tweeted this backstage photo before the show, showing he and “Road Dogg” Brian James manning the ship:
