NXT s Karrion Kross Defeats Finn Balor and Retains Title in Epic Rematch
✖
Tonight s main event on NXT was the epic rematch between NXT Champion Karrion Kross and Finn Balor, and it did not disappoint. Last time around Balor pushed Kross to his limits, but ultimately fell to Kross and lost his NXT Championship in the process. Now it was time for Balor to get a chance at reclaiming what he lost, but Kross wasn t about to give it up without a fight. One of the best parts of the introduction was Balor sitting on the top rope during Kross and Scarlett s entrance, including all of the lights, music, and smoke, showing he wasn t distracted at all by the spectacle.

It’s time for the big fight night with a Takeover: Stand & Deliver rematch between NXT Champion Karrion Kross and Finn Balor. Kross took the title from Balor last month and it is time for Balor to get his rematch. This is being treated as the big dream rematch and hopefully they live up to the hype. Let’s get it.
The opening video looks at Kross vs. Balor and makes it feel like the biggest match in a pretty long time.
Shotzi Blackheart/Ember Moon vs. Raquel Gonzalez/Dakota Kai
Blackheart can’t roll Gonzalez up to start so it’s off to Moon, who can roll Gonzalez up for two. Kai comes in and sends Moon into the corner but Blackheart makes a blind tag. A running splash in the corner sets up the reverse Sling Blade to Kai and it’s back to Moon for two off the standing moonsault. Blackheart puts on a Texas Cloverleaf but Gonzalez breaks it up from behind, setting up some big elbows.

Get ready for another round of Roosevelt Row musical chairs: Restauranteur Julian Wright is bringing a trio of food and drink options to the monOrchid building, a place where change has been the only constant since developer True North Studio bought the property at 214 East Roosevelt Street just over two years ago.
Built by Del Webb in the late 1930s, the former warehouse became a staple of the downtown arts scene after commercial photographer Wayne Rainey bought it during the late ‘90s and turned it into a mixed-use creative space. Rainey sold the property to True North Studio for $3.5 million, ushering in a series of changes at the site. Most recently, monOrchid was home to Be Coffee and The Dressing Room restaurant. Both closed in March 2020.
