Was anyone else getting an annoying buzzing sound when NXT played the ominous pre-match music while the competitors are walking backstage?

Happened with the backstage walk before the NXT title match and now with the backstage walk before this Unsanctioned match.

Cole's new theme sounds like a bootleg and bad generic version of the UE theme.

I’m a bit inconsistent with NXT, I usually just flip over during AEW ads to see what’s going on and seek out full matches later if I hear it’s good.

I get that he’s kinda owed a title run after getting hurt straight away last time, but Kross as champ certainly does not make me want to tune in on Tuesday.

Balor actually mentioned in a recent interview that he wants to go to NXT UK next if he has to leave NXT.

His time on the main roster was that traumatizing that he doesn't want to go back there.

Plus Triple H only really cares about hogging and stockpiling as much talent in his NXT brand even if it hurting the main roster.

Might be my laptop acting up again. Then again also could be the recent Windows update I installed that managed to mess up Firefox for streamed shows.

So far this Unsanctioned match feels like just a slow paced regular hardcore match than a blood feud style war.

O'Reilly running full steam into a stretch out chain rope was both crazy and stupid as hell.

He's lucky he didn't cut his throat or gash his head.

WALTER's chop really is the strongest move in the WWE universe since the table didn't break from that suplex spot by O'Reilly.

This match has gone on way too long so far.

NXT keeps taking the wrong lessons when it comes to wrestling in pandemic era. First it was doing extra long and drawn out cinematic matches and now its doing a show just as long as a regular Takeover despite the whole purposes of doing a two night show is so that they'd be shorter in length.

The crowd atmosphere sounds good for a COVID-era show, with real chants and stuff... Have they had that many people in the first few rows on the camera side on regular NXT episodes for a while, or did it just start now (I know they had some real people, but seems like a lot more now)

Thank god it finally ended. Unsanctioned match was very good but didn't need to go over 40 minutes long.

Didn't even really feel worthy of being an Unsanctioned match until the last few minutes.

I'd put AEW's Unsanctioned match with Britt Baker above this one for recent comparisons.

Yesterday was the first time. They basically gutted the pods and dividers to get more space for fans.

Not really a fan of them doing it considering the amount of times they've had outbreaks there.

Now that Night 2's done, I'd put Night 1 over it and the NXT title match as the second best match from TakeOver.

Nothing tonight managed to really topple the greatness WALTER vs. Ciampa was.

In terms of TakeOvers, I'd still put this in the upper half but lower than what I felt coming in to tonight's show.

I caught Balor/Kross and Cole/O'Reilly

Balor/Kross was good

Cole/O'Reilly had too many false finishes. Like a few is fine but not like 20. Good match otherwise.

Devlin/Escobar was great, but tbh, I still think the ladder was unnecessary. I want to see them have an actual wrestling match. Absolutely incredible stuff.
