Just so Barbosa absolutely, positively cannot, under any circumstances, see the spoiler that I'm about to comment on, I am mercilessly, ruthlessly padding out this post. Just-- just padding the absolute fuck out of it. Surely nothing after this point will be readable on the main page, will it? Surely I have gone well past the point of no return. No going back now. Here goes. Spoilers. Spoilerinos.

An updated graphic swaps the bottom left match with the top right. That makes my own hope for the semi finals a little more interesting.
NXT
Date: March 7, 2018
Location: Center Stage Theater, Atlanta, Georgia

It’s tournament time! Just in case two tournaments going on at the same time wasn’t enough, tonight we start the third Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. This time, the winners will be challenging for the NXT Tag Team Titles at Takeover: New Orleans. Other than that we need to start building to the rest of that show so let’s get to it.

Ain't That A Kick Of The Head
With the announcement at WWE.com a few minutes ago regarding a new title coming to NXT, TakeOver: New Orleans is already looking to be a great show. The final card should look something like this:
NXT Championship - Andrade "Cien" Almas vs. Aleister Black
NXT North American Championship Ladder Match - Ethan Carter III vs. Velveteen Dream vs. Ricochet vs. Adam Cole vs. Lars Sullivan vs. Killian Dane
NXT Women's Championship - Ember Moon vs. Shayna Baszler
Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic Finals for the NXT Tag Team Championship
Singles Match - Johnny Gargano vs. Tomasso Ciampa
There are rumors that Bobby Fish will undergo surgery for a knee injury he suffered recently at a house show. If so, and given that Cole is in the NXT North American Championship ladder match, it the UE will most likely vacate the titles and the finals of the tourney will be for the titles themselves.

How do you think they're going to write Johnny into TakeOver? After last night's show, I wonder of Tomasso is going to demand Regal bring him back for one more match. (And when he loses, he's going to blame it on Regal.)
I get the distinct feeling they'll do a segment though not a match between Gargano and Ciampa - they're not going to want to overshadow Black's crowning moment (Almas is moving up after Mania I'd guess) and it'd be poetic for the thing to run through until the next Chicago Takeover, given that's where it started. Also, the ending of the angle is Johnny winning, right? Then surely they'll let Ciampa get even more of an upper hand/be more of an utter bastard in the lead up to the match.
I wouldn't be shocked is War Machine got the big debut showcase spot to fill out the typical five match card.
