San Antonio is the location for the next NXT Takeover show, and it's a very interesting one, as new champion Apollo Crews looks to make his first NXT Championship defense. This is the card for NXT Takeover: San Antonio.
NXT Takeover: San Antonio Card
The Undisputed Era(c) vs TM-61- NXT Tag Team Championship Match
It was perhaps one of the biggest upsets the NXT brand had ever seen, as in their first match as champions, the Undisputed Era lost to Nick Miller and Shane Thorne, TM-61. This shocking result was mostly thanks to the Authors of Pain, looking to settle the score from Toronto. A few weeks later, Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly defeated Akam and Rezar to retain their titles, and now look to avenge their previous humiliation.
Neville(c) vs Akira Tozawa vs Gran Metalik- Cruiserweight Championship Match
The dominant Neville has not one but two challengers standing in his path, as both Tozawa and Metalik set their sights on the Cruiserweight belt. Can the King of the Cruiserweights survive perhaps his toughest challenge yet?
Nikki Cross(c) vs Carmella- NXT Women's Championship Match
Carmella has had a rough time since arriving in NXT, losing match after match. After another loss in just three minutes to the champion, she finally snapped, attacking Nikki Cross with a steel chair and taking her out of action. Carmella's newfound attitude has led to wins, as she defeated Natalya and Ember Moon to earn this championship match. But the Princess of Staten Island may have bit off more than she can chew, because Nikki Cross seems totally deranged in her quest for revenge, and she may do serious damage to Carmella when they meet in San Antonio.
Lars Sullivan vs Mojo Rawley
The Freak that is Lars Sullivan has been set loose on the NXT roster. With his incredible combination of unrelenting power and superior intelligence, Sullivan dismantled Kassius Ohno and Zack Ryder. Mojo Rawley will step up to the challenge, but you have to feel that the destructive path of Lars Sullivan has just begun.
Apollo Crews(c) vs Cedric Alexander- NXT Championship Match
This match was confirmed in Toronto, as both of these men got the biggest win of their careers, with Alexander becoming number one contender and Crews becoming champion. I don't think anyone could've imagined that these two men would someday main event a pay-per-view, but here we are. It's obvious that both men are incredibly talented physically, but it's the mental aspect that interests me. Crews has seemed to look down on Alexander as a true challenger, incredibly confident that he will remain champion. But actions speak louder than words, and Cedric Alexander got the first real shot in during their contract signing, hitting Crews with the Lumbar Check. Is the Age of Alexander soon to be crowned, or will Apollo back up his big talk in the ring?
