Henry's Universe Mode(Season 4): NXT Takeover: Chicago II Preview

It's time to breakdown the card for NXT's second trip to Chicago.






NXT Takeover: Chicago Card


Cedric Alexander vs Drew Gulak vs Mustafa Ali vs Oney Lorcan- Cruiserweight Championship Match

The opening contest should be a doozy, for the vacant Cruiserweight Championship. NXT GM Triple H announced qualifiers for this elimination fatal four-way, and Cedric Alexander was first to qualify, defeating TJP. Drew Gulak tapped out former champion Noam Dar, Mustafa Ali defeated Akira Tozawa, and Oney Lorcan took out the braggadocios Tony Nese.


Hideo Itami vs Velveteen Dream

After weeks of vignettes, the bizarre and intoxicating Velveteen Dream made his debut, He has been dominant since, and shows no respect or humility towards his opponents, earning the wrath of Hideo Itami. Itami has vowed to put the youngster in his place and climb back up the rankings to the NXT Championship.


The Undisputed Era(c) vs The Ascension- NXT Tag Team Championship Match

Following a title defense over Eric Young and Alexander Wolfe of SAnitY, the champions have been even more arrogant than usual, declaring themselves the best tag team and faction NXT has ever seen. Next in line are The Ascension, who have been on a warpath lately in an attempt to finally capture the titles.


Carmella(c) vs ???- NXT Women's Championship Match

With a win in a No DQ match over Nikki Cross, Carmella has now taken complete control of the division with Cross nowhere to be found. Triple H then organized the Mae Young Classic, featuring eight newly signed women to compete in a single elimination tournament, with the winner getting this championship match. The matches have taken place over the past month, but you'll see them all tomorrow, in a special one-off post.


Apollo Crews(c) vs Lars Sullivan- NXT Championship Match

Apollo Crews has put on nothing but incredible matches since becoming NXT Champion, earning back the support of the fans. But he now has a new threat in The Freak, Lars Sullivan, who is currently undefeated. In Takeover's main event, can Crews keep his championship reign alive, or will he be another victim of Sullivan's dominance?

South Park "Not Funny" Review

Good night, amateur trolls that trolled a troll and trolled themselves into a troll, brothers. With one episode to go in the season, South Park has remained consistently funny and on-point with their humor, though I worry about how their going to wrap all of this up. There are a good six to seven ongoing storylines right now, and only one episode to finish off a few of them. There was no clear focus this week, but I'll start where the episode ended, with Gerald's troll-based storyline. It's pretty satisfying to see the Troll Hunter's massive revelation; that he is, in fact, just another troll, bent on world destruction. Even Gerald couldn't find the humor in his master plan, as the Troll Hunter is truly in a league of his own. With the world on the brink of war, the trolling has truly begun, as the Troll Hunter went to work on his own employees and the other trolls, though why they had to be naked for that is beyond me. Kyle is always a sucker for saving the ...

Henry's Universe Mode #231: WrestleMania II (Part 3)

Finn Balor vs The Undertaker Finn Balor felt the full force of the strikes of The Undertaker in the early going, eating rights and lefts to the skull. The Undertaker continued to lay into Balor, dumping him to the floor with a clothesline, then following up with his vintage suicide dive! After a brief skirmish on the outside, the Deadman got destructive, grabbing the Demon's throat and driving him through the announce table with a chokeslam! It was here that The Undertaker allowed Finn Balor a chance to just give up and concede defeat, but Balor wasn't having any of it. Finn got his second wind, countering an attempted chokeslam to connect with a reverse DDT, then the shotgun dropkick in the corner. Up top, Finn connected with Coup de Grace! 1........................2.......................but it's going to take a lot more to put The Undertaker away, especially at WrestleMania. Balor laid in some shots, busting The Undertaker open, but that proved to be a huge mistake. ...
