Drake is crying in the ring saying to the camera, “Thank you for all the support.” Everyone in the Performance Center chant for him. Triple H comes out with a NXT contract in his hand and tells Drake to sign it. He signs it. The show goes off the air with everyone cheering for Drake as he hugs Triple H.

Overall Opinion: This show wasn’t better than last week with that steel cage match with Riddle and Thatcher but it was another enjoyable show. The main event was really great in terms of both storytelling and in ring action. They had me there for a second with Drake leaving until he signed a new contract right there. I wish though that they would’ve saved that for the next week or after that. I don’t like when they have to rush storylines.
The promos for the NXT and Women’s Championship both built up the match very well heading into this Sunday’s show. The way they did this was almost like how combat sports such as UFC and boxing build up their high profile matches which is all you can do with the current circumstances.
I was kind of thrown off that Breezango would be the one challenging for the tag titles with how they highlighted Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch last week. It was odd but I’m glad they’re back together on the bright side of it.
NXT Takeover: In Your House looks to be a stacked show this Sunday for sure.
