411’s WWE NXT Report 4.10.19

We start with a video recap of TakeOver: New York. Once again, NXT has a new weekly intro video and song. We’re still in Brooklyn as these matches taped before TakeOver.

Aliyah w/ Vanessa Borne vs. Candice LeRae

They lock up and Aliyah goes to a headlock. After a takedown, she just wails on Candice and talks trash. Arm drag from Candice but Aliyah heads to the apron for a breather. Shoulder thrust and a taunt to boos on the top. As she flips back in, Candice dropkicks her. Candice misses a baseball slide but hits a rebound kick when going back in. She gets in Borne’s face and Aliyah uses that distraction to pull her into the ropes. Face smash and she adds a leaping knee drop to no reaction. She gets two and moves to a straightjacket lock. Candice fights out but eats a boot for two. Candice catches the next boot and hits one of her own. Shoulder blocks connect and a running corner back elbow. Snapmare and step up senton. Candice adds a neckbreaker and the springboard moonsault for the win.

Winner: Candice LeRae in 4:08 [*3/4]

We take you back to TakeOver: New York where Velveteen Dream retained his North American Title against Matt Riddle. At WrestleMania, Dream cut a promo from his phone. Buddy Murphy walks by after his loss and Dream calls him someone who couldn’t handle the Mania bright lights. Murphy gets annoyed but says he stole the show. Dream tells him to watch his match against Riddle for a real show stealer and wonders where Murphy’s belt is.

Time to look back at the incredible War Raiders vs. Aleister Black and Ricochet match from TakeOver.

Another treat from TakeOver was the arrival of KUSHIDA! Footage airs from his official contract signing with Triple H and William Regal.

Danny Burch w/ Oney Lorcan vs. Jaxson Ryker w/ The Forgotten Sons

Burch explodes with a dropkick as soon as the bell rings. He keeps up the pressure with clubs and strikes. He has a kick blocked in the corner but comes back with an elbow. He goes up and Ryker swats him down. Ryker drops  clubs on him and hits an elbow for two. The same goes for a diving headbutt. He drops a knee but Burch breaks a sleeper with a jawbreaker. he chops Ryker but can’t drop him with two clotheslines. Wesley Blake gets involved, so Lorcan takes both men out with a cross body. Burch picks up a near fall but then takes the Widowmaker and that’s it.

Winner: Jaxson Ryker in 3:10 [**]

Oney goes after Ryker but the numbers game is too much. Ryker turns him inside out with a shot.
