In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter (via Wrestling Inc), it was revealed that plans for the match between Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa were changed due to plans for Money in the Bank. It was planned for Ciampa vs. Gargano to be a Last Man Standing match, but obviously now that AJ Styles and Shinsuke Nakamura will compete with that stipulation, the NXT Takeover: Chicago II match has been changed to a street fight.

The event happens on June 16 at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois, the night before Money in the Bank.
