O'Reilly wins

RESULT: Kyle O'Reilly defeats Adam Cole

This match is INCREDIBLE.

Please finish it. I'm so tired.

O'Reilly hits Cole with his own finisher!! Cole STILL kicks out!!

Cole goes for the Last Shot, but Kyle ducks and snags him in an ankle lock! Cole nails him with the chain to break the hold

Cole goes for the pin and O'Reilly gets a shoulder up... and I mean, it just barely got off the mat.

Kyle just DDT'd Cole THROUGH THE ENTRANCE RAMP

The ref attempts to stop Cole from straight up murdering O'Reilly and gets punched for his trouble. He then hits Kyle with the Panama City Sunrise and goes for the pin... except he knocked out the ref, the big dummy.

It kind of looks like Cole and O'Reilly are going to sit down and talk out their issues.

Ha ha Kyle had a piece of paper stuck to his butt

Kyle is about to DDT his former buddy onto the steps, just like Adam attempted to do to him, but he just can't bring himself to do it. Adam uses the hesitation to drive Kyle into the security wall

Cole attempts to DDT Kyle onto the steel steps, but O'Reilly flips over and snags him in a guillotine hold.

The chain has been the breakout star of this match.

O'Reilly has pulled a Hercules Hernandez-style chain out from under the ring, but Cole counters and DDTs him onto it.

Cole yelling at Kyle that O'Reilly would "be nothing without [him]" and then taunts him to "show [him] what [he's] got"

So O'Reilly does.

I love how even the ref is wearing all black to drive home the whole "unsanctioned" thing.

I was going to do some in-depth play by play for this but so far it boils down to "Adam/Kyle attempts to murder Kyle/Adam"

He's here, bay-bay. #NXTTakeOver @AdamColePro pic.twitter.com/gVzaxfYEut

I kind of dig the remix of the UE theme for Adam's new entrance music.

Kyle O'Reilly and his new music make their entrance. Kyle is rocking out to his own music, making him look like a giant dork and I love him for it.

Is Escobar now the 410 Live Champion?#NXTTakeOver

It's time for the main main event!

Chaotic finish sees Santos Escobar unify NXT Cruiserweight Championships

The psychology and storytelling of Balor and Kross was off the damn charts.#NXTTakeOver

Time is up for @FinnBalor.

Fall and pray to the NEW @WWENXT Champion: @WWEKarrionKross w/ @Lady_Scarlett1! #NXTTakeOver pic.twitter.com/fCnmEcVShj

Karrion Kross with two vicious forearms to the back of Finn's neck and then the pin.... and new champion

RESULT: Karrion Kross defeats Finn Balor to win the NXT Championship

Kross looks like he's about the murder Balor

Scarlett is now screaming in tongues at Kross and it seems to be working.

Finn counters a charge with a Pele kick and then a Coup de Gras, but Karrion not only kicks out but reverses it into a sleeperhold

Finn has had an answer for everything Kross has thrown at him, and answering with a smile on his face.

Love the brains vs. brawn story they are telling so far in this match. #NXTTakeOver

Finn's music led me to think Finn was gonna do the Demon thing and then I'd have to admit I was wrong but he didn't so I don't have to so ha ha

Coming up next is Finn Balor vs Karrion Kross.

Let's see what happens.

A stoic @AdamColePro.
A fired up @KORcombat.
An impending #UnsanctionedMatch. #NXTTakeOver pic.twitter.com/IrKRS1o8co

Ha ha I said missesses.

Reed attempts a moonsault but misseses! Johnny hits One Final Beat not once but TWICE! It's enough for the win!

RESULT: Johnny Gargano defeats Bronson Reed

Gargano nearly gets a One Final Beat, but Reed reverses it.

Bronson is up top again, but Austin Theory attempts to break it up. Reed fights him off, but it's enough for Gargano to charge and crotch Reed onto the turnbuckle. Johnny goes for a Hurricanrana but Reed slams him down.

Reed off the top and goes for the Tsunami but Gargano moves!

Or as Beth puts it, Tsu-not-so-much

Johnny tries to get the Gargano Escape on Reed twice and finally gets it locked in on the third attempt. Reed still manages to get to the bottom rope to break it up.

Reed has managed to nail Gargano with some pretty high impact moves but still can't get a three count.

Reed got shoved ribs-first into the announce table, and he's been selling the injury ever since.

Colossal ⌛️

Get em @bronsonreedwwe #NXTTakeOver
