NXT took over Full Sail University last night for the first time in almost five years as they presented In Your House. The show aimed to give the WWE Universe a throwback to the 1990s WWF show that first debuted 25 years ago.
It was another stacked night of entertainment as Io Shirai became the NXT Women's Champion for the first time, whilst Adam Cole and Keith Lee were able to successfully defend their Championships in the only other title matches.
Karrion Kross made his Takeover debut with a win over Tommaso Ciampa, whilst Finn Balor, the only surviving star from the 2015 Takeover at Full Sail picked up a huge win over Damien Priest.
It was another impressive night from WWE's third brand and here are some interesting stats coming out of the show.
#5. Finn Balor has won at Takeover more than any other star
Finn Balor won his match last night at Takeover: In Your House against Damien Priest in what was considered a shock. The former Universal Champion was expected to put Priest over since he has made his return to NXT and is helping push forward the next big stars of the brand.
This win marked a huge milestone in the NXT career of Finn Balor since it was his 11th victory at Takeover. This means that The Prince has won more times at an NXT Takeover event than any other superstar in the history of the company.
NXT has been good to Balor over the years, as he is a former NXT Champion and was once the longest reigning Champion. It appears that the Irish star has been able to rekindle his passion and find his feet by making his return to his old stomping ground.
#4. Tommaso Ciampa's first loss by submission in two years
Tommaso Ciampa has been one of the stars carrying NXT over the past few years, as his feud with Johnny Gargano transcended into so much more than either man could ever imagine.
There was a time when Gargano and Ciampa were best friends in the Tag Team division, now both men are seen as main event level superstars following their lengthy three-year feud.
Now that the former DIY members have gone their separate ways, The Sicilian Psychopath has turned his attention to newcomer Karrion Kross, who made his Takeover debut last night.
It was an incredible match where Kross made it clear that he was a future NXT Champion before he forced Ciampa to submit and announced his arrival on the brand.
Given Ciampa's history in NXT, this was a huge win for Kross, and the fact that it's the first time in more than two years that Ciampa has been defeated by submission only pushed home the fact that WWE consider Kross to be a definite future star.
#3. Charlotte Flair has had 66 Championship matches in seven years
Charlotte Flair hasn't performed at an NXT Takeover event in more than five years since the former 12-time Women's Champion was promoted to the main roster back in 2015, and it could be argued that she hasn't looked back.
Flair's WrestleMania victory over Rhea Ripley for the NXT Women's Championship meant that she was contractually obligated to head back down to Full Sail to defend her newly won Championship, and last night she was part of a triple threat title defense.
Charlotte took on Rhea Ripley and Io Shirai in her return to NXT Takeover and the loss has pulled up a mind-blowing statistic. Charlotte Flair has been part of 66 Championship matches in her seven years in WWE.
This means that Flair has been part of a Championship match almost once a month since she made her WWE debut back in 2013. Last night, The Queen lost her Championship to The Evil Genius of the Sky, Io Shirai, which could lead to another Championship match for the 12-time Champion in the coming weeks.
#2. Tag Team Championships weren't defended for the first time in five years
Breezango returned last week on NXT and many fans believed that this could lead to an NXT Tag Team Championship match at Takeover: In Your House. However, the match wasn't added.
It was instead the women who filled the quota for a Tag Team match as part of the Takeover show when Dakota Kai teamed with Raquel Gonzalez and Candice LeRae in a losing effort to Tegan Nox, Mia Yim, and Shotzi Blackheart. This was the match that kicked off the show and surprisingly was the only tag team match on the card.
The NXT Tag Team Championship has been treated as one of the main titles on the brand for a number of years, which is why another interesting statistic comes out of last night's show.
The last time the NXT Tag Team Championships were not defended on a Takeover card was all the way back at NXT Takeover: Respect in 2015. That means that Imperium are the first champions in five years to not be given the opportunity to defend their titles on pay-per-view.
#1. Women in the main event for the first time in five years
The women of NXT stole the show once again last night as they put on a fantastic triple threat match in the main event. Over the years, Charlotte Flair has become accustomed to main eventing pay-per-views, especially since The Queen was one of three women to main event last year's WrestleMania.
That being said, the current crop of NXT women have not been afforded the same opportunities as Flair and that is only made more transparent by the fact that this was the first women's main event at a Takeover in five years.
The last time the women were given the chance to main event the show was back at NXT Takeover: Respect in 2015, that night it was Sasha Banks and Bayley who collided in an Ironwoman match.
Last night, Io Shirai gave enough of an account of herself to prove that she could go on to main event many more Takeover events as the NXT Women's Champion if the company gives her the chance.
