Isenberg Reacts: Previewing NXT Takeover Brooklyn III

By Josh Isenberg

Ember Moon vs. Asuka

Asuka is going to lose at NXT Takeover Brooklyn III. That is my bold prediction. Look at this rematch and how desperately NXT needs someone to step up and overtake Asuka as the champion. Asuka has accomplished everything in NXT and could be critical for the next month or two of continuing to develop Ember Moon as a champion and her incoming opponents. When that is accomplished, Asuka would make a fantastic choice to join WWE RAW.

Asuka and Ember Moon was solid in Orlando, but it was not memorable aside from Asuka using a cheap shot to retain. This should be something that is shown and seen on Saturday, with Ember Moon overcoming the odds the second time. I am not sure if the Brooklyn crowd will cheer her, but they will be invested in the match. WWE has focused so much on Asuka’s streak that I know the fans will enjoy and appreciate this.

How does it end? I think Ember reverses Asuka’s cheap shot and then hits the Eclipse (a second time) and finally ends one of the most impressive streaks in the history of sports entertainment.

Next Up…NXT Championship
