Who could/should be de finale member of team Ciampa?

I always thought it would be Gargano but that doesn't make sense since he should've fought Balor so now I have no clue. Maybe Dream or Kushida was cleared last minute? Austin Theory would be cool as would Cameron Grimes. Will probably end up being something I'm not thinking or Lio Rush.

That would be a fun twist.

Yeah, I was leaning to a RAW/Smackdown roster member with an NXT past.
Owens is part of team RAW, no?

According PWInsider.com, Sheamus is the mystery partner.
Besides, John Morrison might make his return at tonight's ppv.

Sheamus would be horribly underwhelming. I like the guy, but not as a surprise teammate in this scenario.

Why would they send Sheamus to NXT instead of an alumni?

I think it's going to be Morrison. It would make sense to bring him back in NXT where he can be himself and get over with both his in ring and character work.

Has there ever been a bad takeover?

The first one I ever watched was the one where Owens debuted and Zayn won the NXT title. There has literally not been a bad one since then. The crazy thing is I feel like they are significantly better the past two years than they were before. I think the rise of Gargano, Ciampa, Cole, Almas, and others really took the in-ring work to another level.

No, lol. It's the craziest streak in the history of wrestling.

Felt like it needed to go another 10 minutes, but that was good.

I feel like heel Dakota is gonna go... nowhere? Cool moment but she's best as a face.

Goddamn, that women's match was good. Love the character progression of Ripley.

I think she proved you wrong tonight.

It seems like all the "best as a face" wrestlers make incredible heels.

Cole vs Dunne is going to be the best match on SS, obviously
