NXT TakeOver: Chicago is scheduled to take place on 20 May 2017, just a day before Smackdown's PPV Backlash. Here's how I'll book it:
NXT Championship
Bobby Roode © VS Hideo Itami
NXT Women Championship
Asuka © VS Ember Moon
NXT Tag Team Championship
Authors Of Pain © VS #DIY
Drew McIntyre VS Kassius Ohno
Aleister Black VS Roderick Strong
Aleister Black gets another significant win. Drew McIntyre defeats Kassius Ohno and then enters the title picture. Since #DIY didn't get called up yet, they might and should get a title rematch. Authors Of Pain retain the titles and then face Heavy Machinery at next TakeOver. Asuka's undefeated streak finds the end in form of Ember Moon. And Hideo becomes the champion which has been due for so long but delayed to unfortunate injuries.
