WWE News: Final Card For ‘NXT Takeover: Dallas’ – Finn Balor Vs. Samoa Joe, New Match Added


This weekend, wrestling fans around the world are preparing for WrestleMania 32 which will take place on Sunday. On Saturday night, the 2016 class will be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, but that doesn’t start all the fun. Friday night, all the action begins with NXT Takeover: Dallas and the card is now set with a brand new match added and Finn Balor taking on Samoa Joe for the NXT Championship.

Some are looking at this NXT event as the show of the year, and there is no doubt that it will be a great one. WrestleZone has revealed that a brand new match has been added to the card, and there are now six total for Friday night.

On Wednesday’s episode of NXT, it was revealed that Apollo Crews will be taking on Elias Samson in what will surely be a brutal battle of force and strength. That’s a great match to have on the card, but so many can’t wait for the NXT Women’s Title match to take place.

Bayley has been fantastic in the role of NXT Women’s Champion, but she has a huge challenge in Asuka. WWE is labeling this match as “the most dangerous test” of Bayley’s career, and they aren’t far off from being spot on.

Both women are fan favorites and will give every single thing they have in the match, and the winner will walk away with the NXT Women’s Title, and they’ll surely deserve it.

Another match that many are looking forward to is one that will bring about the NXT debut of a longtime TNA superstar – Austin Aries.

A few weeks ago, Austin Aries made his debut in NXT and was almost immediately jumped by Baron Corbin which started off their feud. Now, Aries will have his first match in NXT and it’s on one of the grandest stages of them all.

Another big match is one that doesn’t really have a lot of history and it doesn’t have a lot behind it as far as a feud or anything. Sami Zayn has already moved up to the WWE main roster, but he’s finishing his time up in NXT and it could come to an end after he faces the debuting Shinsuke Nakamura.

Nakamura was part of the group of New Japan Pro Wrestling stars who have signed with WWE in the past couple of months. AJ Styles has already debuted on the WWE main roster, and while there has been no official word on their signing, Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson are expected to debut soon as well.

A match between Zayn and Nakamura is a wrestling fan’s dream. There doesn’t really need to be any build-up as it is obvious that they will put on a great show no matter what.

The full and final card for NXT Takeover: Dallas is set, and is as follows.

  • NXT Championship: Finn Balor (c) vs. Samoa Joe
  • NXT Women’s Championship: Bayley (c) vs. Asuka
  • NXT Tag Team Championship: The Revival (c) vs. American Alpha
  • Austin Aries vs. Baron Corbin
  • Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Sami Zayn
  • Apollo Crews vs. ELias Samson

WrestleMania 32 is on Sunday, but things are really getting kicked off in a big way with NXT Takeover: Dallas which many fans believe will be the better event. The title matches alone are enough to make it great and throwing in the debut of Austin Aries just keeps taking it up. Finn Balor vs. Samoa Joe is what everyone is waiting for, and it’s going to be worth it.
