– Gabe Sapolsky and Sal Hamaoui of WWNLive are in town and are backstage at tonight’s WWE NXT Takeover: Brooklyn live special, which will no doubt increase speculation about a potential working relationship with WWE NXT.

– Samoa Joe, Bayley, Sasha Banks, Finn Bálor and Kevin Owens are currently featured on the advertising wall outside the Barclays Center for tonight’s event.

– For those wondering, the setup for tonight’s special and the production is similar to what has been used at Full Sail University, meaning NXT will not be using the traditional WWE pay-per-view setup. Triple H confirmed the look for the setup in a Facebook Live video earlier today. You can watch that video at this link.

– WWE Hall of Famer Amy “Lita” Dumas will join Byron Saxton, Corey Graves and Renee Young on the NXT Takeover: Brooklyn pre-show.

– NXT will be taping for a 90 minute edition of next week’s WWE NXT before Takeover: Brooklyn goes live on the WWE Network.

– Jushin Thunder Liger is only booked for the WWE NXT Takeover: Brooklyn live special but will be sticking around with WWE personnel for the WWE SummerSlam pay-per-view and WWE RAW the following night. Liger was contacted by WWE NXT Champion Finn Bálor and WWE NXT General Manager William Regal about working the event against Tyler Breeze.

– Speaking of Tyler Breeze, he will be giving fans an exclusive look at his entrance on his Facebook page at this link.
