NXT Takeover: Respect - No Luster for Dusty Cup

About this episode

The episode revisits the NXT Takeover: Respect event, reflecting on its significance and memorable moments.

We return to Full Sail to revisit the now decade-old Takeover: Respect. But with the dust(y) now having well and truly settled, is this event what we remember? Bayley and Sasha make history in the main event, in an Iron Man rematch from Brooklyn. Asuka makes her debut, and Chad Gable is over as all hell. But let's find out which tag team will win this tag team tournament... Welcome to TEN-XT, an officially unofficial WWE:NXT history podcast. Three lifelong friends discuss the episode of NXT that came out ten years ago today. And along the way, the wider world of the time - Including sports, news and of course... wrestling. We are not affiliated with WWE in any way, nor are we pro wrestlers. But we are fans of NXT, that IS true. Just North-East English lads talking wrestling, it's a stereotype at this point, so you know the drill.
