<h2 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>WWE NXT Takeaways</strong></h2>



<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>1. A New Era In NXT</strong></h3>

</div></figure>



<p>Karrion (Killer) Kross, Timothy Thatcher, Dexter Lumis appeared in various segments this week, and all the three superstars looked absolutely dominant, which could be the start of a brand new era in NXT. Even the Tag-Team Division is getting the Indus Sher as a new force, while Charlotte Flair is out to rebuild the division which suffered the wrath of Shayna Baszler for months.</p>



<p>NXT is doing a hard reset on the storylines, which is quite exciting to see, and several new rivalries will add to the fun in the coming weeks.</p>



<h3 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong>2. A Dream Date</strong></h3>



<figure class="wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
<div class="youtube-embed" data-video_id="P9klH-UBA3Y"><iframe loading="lazy" title="Finn Bálor confronts The Velveteen Dream: WWE NXT, April 15, 2020" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/P9klH-UBA3Y?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
</div></figure>



<p>The two challengers for the top two NXT titles, NXT Championship and NXT UK Championship, crossed paths this week and set up a date for next week&#8217;s NXT. Dream vs Balor is bound to be a fantastic match, even though it might end up being one-off for the time being.</p>



<p>Dream is the true future of NXT while Balor is the one who starred in the Golden Era on Wednesday nights all those years ago. A future feud between these two could be a tremendous way to go forward.</p>
