Notes:
- As expected, any mentions of Takeover being in Brooklyn were met with negative crowd reactions.
- This marks the official TV debut of Dasha Fuentes as a ring announcer. I assume this means Jojo is now full time on the main roster.
- Samoa Joe has new theme music.
- The next tapings are scheduled for August 13. This puts them before Takeover. I'm interested to see if they go full spoilers or get creative and book around it.
