Only 2 segments have been announced for NXT tonight, but both play heavily into what will happen at NXT: Takeover Brooklyn III. The next Takeover event takes place August 19th, the night before SummerSlam 2017.

Segments Announced for Tonight

Bobby Roode will defend the NXT championship against Roderick Strong in the main event.
Roode made some slide remarks towards Strong and his new family backstage recently, starting the conflict between the two.
Strong had previously lost a #1 contenders match to Hideo Itami in April.
Since then he’s defeated Eric Young at a Takeover event and teamed up with Kassius Ohno to defeat members of Sanity.

Kassius Ohno and Hideo Itami, who have been having their disagreements ever since Itami lost an NXT title match to Bobby Roode, team up tonight as well.
Ohno and Itami will take on members of Sanity in a tag team match. I’m sure they will get along just fine.
Last week, Itami tried to tell Ohno to brush off his loss to Aleister Black, but Ohno may not have been as receptive as he would like.
