6 Biggest Winners From NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn

6. Jushin Thunder Liger

This is one winner that many probably didn't see happening. Jushin Thunder Liger is the legend and Tyler Breeze is the rookie in this pairing, so why wouldn't Breeze go over?

The always funny Kayfabe News even ran a satirical piece yesterday that poked fun of the very formulaic matchup that was titled "NXT rookie Liger gets huge opportunity against veteran Breeze." It just seemed like a lock that Liger would lose.

Even so, Liger won in this bout that was just as much a showcase of their characters as it was for their skills. Breeze's frustrations would be on display throughout the match as Liger mocked The King of Cuteville. Liger even posed with his beloved selfie stick to the ire of Tyler.

Jushin won the match with his Running Liger Bomb in this hot show opener. Perhaps his win lays the groundwork for a return match between these two, which would be a more meaningful win for Tyler in the long run.
