8 Ways NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn Will Overshadow WWE SummerSlam

4. It's A History Making Event

While The Undertaker and Brock Lesnar's match is being billed as the biggest rematch in WWE history, that reeks of the kind of hyperbole that the company so often uses to make something sound more important than it actually is (bear in mind that The Rock vs. John Cena was supposed to be "Once In A Lifetime"). That's not to say that it's not a big deal, but the two clashed plenty of times during Lesnar's first WWE run, and without The Streak on the line, it's hard to imagine how much of an impact this rematch will ultimately have on WWE history regardless of how exciting a prospect it is to see these two once again come to blows. NXT TakeOver on the other hand is a very big deal for the brand. Its popularity has massively increased since the launch of the WWE Network, and the fact that NXT has started touring the US this year with live events and has now sold out the Barclays Arena points to it soon moving to another level. It could be that it ends up being aired live from different arenas around the country just like Raw and SmackDown at some point in the next few years because the demand is clearly there and the WWE will no doubt want to capitalise on its popularity if they know they can sell out more than just Full Sail on a weekly basis. TakeOver: Brooklyn is really the first step in the brand heading in that direction and those lucky enough to be there are going to be part of history. This is a first for NXT, and you have to believe that Triple H will ensure that the show which is put on will be all wrestling fans are talking about when the weekend is over. SummerSlam currently doesn't have a match which can convincingly make the same claim.
