Updated WWE NXT Takeover WarGames Lineup for Dec. 6, Five Matches Official

By John Canton • Published 3rd December 2020

There is a NXT Takeover WarGames event taking place this Sunday, December 6th on WWE Network. On last night’s NXT show, the women’s WarGames team was finalized with Shotzi Blackheart picking NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai, Rhea Ripley and Ember Moon to be on her team. They’ll be against Candice LeRae’s team that also has Toni Storm, Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez. The NXT Women’s division is absolutely on fire right now, so that’s going to be an incredible match.

Another match announced last night on NXT (my review is coming on TJRWrestling later today) is Tommaso Ciampa facing Timothy Thatcher. The full card is below.

Men’s WarGames Match (Advantage to Team McAfee): The Undisputed Era – Adam Cole, Kyle O’Reilly, Roderick Strong and Bobby Fish vs. Team McAfee – Pat McAfee, Pete Dunne, Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch

Women’s WarGames Match (Advantage to Team Shotzi): Shotzi Blackheart, Ember Moon, Rhea Ripley and NXT Women’s Champion Io Shirai vs. Candice LeRae, Toni Storm, Dakota Kai and Raquel Gonzalez

NXT North American Championship: Leon Ruff (c) vs. Johnny Gargano vs. Damian Priest

Strap Match: Dexter Lumis vs. Cameron Grimes

Tommaso Ciampa vs. Timothy Thatcher

That’s likely all the matches because NXT Takeover shows usually have only five matches.

In addition to that, the Kickoff Show will feature NXT commentator Wade Barrett with Sam Roberts and ESPN’s Ariel Helwani.

I’ll have a review of last night’s NXT on TJRWrestling later today, we’ll have a preview of Takeover WarGames later in the week and then I’ll have a review of Takeover WarGames on Sunday night.
