The 5 News Week: WWE Doesn't Have Big Plans For Daniel Bryan, Backstage Details About The Inner Workings Of Evolution.
NXT Takeover Is A Can't-Miss Show (No shit, Omar)
Why you ask? I mean for God sakes, the match card so far consists of a War Games match between The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly and Roderick Strong) vs. Pete Dunne, Ricochet, and War Raiders (Hanson and Rowe), Alester Black vs Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa vs Velveteen Dream for the NXT championship. I would love a hell in a cell match of some sort between Black and Gargano but that's just me. NXT Takeover: War Games is set to take place on Saturday, November 17, 2018.
WWE Doesn't Have Big Plans For Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan had his WWE championship match early on Smackdown Live this week against the champion AJ Styles which was supposed to be on Crown Jewel and the reason why it isn't on that show is because Bryan didn't want to be there for reasons such as Saudi Arabia didn't want Sami Zayn, who's of Syrian descent, to be on the Greatest Royal Rumble show several months ago which Bryan felt it was racist and the treatment of homosexuals. This by the way, was noted by Meltzer in the recent Observer Newsletter.
Now, Bryan Alveraz was asked on The Wrestling Observer Live with Mike Sempervive about if Daniel Bryan tapping out was a form of punishment and here's what Bryan Alveraz had to say (Transcript via Ringside news):
“I was told that the finish on SmackDown last night was the Crown Jewel finish. So it looks like no big plans for Daniel Bryan throughout the rest of the year. He had just won a tournament for a championship match at Crown Jewel and he didn’t want to go to Crown Jewel so they had their match on SmackDown and they had a finish and everyone else moves on.”
Will see where Daniel Bryan and the WWE Championship scene goes from here.

Backstage Details About The Inner Workings Of Evolution
There's no doubt that this was the first ever all women's PPV filled with great matches such as Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch for the Smackdown Women's championship and Shayna Baszler vs Kari Sane for the NXT Women's championship.
According to PWinsider, the same production crew that worked for the NXT shows worked on Evolution and the reason being is because the same production crew for RAW and Smackdown were in Charlotte, North Carolina to start production for RAW that day. Kevin Dunn didn't direct Evolution but rather it was the same person who directed the Takeover shows. As for Vince himself well he arrived just before the show started and "observed the show" for most of the night.
