It seems NXT don't plan on continuing the Bobby Roode/Hideo Itami feud past Takeover: Chicago, as the latter is almost certainly about to turn heel.

Itami had a match with Oney Lorcan for last night's television tapings, and hit his opponent with the devastating GTS. However, rather than pinning Lorcan, Itami proceeded to delver a further 2 Go-To-Sleeps. This brought out Kassius Ohno, and the two engaged in a shoving match before Hideo exited the ring.

Though this isn't 100% confirmation that a heel turn is on the cards, it'd definitely be an odd thing for Itami to do if that wasn't the ultimate plan. Why would they turn Itami heel so soon after he returned from injury to challenge for the NXT title? Perhaps they simply feel they can do more with him as a bad guy.

At any rate, we're bound to find out what's going on soon enough. In the meantime, let us know what you think in the comments.
