NXT Takeover
Overview
NXT TakeOver is the name given to the periodic specials produced by WWE featuring the NXT division, which are streamed live on the WWE Network . NXT TakeOver events are usually scheduled to air for two hours, although some have run for two and a half hours. They are held several times a year.
The first NXT live special was uniquely entitled NXT Arrival , to coincide with the launch of the WWE Network. However, after the next live special NXT TakeOver , the "TakeOver" name has been used for subsequent NXT live specials from then on. They were initially all held at Full Sail University but from NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn forward the shows have been held at various locations both nationally and internationally. The NXT Takeover Special events are treated similarly to pay-per-view shows for the main roster, with some events like NXT TakeOver: Dallas and WrestleMania 32 taking place on the same weekend and location or like NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn I and SummerSlam (2015) at the same arena.
NXT TakeOver was moved back to Full Sail University when NXT TakeOver: In Your House rolled around following protocol from the Covid-19 pandemic . Later events like NXT TakeOver 31 would move to the WWE Performance Center , now renamed the Capitol Wrestling Center.
