Production
Background
The Vengeance event was initially established as a pay-per-view (PPV) for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in 2001. Vengeance was held annually until 2007 and was brought back as a one-off event in 2011. The event was revived for WWE's developmental brand NXT in 2021 as TakeOver: Vengeance Day, a nod to the event being held around Valentine's Day. The event continued to be held annually in NXT, being known simply as Vengeance Day after the conclusion of TakeOver events.
On November 27, 2023, it was announced that the fourth NXT Vengeance Day event would take place on February 4, 2024, at the F&M Bank Arena in Clarksville, Tennessee.
Storylines
The 2024 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic began on the January 9 episode of NXT, with the finals taking place at Vengeance Day. The winners of the tournament received a future NXT Tag Team Championship match.
On the January 9 episode of NXT, Oba Femi cashed in his Breakout Tournament victory, capturing the North American Championship from Dragon Lee, who had just defended the title against Lexis King. The following week, Lee challenged Femi to a rematch, however, Femi declined, declaring that he would not be accepting open challenges as Lee had done. Lee then challenged Femi to a title match at Vengeance Day, which Femi took into consideration. The next week, Femi accepted Lee's challenge.
On the January 9 episode of NXT, NXT General Manager Ava announced that a unique battle royal would take place the following week, with the winner challenging NXT Women's Champion Lyra Valkyria at Vengeance Day. Fallon Henley, Kelani Jordan, Kiana James, and Roxanne Perez won the initial stage of the battle royal, with Perez going on to win the following fatal four way match in order to earn a title match at Vengeance Day.
At Deadline on December 9, 2023, Trick Williams emerged victorious in the Men's Iron Survivor Challenge, earning a future NXT Championship opportunity. Williams was scheduled to challenge NXT Champion Ilja Dragunov at New Year's Evil on January 2, 2024, however, Dragunov was not medically cleared to compete. The match was later rescheduled to take place at Vengeance Day.
