Love is in the air — and so is NXT’s next showcase event!
The next edition of NXT TakeOver will come your way on Valentine’s Day, Sunday, Feb. 14, at 7 E/4 P on the award-winning WWE Network.
The NXT Universe just saw a spectacular New Year’s Evil, with Finn Balor retaining the NXT Championship against Kyle O’Reilly, Karrion Kross taking down Damian Priest, and more. What’s in store when the black-and-gold brand takes over next month?
This will be the 33rd TakeOver event in NXT’s history.
Ahead of TakeOver, the men’s 2021 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic will begin on NXT next Wednesday (January 13). WWE hasn’t announced when the tournament will be concluding. The winning team will receive the Dusty Cup and a shot at Oney Lorcan & Danny Burch’s NXT Tag Team titles. It was also announced on New Year’s Evil that the first-ever women’s Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic will take place soon.
