NXT has a United Kingdom brand, but the company is trying to expand its territory all over the world. Owing to this, many fans in different countries have wondered where WWE might set up another TakeOver event.
Following NXT TakeOver: WarGames, Triple H took part in a conference call. He talked about the possibility of bringing TakeOver events to fans outside of North America. While nothing is concrete yet, they have not given up on the idea.
“I think that’s a little bit of a work in progress. It’s a big world, a lot of really cool places to go work. As much as I can look at the UK and say, going back to Blackpool, I think they’d do spectacularly in London. I also think we can go to Glasgow. We went to Cardiff, it was amazing. There’s so many places, and that’s just picking the places we already go to on a regular basis, I think when we get outside of those, start going to different countries and regions, oh my gosh.”
“And then you start talking about NXT here, like this NXT U.S. brand, any one of those places could kill it. You could go to Japan, you could go to Australia, it’s a big world. I’d love to look at all of it, I’d love to bring them to all of it. Trying to figure how to make that happen with live TV and everything else, that’s the trick.”
WWE is interested in introducing a Japanese NXT brand among other things. NXT UK will also be getting its third TakeOver event next year. Perhaps we will get to see TakeOvers taking place in different countries in the future.
