NXT TakeOver: Tampa Bay[1] is an upcoming professional wrestling show and WWE Network event produced by WWE for their NXT brand. It will take place on April 4, 2020 from the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida, as part of WrestleMania 36 week.[2]

Production

Background

TakeOver is a series of professional wrestling shows that began on May 29, 2014, as the WWE developmental territory NXT held their second WWE Network exclusive live broadcast billed as TakeOver.[3] In subsequent months, the "TakeOver" moniker became the brand used by WWE for all of their NXT live WWE Network specials. Tampa Bay will be the 29th NXT TakeOver event.

Storylines

The card will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters to build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches, with results predetermined by WWE's writers on the NXT brand, while storylines are produced on their weekly television program.[4][5]

On the February 26 episode of NXT, General Manager William Regal announced that there will be a ladder match at TakeOver: Tampa to determine the number one contender to the NXT Women's Championship. In addition, he revealed that the participants for the ladder match will be determined through a series of qualifying matches which are held in the next several weeks.[6] On the March 4 episode of NXT, Chelsea Green qualified for the match by defeating Shotzi Blackheart.[7]
