The 2014 NXT TakeOver was the inaugural NXT TakeOver professional wrestling livestreaming event produced by WWE . It was held exclusively for wrestlers from the promotion's developmental territory , NXT . The event aired exclusively on the WWE Network and took place on May 29, 2014, at NXT's home arena, Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida .
Five matches were contested during the main broadcast and one match prior to the televised portion of the show. The main event was the first high-profile NXT Championship defense in Adrian Neville 's title reign after winning the championship at NXT Arrival as he wrestled Tyson Kidd . In another prominent match, the tournament finals for the vacant NXT Women's Championship was contested as Charlotte defeated Natalya to win the title.
Production [ edit ]
Background [ edit ]
In 2012, WWE restructured their NXT brand from being a reality -based competition television show to a developmental territory for their main roster. In February 2014, the promotion held its first live special for NXT that was uniquely titled Arrival , which was also the very first event to air live on WWE's online streaming service, the WWE Network , which launched three days earlier.[1] Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida .[2]
Storylines [ edit ]
The event comprised five matches that from scripted storylines. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the NXT brand, while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television program, NXT [3] [4]
The commentators were Tom Phillips , William Regal , and Byron Saxton .[2] Christian , Paul Heyman , and Renee Young .[5]
Preliminary matches [ edit ]
The first match saw Adam Rose face Camacho . Rose executed a "Party Foul" on Camacho to win the match.[2]
Next, The Ascension (Konnor and Viktor ) defended the NXT Tag Team Championship against Kalisto and El Local . Viktor pinned El Local after the "Fall of Man" to retain the titles.[2]
After that, Sami Zayn faced Tyler Breeze to determine the #1 contender to the NXT Championship . During the match, Zayn executed a "Blue Thunder Bomb" on Breeze for a near-fall. Breeze executed a "Supermodel Kick" on Zayn for a near-fall. In the end, as Zayn attempted a "Helluva Kick" on Breeze, Breeze executed a "Beauty Shot" to win the match.[2]
There was a segment with Mojo Rawley confronting Rusev and Lana ; Rusev dominated the resultant brawl.[2]
In the penultimate match, Charlotte (accompanied by her father, Ric Flair ) faced Natalya (accompanied by her uncle, WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart ) for the vacant NXT Women's Championship . During the match, Natalya applied the sharpshooter on Charlotte, who countered into the "Figure-Eight Leglock" , which Natalya would counter. Charlotte applied the sharpshooter on Natalya but Natalya escaped. Charlotte pinned Natalya after "Natural Selection" to win the title.[2]
Main event [ edit ]
In the main event, Adrian Neville defended the NXT Championship against Tyson Kidd . During the match, Neville executed a pop-up sitout powerbomb on Kidd for a near-fall. Kidd performed a springboard "Blockbuster" on Neville for a near-fall. Kidd applied the sharpshooter on Neville and transitioned into the "Dungeon Lock" , with Neville touching the ropes to break the hold. In the end, Neville executed a super hurricanrana and a "Red Arrow" on Kidd to retain the title.[2]
Aftermath [ edit ]
With the scheduling of NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way in September 2014, the "TakeOver " name would subsequently be used as the brand name for NXT's live shows. The TakeOver events were held several times a year, often as support shows for one of WWE's main shows, such as WrestleMania or SummerSlam .[2] TakeOver 31 in October 2020 when they also became available on traditional pay-per-view (PPV),[6] Peacock after the American version of the WWE Network merged under Peacock in March 2021.[7] TakeOver 36 in August that year. In September 2021, the NXT brand went through a restructuring, being rebranded as "NXT 2.0", reverting, in part, to a developmental territory for WWE.[8] [9] [10] WarGames . While WarGames had been held as a TakeOver event from 2017 to 2020, the announcement confirmed that the 2021 event would not be a TakeOver event, thus ending the TakeOver series.[11] [12] [13] Mat Man Podcast reported that WWE may use the TakeOver name again if an NXT event is held in a large venue, such as sharing the same venue with one of WWE's major events, and held as a support show for one of those events, like several previous TakeOvers have done.[14]
