Wrestling's hottest brand returns to the UK this June.
WWE.com
TakeOver: Dallas may have been a new height for NXT, but the brand's not about to start coasting.
The WWE developmental league has announced a new series of shows for the United Kingdom and Ireland this June, and stars Finn Balor, Bayley, Baron Corbin, and Shinsuke Nakamura have already been confirmed as appearing, according to the promotional material (see above).
Of course, all cards are subject to change but it's interesting to note Finn Balor's inclusion in the promos given the expectation that he may be going to the main roster soon after WrestleMania 32.
The first three shows of the tour will take place at the world-famous Download Festival in Derby's Donington Park on June 10, 11, and 12. NXT matches will run alongside performances by bands such as Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden, and the stars of the brand will also be available for autograph signings.
After the Download Festival, the NXT brand will continue to tour the area. The complete schedule of remaining shows is as follows:
Monday, June 13 – 3Arena, Dublin
Tuesday, June 14 – SSE Arena, Belfast
Wedesnday, June 15 – Echo Arena, Liverpool
Thursday June 16 – Bournemouth International Centre, Bournemouth
Friday, June 17 – Pavilions Arena, Plymouth
Tickets are currently on sale for Download Festival, while tickets for the individual NXT arena shows will be available on April 8.
