Now It’s Cleared Up. WWE Officially Announces The Date Of The Next Takeover.

Now we know when. NXT’s series of Takeover events have become universally revered as some of the best and most exciting wrestling events of modern, if not all, times. The events are great on their worst days and all time classics on their best. The most recent Takeover took place over WrestleMania weekend and now we know a few details about the followup event.

A new video posted on WWE’s YouTube channel has announced that the next Takeover will take place on Saturday June 1. No location was announced for the event, though ticketing information will be made public on Monday. Takeover was originally scheduled for June 8 in San Jose, California but the scheduled was changed to accommodate the upcoming Saudi Arabia show.

It’s going to be a big deal. Check out the announcement:

Since that’s a little short, here’s a bonus. Check out some great Takeover title changes:

Opinion: I’m not sure about this as less than two months is quite the turnaround between Takeovers. The show is all but a guaranteed success, but it might be nice to have another week or two to get things ready. The Saudi Arabia shows claim another victim here, as WWE continues to bend over backwards to accommodate them. I understand why, but it’s frustrating for fans.
