NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool II

NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool II was the third and final NXT UK TakeOver professional wrestling livestreaming event, and second and final TakeOver: Blackpool event, produced by WWE. It was held exclusively for wrestlers from the promotion's NXT UK brand division. The event aired exclusively on the WWE Network and took place on 12 January 2020 at the Empress Ballroom in Blackpool, Lancashire, England. It was the only NXT UK TakeOver to be held in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It would be the final NXT UK TakeOver event as although WWE resumed live touring in July 2021 and with COVID travel restrictions being loosened, no further NXT UK TakeOver events were scheduled.
