NXT Takeover: Los Angeles Scheduled For November; War Games To Be Included

NXT is coming to Los Angeles. 

The night before WWE Survivor Series, NXT will be hosting another Takeover event in the same arena as the main roster pay-per-view. The Takeover series has never visited Los Angeles and the events have never been hosted farther west than San Antonio, Texas.

After the initial announcement of the Los Angeles show, WWE announced the event will feature a War Games match. 

The following is an excerpt from the statement provided on WWE.com

NXT TakeOver: WarGames returns this November when the black-and-yellow brand comes to the STAPLES Center on the eve of Survivor Series on Saturday, Nov. 17.

The NXT Universe witnessed the monumental return of the first WarGames Match in nearly 20 years last November. Initially made famous as one of the premier match types in the NWA and, later, WCW, WarGames is a battleground unlike any other, pitting teams against each other inside two rings surrounded by a steel cage.

Last year’s match, fought among Undisputed ERA, Authors of Pain & Roderick Strong and SAnitY, set a new standard for brutality and gave Undisputed ERA bragging right after they picked up the historic win.

NXT is currently building to NXT Takeover: Brooklyn IV which takes places on the same weekend as WWE Summerslam.
