The listing of Worlds Collide is not a mistake according to Pro Wrestling Sheet when they asked WWE for clarification. Pro Wrestling Sheet goes on to report that more details regarding the 2020 NXT TakeOver schedule will be announced in the near future. 

WWE held Worlds Collide during Royal Rumble 2019 and WrestleMania 35 weekend as part of their Axxess events. The shows featured superstars across all brands and special events such as NXT vs. NXT Alumni, Women Collide, Battle of the Brands, and more. The events would later air on WWE Network.
