He was promising big news from the NXT UK tapings in Liverpool today (Nov. 24), and Triple H didn’t wait. Or disappoint.
The black-and-yellow brand’s first regional spin-off is getting it’s first live WWE Network special early next year:
.@NXTUK returns to the place it began ... the place we first TOOK OVER. #NXTUKTakeOver: Blackpool will stream LIVE from the Empress Ballroom on January 12, 2019 only on @WWENetwork. #WeAreNXTUK pic.twitter.com/xW4LFjZLiX

At the moment, we’re short on details beyond what’s in that tweet, but it seems safe to assume that if you want to see NXT UK’s first TakeOver - from William Regal’s hometown and the site of the first United Kingdom Championship Tournament special back in January 2017 - us Yanks should leave the afternoon of Sat., Jan. 12 open.
Excited?
