NXT UK TakeOver: Dublin is an upcoming professional wrestling show and WWE Network event produced by WWE for their NXT UK brand division.

The event was originally to be held on 26 April 2020, but was rescheduled to 25 October due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which began affecting all of WWE's programming in mid-March that year. However, due to the ongoing pandemic, the event was rescheduled once again, this time to 20 June 2021.
Production
Background
TakeOver is a series of professional wrestling shows that began on 29 May 2014, when WWE's NXT brand held their second live special on the WWE Network.[1] The NXT UK brand debuted in August 2018 and subsequently adopted the name of their sister brand's live specials, beginning with TakeOver: Blackpool in 2019. TakeOver: Dublin will be the fourth NXT UK TakeOver event. It will be held at the 3Arena and is named after the venue's city of Dublin, Ireland. It will mark the first NXT UK TakeOver event held outside the United Kingdom.[2][3][4]
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
TakeOver: Dublin was originally scheduled to take place on 26 April 2020.[2] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, the event was postponed and rescheduled to occur on 25 October.[3] The ongoing pandemic caused the event to be rescheduled again, this time to 20 June 2021.[4]
Storylines
The card will include matches that result from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters to build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches, with results predetermined by WWE's writers on the NXT UK brand, while storylines are produced on their weekly television program NXT UK.[5][6]
