NXT TakeOver was a professional wrestling event produced by WWE, under their NXT brand and was broadcast live on the WWE Network, available to subscribers. NXT TakeOver took place on May 29, 2014 at NXT's "home" arena, Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida and featured five matches as part of the main broadcast and one match prior to the televised portion of the show. The main event of the show was the first high-profile NXT Championship defense in Adrian Neville's title reign after winning the championship at NXT Arrival as he wrestled Tyson Kidd. The show also hosted the finals of a tournament for the vacant NXT Women's Championship as Charlotte, accompanied by her father Ric Flair faced off against Natalya accompanied by her uncle Bret Hart.

NXT TakeOver was the second live NXT show broadcast on the WWE Network, following NXT Arrival held in February 2014. The "NXT TakeOver" name would subsequently be used for NXT live shows held several times each year.

The NXT TakeOver show featured professional wrestling matches involving different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines that played out on the NXT television program prior to the show. Wrestlers portrayed faces (those who portray the "good guys") or heels (the "bad guys") as they followed a series of events that built tension and culminated in a match or a series of matches.
