WWE has announced Bridgeport, Connecticut’s Webster Bank Arena as the host venue for the NXT Takeover special that will be held on Saturday, June 1. Tickets for the event go on sale on Friday morning.
Powell’s POV: The original plan was for NXT Takeover to be held on June 8 in San Jose, California, but that changed when the company announced its return to Saudi Arabia for June 7. Capacity for the Webster Bank Arena is listed as 10,000.
