WWE announces NXT No Mercy for September

NXT is heading to California for an upcoming streaming special.

During a media call on Thursday, Shawn Michaels announced that NXT No Mercy will take place from Bakersfield, California on Saturday, September 30. The show is being held at Mechanics Bank Arena and will stream live on Peacock/WWE Network.

Tickets for NXT No Mercy are going on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. Pacific time on Friday, August 4. A ticket pre-sale will begin at 10 a.m. Pacific on Wednesday, August 2.

This is the first time WWE has used the No Mercy name for an event since 2017. No Mercy originated in 1999 and ran through 2008 before later returning as a pay-per-view name in 2016 and 2017.

No Mercy was also the name of WWE’s critically acclaimed video game for Nintendo 64 that was released in 2000.

Starting at the beginning of this year, all of NXT’s streaming specials have returned to taking place on the road instead of being held at the WWE Performance Center. NXT will be in Cedar Park, Texas for the Great American Bash this Sunday (July 30).
