2016 will be over in just a couple of weeks, and January 2017 will bring the Royal Rumble and the Road to WrestleMania 33. Tickets for the biggest show of the year have been on sale for a while, and we already knew that the jam-packed WrestleMania week will feature a new structure, with NXT’s TakeOver event happening on Saturday night, the day before WrestleMania itself. But now we’ve got official confirmation, and an official name, as WWE has announced NXT TakeOver: Orlando for April 1.
