NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn was a 2015 professional wrestling livestreaming event produced by WWE, held exclusively for wrestlers from the promotion's developmental territory, NXT. It was the sixth NXT TakeOver event and the inaugural TakeOver: Brooklyn. It took place on Saturday, August 22, 2015, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York and aired exclusively on the WWE Network.

This was the first night of what was billed as a WWE "triple-header" at the arena, with the main roster's SummerSlam taking place the following evening and Raw the night after that.

There were two main events for the show: a ladder match for the NXT Championship with reigning champion Finn Bálor defending the title against former champion Kevin Owens, and a singles match for the NXT Women's Championship, where Sasha Banks defended her title against Bayley. A match for the NXT Tag Team Championship was also part of the show with The Vaudevillains (Aiden English and Simon Gotch) capturing the championship.

The show also marked the TakeOver debut of Apollo Crews, who defeated Tye Dillinger. The event is best remembered for the NXT Women's Championship match between Sasha Banks...
