WWE's next big NXT TakeOver event, In Your House, goes down this Sunday night (7 June), and will likely be headlined by Adam Cole defending his NXT Championship against Velveteen Dream for the second time in recent weeks.

It comes with the stipulation that Dream will never be allowed to challenge for the belt again in the event of a defeat. On top of this, the bout is expected to take place outwith the Performance Center's confines, with William Regal declaring he would find an alternative location befitting the competitors, the title, and the occasion.

Fightful has come through with a new report on how the tapings went down, stating that Dream vs. Cole was filmed outdoors, in the evening, with a bunch of cars surrounding the wrestlers as they fought. The vehicles' headlights were used to illuminate what sounds like another big cinematic match though the developmental wrestlers gathered to generate crowd noise weren't best pleased about the situation, as poor weather delayed the taping from 7pm until past midnight.

Either way, it sounds like WWE is on the verge of delivering another unique, cinematic encounter at TakeOver: In Your House.
