NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool was a 2019 professional wrestling livestreaming event produced by the American promotion WWE. It was the inaugural NXT UK TakeOver event, as well as the first NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool, and took place on 12 January 2019 at the Empress Ballroom in Blackpool, Lancashire, England. The event aired exclusively on the WWE Network and was held for wrestlers from the promotion's NXT UK brand division.

Five matches were contested at the event. In the main event, Pete Dunne retained the WWE United Kingdom Championship against Joe Coffey in what would be his final successful title defence of his 685-day reign. After the match, Walter made his debut and attacked Coffey before having a stare-down with Dunne. Other matches included Zack Gibson and James Drake defeating Moustache Mountain to become the inaugural NXT UK Tag Team Champions, Toni Storm defeated Rhea Ripley to win the NXT UK Women's Championship, and Finn Bálor, who made a surprise appearance to replace an injured Travis Banks, defeating Jordan Devlin.
