NXT TakeOver: Vengeance Day

The 2011 Vengeance was the eighth Vengeance professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE. It took place on October 23, 2011, at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas. It was the first Vengeance held since 2007 and also the last until 2021 when Vengeance was rebranded as an NXT TakeOver event titled Vengeance Day. The 2011 Vengeance replaced Bragging Rights. Vengeance was dropped the following year in favor of only holding one PPV during October, Hell in a Cell. The event garnered 121,000 buys, down from 137,000 buys the previous year's Bragging Rights.

Nine matches were contested at the event, including one on the pre-show. In the main event, Alberto Del Rio defeated John Cena in a last man standing match to retain the WWE Championship. In other prominent matches, World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry fought Big Show to a no contest, Randy Orton defeated WWE Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes in a non-title match, and The Awesome Truth (The Miz and R-Truth) defeated CM Punk and Triple H.
