NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn II was the 11th NXT TakeOver and second TakeOver: Brooklyn professional wrestling livestreaming event produced by WWE. It was held exclusively for wrestlers from the promotion's NXT brand division. The event aired exclusively on the WWE Network and took place on August 20, 2016, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York as part of that year's SummerSlam weekend.

Eight matches were contested at the event, including two taped for future episodes of NXT. In the main event, Shinsuke Nakamura defeated Samoa Joe to capture the NXT Championship. The event is notable for the in-ring debuts of Ember Moon and Bobby Roode. It was also Bayley's last match in NXT before she was moved to the main roster on the Raw brand.
