Night of Champions (2014) is an upcoming professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by IWE. It will take place on September 21, 2014 at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee. It will be the eighth event under the Night of Champions banner Night of Champions event.
The theme of the pay-per-view is that every current championship is defended on the card. This will be the first pay-per-view to feature the latest version of championship belts, which were introduced the night after SummerSlam, such as the new IWE logo on the IWE World Heavyweight Championship (while the Big Gold Belt was retired), whereas the other championship belts have minute modifications.
