WWE Developing A New NXT Show

[Norrin Radd]

NXT within NXT

Paul "Triple H" Levesque has created a team to oversee a new NXT show, which apparently would be an NXT minor leagues system.

Gabe Sapolsky is leading the team. Levesque has given him several agents and writers to help him get more comfortable with writing television. Levesque is a big believer in Sapolsky, and this is said to be a case of Levesque giving him the ball.

The idea is to create a show that was described to me as an "NXT for NXT".

The biggest challenge has been to format the concept for TV. The original idea was for this to be akin to another promotion running in some of the smaller tier markets that NXT serviced. However, with house shows likely to not return, they are making it just a TV series.

The goal was for the show to launch in early 2021, but it has been delayed before and probably will again.

They lowkey kind of need this with all the extra bodies they have in NXT just doing nothing but appearing as extras in shyt like Raw Underground.

Why create another show if you’re able struggling to handle the ones that you have currently

If you’re going to do it, then keep it off TV.

This is moronic. Plus it sounds like sapolsky went to become a stooge.

So this will be the good NXT while NXT continues on its trajectory of being Raw lite.

When Adam Cole Huxtable moves away from an Undisputed position to navigate an undiscovered sea of talent, he will realize dealing with a new bunch of misfits won't be that easy as it seems.

Check it out this summer on A Different NXT.

*Cue cheesy music*

So basically what NXT is supposed to be in the first place?

UE, Gargano, and Ciampa gon' retire in NXT

 

[SpacelySprockets]

Well they do have a bunch of PC recruits doing absolutely nothing because NXT is too busy catering to established names being a fake 3rd brand just to get spanked by AEW. Prioritizing indy stars over their homegrown talent was always a thing but they at least made up for it with house shows which isn't a option anymore due to the pandemic.

Its a necessary move for the sake of developing their talent, but I don't see the point of putting it on television when they literally have the WWE Network for that. Then again with Gabe involved and them talking about it being akin to another promotion, this is probably just Evolve with another name

I thought NXT was just a humble little development league though?

 

[Jello Biafra]

They need to have a better hook for the new show than just "NXT for NXT" because that sounds stupid.

[Uncle Phil 36]

Guess a lot of guys are gonna peak at NXT now

This Should Be Like AEW Dark, Put It On YouTube And Don’t Acknowledge It

It must’ve been years ago, but I think I remember Triple H mentioning he wanted something like a minor league system like baseball where NXT would be AAA and they’d have A and AA organizations for those not ready for NXT. This might be it
