3) The Plans For NXT
According to Mike Johnson of PWinsider, NXT will be going back live starting on September 14th. This comes after a string of taped shows.
Here is what Johnson wrote:
For those who have asked about WWE NXT as they pre-taped several weeks, the series will return to live broadcasts as of 9/14.
WWE has live NXT episodes scheduled weekly going forward at that point.
My Take:
- Good to hear that they are going back live. The show just isn’t the same when it isn’t live.
