With the continued success of WWE NXT, there have been preliminary talks about taking the brand’s WWE Network show live on a weekly basis. The news comes courtesy of Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio. The move would involve several logistical hurdles, most notably the added cost of talent coordination and shooting another live weekly show. There is also some skepticism regarding how much of an impact the move would have on Network subscribers. WWE currently tapes 3-4 weeks of NXT television from Full Sail University every month or so and there are risks associated with altering this formula.
There’s no doubt that 2016 was a banner year for NXT. In addition to the group holding live events in new markets domestically and internationally, the quarterly Takeover specials have become one of the highlights of WWE’s “big 4” weekends. Tickets go on sale this Friday for the first #NXTRoadTrip of 2017 and the next NXT Takeover event is scheduled for Royal Rumble weekend.
