This Tuesday, October 1, WWE NXT will make its long-awaited debut on The CW after a five-year tenure as part of the USA Network. Expectations are high for the gold brand as it embarks on this new chapter, and fans can look forward to content rated TV-14, according to The CW’s official listings.


In 2022, it was reported that WWE would be moving Monday Night RAW from PG to a TV-14 rating, a decision said to have been made by the USA Network. Shortly after though, it was clarified that WWE had decided not to change Raw’s rating with the decision being down to not wanting to cause any issues with the show’s advertising partners.

TV-14 shows contain material parents may find unsuitable for children under the age of 14. The FCC’s official warning is that “parents are cautioned to exercise some care in monitoring this program and are cautioned against letting children under the age of 14 watch unattended.” These materials may range from suggestive dialogue, profanity, sexual situations or intense violence.

The premiere of WWE NXT will take place on October 1, from the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois. The card for the show so far is as follows.

  • Ethan Page (c) vs. Trick Williams (WWE NXT Championship, CM Punk as guest referee)
  • Roxanne Perez (c) vs. Giulia (WWE NXT Women’s Championship)
  • Wes Lee vs. Zachary Wentz (Street Fight)
  • Lola Vice & Jaida Parker vs. Two members of Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley, Jacy Jayne, Jazmyn Nyx)
