PaperThinWalls Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 It's been off the last few months, but I attribute that to the taping schedule. NXT's overall track record speaks for itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepia Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 No, my main concern is that the rest of the world do not have USA Network and don't want NXT to be taken away from the WWE network and my little routine on wednesday nights and/or thursday mornings.

Bushy. Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 No, my main concern is that the rest of the world do not have USA Network and don't want NXT to be taken away from the WWE network and my little routine on wednesday nights and/or thursday mornings. Didnt even think of that. That sucks. Hopefully they announce an alternative or resolution to the USA move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestInTheWorld614 Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 NXT will probably still be put on Hulu and worse case they will upload it 30 days later on the Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abhunter Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 So NXT is no longer a developmental brand then. Its just the 3rd brand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey D. Jiggy Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Yeah, I'm going to assume NXT will go downhill. A knee jerk reaction if I ever saw one. The direction of the show will be with beating AEW and getting ratings in mind. None of that was an issue as a Network-show. So the ulterior motives will undoubtedly *Censored* things up.

So the ulterior motives will undoubtedly *Censored* things up. Also... -Commercials breaking up the matches. -Sponsors and Network execs wanting specific things. -Inability to edit out mistakes or add a layer of polish to the tapings. -Simply finding enough engaging-content to fill a whole second hour.

Generations Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Didn't even think about Mauro and his health. He says he'll be doing the announcing live every week...but hopefully he doesn't over-tax himself. An hour of taped show is much less stressful than two of live.

Guest Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Mauro will be fine as long as he doesn't work with assholes like JBL again. And WWE is okay with giving him a break whenever he needs it, he's missed tapings before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeb ★ Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Oh wow It'd be really cool imo if they added NXT to the "brand warfare" in Survivor Series, but what would they do for Takeover the previous night? Just have the Champions double duty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motown Saint Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Like the old saying goes: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Just keep doing what works right now with NXT. And if does something stupid, bash his stupid head in with a wrench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmerc Posted August 21, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Why? Why will it be added? Or why not? Make sense... the show is now on the same network as RAW and SmackDown. Happy to consider otherwise if people prefer it in its own thread... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creepia Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Why? Because I like it being its own thread? Idk how to explain why I like something, I just do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Maybe hold off a few weeks and see how the new version of NXT feels? I mean...I think it will still have enough of its own identity that merging it with the normal show discussion might not be appropriate...but I guess we really won't know if it feels like a normal WWE brand until a few episodes in.
