WWE may be debuting a new NXT show in the future.
According to Fightful, there has been backstage discussions pertaining to a new NXT show.
WWE filmed a pilot for the show last summer at the WWE Performance Center. The show was pitched as “NXT Underground”, before the company came up with the idea of “RAW Underground”.
The idea was floated around last year, but not everyone was on board with the idea, which was tabled. There was a pilot for the event shot at the WWE Performance Center in Summer 2019, which would have been the setting of the event. We’re told it has long been a Ryan Katz project.
Ideas for the show have taken place as recent as last month, prior to the most recent COVID-19 outbreak. The latest discussions included utilizing new EVOLVE signings and unused NXT talent.
There could be more NXT content on the way soon. Fightful has learned that a once-pitched NXT product was at least in the planning stages in September, before the most recent outbreak.
