WWE NXT MOVING TV FULL TIME TO THE PERFORMANCE CENTER

 



WWE will be spending some time and money in upgrading the Performance Center over the next month as it will be the long-term home of future NXT TV shows. NXT's relationship with Full Sail University is now over, ending a partnership that began in 2012 and was expanded in 2019. It's unknown if NXT will still continue to use Full Sail students.

The reason NXT is taping three episodes next week at the Performance Center is due to the upgrades and changes, explained in storyline by Karrion Kross and Samoa Joe's brawl last Wednesday that destroyed parts of the arena.


The belief is the show looks too dark on TV so the goals are to make the studio brighter with more lights and more color. Additionally, the plexiglass around ringside may be removed as well.

This aligns with changes coming to the brand, both from a visual and philosophical standpoint. Along with the 'no more midgets, no one starting in their 30s and people who can be box office attractions and main characters' being part of the changes since the feeling is that they lost the war (with AEW).
