Posted June 18, 20187 yr comment_5854245 So the long awaited UK project is going to be under the NXT umbrella with their own mens/womens/tag titles. Johnny Saint will be the on screen GM.
June 18, 20187 yr comment_5854249 I'm curious as to how they are going to manage it. Is it going to be a weekly show? Once every two weeks? Network excloosive?
June 18, 20187 yr comment_5854251 They announced two days of TV tapings, so it looks like a weekly show.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854299 They announced two days of TV tapings, so it looks like a weekly show. They announced four dates of tapings, each with two days.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854307 The interesting thing I haven't seen many people mention is that this is WWE NXT UK. Do they think that's more marketable than simply WWE UK?
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854314 I imagine Triple H or whoever is behind the scenes wants their brand on the product.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854316 Of course. But it's still a choice worth discussing. They obviously thought that would mean more than just WWE UK, which is the part I find interesting.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854320 I think one day the plan is to makes the brands not Raw and SD, but WWE and NXT. With a true rivalry between them. It's a slow build, for sure, but one day after Vince is gone.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854329 For the crowd they're trying to attract (the UK indie fans)? NXT is wayyyyy more valuable a brand than outright WWE.
June 19, 20187 yr comment_5854331 I suppose if you label it a WWE production you set the excpectations higher than what theyre going to reach. In terms of star power and production and scope its much more in line with NXT than WWE.
June 23, 20187 yr comment_5854807 The video on WWE's YouTube page https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zHo8HVIers is I believe the qualifying rounds of the tournament taped at the Download Festival a week ago? Anyway, I am not sure why this isn't uploaded on the network, or if it is on there I didn't see it.
