A new NXT TV show is being heavily discussed, first reported by Wrestling Inc. and confirmed by our Dave Meltzer.

The initial report said that Paul "HHH" Levesque has assembled a team to oversee the show, headed up by former EVOLVE co-founder Gabe Sapolsky. The show would focus on those trying to get on to the primary NXT roster in an effort to get the less experienced Performance Center talents the in-ring work they need.

Sapolsky tweeted, "Things get way overblown."

Meltzer said the show has been discussed for quite some time, but there is nothing official as of this point. Wrestling Inc. reported that the show was initially targeted for early-2021 but that has been delayed due to the pandemic.

With the pandemic shutting down NXT's various tours, the show would help fill the void left by the the smaller market shows (i.e, the Florida "Coconut Loop" events) NXT frequently has run in the past as there's no certainty when they could return.

It's assumed this would be for the WWE Network.

Huh, kinda thought this was more news about the rumored NXT India when I read the headline but with Gabe involved then I assume this will be more like an EVOLVE....which kinda brings me to question why they don't just let EVOLVE keep doing what they were doing and put more of their shows on the Network :lol Report doesn't really seem to know shit tho, so that very well could essentially be what this is....NXT getting their own NXT :proud

Last thing I'm asking for at this point is another WWE television program. :lol

I'd be much more in favor of just broadcasting EVOLVE on the Network.

Yeah, I rather we just have EVOLVE as a thing, over more fucking WWE Programming. I mean, hell I honestly don't even care when I miss a show nowadays. Just give me some damn Evolve
