NXT Clash of the Champions

Well, it may be a good show, but the name was a WCW's PPV name so...

Can NXT be the new WCW brand?

 

[Stopspot]

No. It won't be the new WCW.

NXT is the developmental system and is showing no signs of becoming anything else.

This themed episode which will air in two weeks is a tribute to the old ppv. Nothing more. It might become a re occuring thing but since NXT isn't on American TV I doubt it.

Off-topic: Could Smackdown become more of a WCW-type show? Would give people a reason to watch.

It could, sure maybe it's a good idea

Could you explain your definition of a WCW-type show?

I think he talks about a show like Monday Nitro

Raw and Smackdown basically feel like the same show, minus the blue ropes and the little bits-and-pieces of technical issues that comes from taping TV. Would be cool to see Smackdown take more production concepts from Nitro.

I see. It could definitely work, but I don't think Vince would give it a chance. Especially with the brand extension all but dead. I would actually enjoy having them be completely separate shows, with separate rosters, production, and announcers. That way you could alternate which brand gets a generic PPV, then have both brands appear on the big 4.

Yeah, production differences between Raw and SD would be good.
