Sounds fun, but I fear that it might become too much eventually.

As much as I absolutely love the NXT live events, putting them monthly sounds like a bad idea. Maybe once every two months would be good as it still gives time to develop storylines- something that NXT does better than on the main roster.

Now can they keep the quality up or does it become glorified WWE main roster PPV quality?

I'm sure half of the main events will be good but I'm not entirely sure this is a good idea.

I'm thinking they should go bi-monthly.. the whole thing about these NXT specials is the crazy hype in between each of them.. Idk, monthly could be cool but it could also go badly.

eh... not really hyped for this. One of my favorite things about Takeover was the fact they had some time in between thus you could develop stories better. Bad move

Bi-monthly at the least. It might work well for a bit to begin with but it'll ruin it after awhile on a month by month basis.

We'll see about that
I'm certain.

NXT is one hour long. They will have to rush a lot of booking just to establish a proper amount of matches for every special, nevermind making them good.

I'd rather they just moved to doing the show live every week instead of pre-recorded for a few weeks at a time.

Dayumn, I really want to exclude that possibility of them rushing stuff and keep being optimistic that it won't affect the show.

I'm not gonna judge yet, though. Gonna wait till I see it.
