Earlier it was also revealed in a report by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter how WWE world be changing its recruitment policy. The company will now focus more on aesthetics than experience, teaching people who have the “right look” how to wrestle, instead of recruiting from the indie circuit. They are leaving the latter to AEW.
When Will These NXT Changes Officially Come Into Play?
The revamp is set to be officially announced on the 14th or 21st September episode of Wednesday Night NXT. However, these are only first of the many changes WWE has in store for the brand. The company is planning to make NXT a developmental brand yet again for new talent to perform and showcase their skills to earn a spot in the WWE main roster. That being so, tryouts are already in process.
NXT has reportedly taped the next three episodes, so it will probably make some upgrades to the brand upon its return to live TV. As of now, the Universe seems a bit skeptical regarding the psychedelic look of the logo, because NXT’s overall aesthetic has always been dark. This is way too much of an extreme departure from its past look, considering when the main changes will concern the talent the brand will now choose to push.
