sek69 Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KawadaSmile Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 They announced two days of TV tapings, so it looks like a weekly show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwegian Rudo Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 They announced two days of TV tapings, so it looks like a weekly show. They announced four dates of tapings, each with two days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 I imagine Triple H or whoever is behind the scenes wants their brand on the product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loss Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimmas Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laz Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 For the crowd they're trying to attract (the UK indie fans)? NXT is wayyyyy more valuable a brand than outright WWE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabs Posted June 19, 2018 Report Share Posted June 19, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDuke Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
