WWE President Nick Khan Confirms Major Changes Are Being Made To NXT

A few weeks ago WWE released a number of talents from the NXT brand, and it was later reported that NXT would be going through some major changes. It’s rumored that moving forward the brand will be focusing on younger, bigger talents, and it sounds like NXT will also be re-branded.

WWE President and Chief Revenue Officer Nick Khan recently spoke to BT Sport about the changes coming to NXT, and he noted that in the coming weeks the brand will have a whole new look and new feel.

“We are doing a complete revamp on NXT, led by Triple H, who is really one of the architects of the original NXT. What we found — it’s part of why we did the tryout yesterday — what we want to make sure is easy for folks who want to be WWE Superstars, is figuring out how to become WWE Superstars.”

“In terms of an NXT re-brand, look for it in the next couple of weeks. It’s going to have a whole new look, it’s going to have a whole new feel — and we believe — because of a lot of the indie wrestlers, if you will, have come through our system and are in our system with SmackDown and RAW now. We don’t want to just keep doing that same thing, we want to look elsewhere for great, young talent.”

Stay tuned for more updates on NXT’s new direction as they become available.
