Behind the scenes news about how WWE produces NXT compared to mainstream shows

The process in which WWE produces shows with the main roster is very different from the way Triple H and his team write and produce NXT, according to Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

Meltzer noted that while RAW and SmackDown are famous for “rewriting the last day and driving the writers crazy” NXT it is being written and scheduled with long-term stories in mind and “there are almost never late changes” on the day of the show.

The few times in the past few months when NXT was forced to change the script at the last minute due to the talent being withdrawn as a result of COVID-19 or other reasons, Meltzer added.

As reported exclusively by Wrestling Inc., WWE has planned to create a new NXT show, which apparently would be a NXT minor alloy system. We also learned that WWE has been discussing a Mexican Lucha Libre series, which would be a NXT Mexico somehow.
