5 Ways WWE can make PPVs more interesting going forward

#1 Showcase NXT on the kickoff show

Aleister Black is the current NXT champion

For those who don’t watch kickoff shows, here’s what you’re missing: Booker T, Sam Roberts and David Otunga give their PPV predictions to Renee Young; somebody begrudgingly answers questions in the ‘social media lounge’; fans shout “Wooo!” as loud as they can; and there’s a largely meaningless match 10 minutes before the PPV starts.

In short, kickoff shows are handy for casual viewers but totally pointless for fans who regularly tune into Raw and SmackDown Live on a weekly basis, so it’s about time WWE freshened up the kickoff show, particularly the end-of-broadcast match, to give die-hard viewers something they’ve not seen before.

An ‘NXT showcase’ match every month, with an NXT Superstar taking on a Raw or SmackDown Live Superstar, would serve as a good opportunity for the next generation of main-roster performers to compete in front of a PPV audience, and it would be a lot more interesting for fans compared to what we see now!
