Sportskeeda's Riju Dasgupta had first reported about WWE's plans for NXT India. There has been a lot of buzz about it, even though it isn't official just yet.

According to Post Wrestling, the shooting for WWE's India special will reportedly take place on January 22nd:

Female superstar says she inspired John Cena turning heel HERE

"As of Thursday morning, we were told by one person that there is a shooting date listed on the calendar for Friday, January 22nd with the calendar stating, “India Special”. There was also a photoshoot this week for the Indian talent to take updated photos. The exact introduction of the India project remains to be seen once WWE makes a formal announcement. We had heard from multiple people that the expectations were for the program to be a series, and that does appear to be the strategy. One person close to the situation indicated that it could begin with a one or two-night event to kick things off. On the surface, that sounds close to the model for NXT UK where it began with a two-night tournament in January 2017 prior to the implementation of the weekly series."

We hope this is true because it's a big market for WWE to tap in to, even if the tapings take place in the United States. Since NXT UK has been established for a while, it's a good next step to take for WWE.
