Former UFC Fighter coming to WWE?, huge plans for NXT next year

Will NXT start touring?

– NXT has been the fundamental property that is a huge part of what a wrestler does in the WWE main roster.

NXT has seen many stars such as Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, Bray Wyatt to name a few who are WWE main eventers currently. NXT also has a variety of excellent wrestlers such as Finn Balor, Apollo Crews, Bayley who not only have immense in ring talent but exude a lot of charisma too.

WWE’s developmental territory FCW was rebranded to NXT featuring upcoming wrestlers. NXT which is solely run by Triple H has showcased amazing matches and feuds on a consistent basis.

It is currently based at the Full Sail Studios in Florida, which has a loyal fanbase. WWE have currently held talks with the WWN, which is a parent company of EVOLVE Wrestling. There have been a lot of talks that NXT might be a full-fledged touring brand come 2017.

WE have been steadily building a working relationship with the WWN and there is a talk that WWN would fill in the void left by NXT after it starts touring. There is this agenda that the NXT stars who need to brush up their skills before touring full time will wrestle with WWN – with the WWE taking care of their finance.

The idea is for the WWN to become the developmental territory for the WWE once NXT start touring. The idea is in the pipeline, but as of now things are moving slowly and steadily. It looks like 2016 will be one hell of a year for NXT.

– Speaking about EVOLVE Wrestling, former UFC fighter Matt Riddle has joined EVOLVE and has been wrestling there as he hones his in-ring skills.

It is believed that the WWE helped Riddle to get bookings with EVOLVE wrestling which opens up a lot of possibilities about Riddle coming to the WWE. It was believed that the WWE wanted to audition Riddle and thus actively pursued to find him a job at EVOLVE Wrestling.

Riddle has all that it takes to make the cut for the WWE. Fans have been excited about his look, his athletic ability and it is also a big plus that he is a huge pro wrestling fan.
