The WWE NXT Battleground 2024 Premium Live Event held at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday, June 9, was undoubtedly a memorable affair, featuring a lineup of thrilling matches and notable appearances from UFC legends. However, behind the scenes, some NXT Superstars expressed frustration with the floor spacing at the venue.
Despite the absence of any major incidents, Wrestle Votes took to Twitter to report that several Superstars were displeased with the tighter floor spacing around the ring compared to standard WWE/NXT events. This tighter configuration raised concerns among the wrestlers, although thankfully, it did not result in any significant issues during the event.
“While thankfully nothing came of it, I’m told a handful of Superstars were unhappy with the floor spacing around the ring last night at the UFC Apex for Battleground. It was noticeably tighter than at standard WWE/NXT events.”
The show featured some incredible moments, including Roxanne Perez defeating Jordynne Grace, Ash By Elegance making her shocking return at the Premium Live Event and many more, but not everything was well received.
Despite the challenges posed by the venue’s layout, the NXT Superstars delivered an exceptional performance, showcasing their talents and entertaining the audience throughout the night. Their dedication and professionalism ensured that the show proceeded smoothly, leaving fans impressed and appreciative of the effort put forth by all involved.
