As expected, their new network home is keen on ensuring that the spotlight remains firmly on them, and they’re pulling out all the stops to make a major impact. The CW wants to know what makes fans love NXT, so they’re going to find out.

NXT is set to kick off its new journey on the CW on Tuesday, October 1, at 8 p.m. ET. To add even more excitement, live arena shows will feature special appearances by WWE Superstars CM Punk in Chicago and Randy Orton in St. Louis on October 8, making the move even more enticing for fans.

Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select reported that representatives from The CW were spotted outside the WWE Performance Center before the show, interviewing fans. While it’s unclear exactly what they were asking, it’s likely they are gathering material to ramp up their promotional efforts for NXT’s launch on the network.

The move to The CW is a promising one for WWE. According to Variety, a source close to the deal has pegged its value at around $20 million to $25 million per year as part of a five-year contract. This lucrative agreement could provide a major boost to NXT’s exposure and visibility, ensuring it gets the attention it deserves.
