Status of WWE Performance Center Shows After NXT’s Move to The CW

WWE is preparing for a lot of changes, and the NXT brand’s weekly show will look a lot different. The company spent a lot of money to turn the WWE Performance Center’s warehouse setting into the NXT Arena, but they are preparing to leave that setting soon.

The CW its new home on October 1, marking the first time since 2008 that the channel will have WWE programming. This will also include two big announced shows for October 1 and October 8 in Chicago and Saint Louis respectively.

Sean Ross Sapp noted on Fightful Select that they are told that Performance Center shows for NXT are not expected to be done. This will see NXT leave Orlando for their weekly shows, which has been the brand’s home since its inception, whether at Full Sail University or at the NXT Arena.

“We’re told that Performance Center shows for NXT are not expected to be done.”

CM Punk has already confirmed that he will be at NXT in Chicago on October 1. He had a good idea come to his mind after seeing Giulia’s debut on NXT. Meanwhile, Randy Orton will be in Saint Louis for the October 8 event.
