WWE to Broadcast 10/8 NXT Episode on Tape Delay in St. Louis

The October 1 edition of NXT marked a significant debut as the show aired on the CW Network for the first time, and fans were treated to a night of memorable moments. With NXT continuing its road tour, next week’s episode on October 8th will take place at The Factory in Chesterfield, Missouri, located in the St. Louis market. However, it appears that fans in St. Louis will be watching the show on a tape delay.

According to local listings, the CW Network’s St. Louis affiliate, KPLR Channel 11, has opted to air local news during NXT’s usual broadcast slot. As a result, the show will be aired on a tape delay, running from 9 to 11 PM instead of its usual 8 PM timeslot. This delay may alter the viewing experience for St. Louis fans, though the excitement for the show remains high.

The October 8th edition of NXT promises to be packed with action, including Randy Orton’s return to the ring, as well as several championship matches and a special appearance by rapper Sexyy Red. Despite the tape delay, fans can expect a thrilling night of wrestling.

Full WWE NXT Card for October 8:

• NXT North American Championship: Oba Femi (c) vs. Tony D’Angelo
• NXT Tag Team Championships: Fraxiom (Nathan Frazer & Axiom) (c) vs. A-Town Down Under (Grayson Waller & Austin Theory)
• Randy Orton vs. Je’Von Evans
• Sexyy Red appearance
• Bianca Belair, Jade Cargill & Kelani Jordan vs. Fatal Influence

With a stacked card and Randy Orton in action, fans are eager to see if the October 8th edition of NXT can match the success of the CW Network premiere. Whether watching live or on tape delay, it’s shaping up to be an exciting night for NXT fans.
