The WWE NXT crew has been affected by Hurricane Milton, which is causing major disruptions in Florida. After holding their NXT TV show in St. Louis, there is now uncertainty about next week’s taping of NXT at the WWE Performance Center.

Hurricane Milton is moving through the Gulf of Mexico toward Florida and is being labeled as a highly dangerous storm that could affect a large urban area. Although it was downgraded to a Category 4 storm early Tuesday, it still poses a significant threat to Florida, with a dangerous storm surge expected. Residents are preparing for the impact, getting ready for what could be a major event with serious consequences for many in the affected areas.

The October 8th episode of NXT held in Missouri was able to go on without a hitch but fans are now wondering whether next week’s show will actually even happen, considering the severity of Hurricane Milton.

Fightful Select reports that this week’s show went ahead as planned despite concerns about travel due to Hurricane Milton in Florida. However, there is uncertainty regarding next week’s NXT taping at the WWE Performance Center, with questions about whether it will proceed as scheduled.

Dave Meltzer has already reported that many NXT talent members are stuck in St. Louis for several days because flights to Orlando have been canceled due to the hurricane. This situation was unexpected, and the airport closure is expected to last for a while as the storm continues to create problems. The company had to postpone shows, as the hurricane complicated travel arrangements. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see whether WWE will be able to hold next week’s episode of NXT in the end, as nothing is guaranteed at the moment.

How might WWE handle future NXT tapings and travel logistics if Hurricane Milton continues to impact Florida, and what contingency plans could be put in place to avoid further disruptions? Let us know in the comments.
