At this time, WWE is planning to bring NXT to US TV in the fall. The idea is to use the show as a transitional product; similar to how the ECW on SyFy show was used in the end (introducing new talent to TV before they moved onto RAW or SmackDown).

The other reason that they are looking to get the show on TV is that a one-hour WWE show could make the company up to $100,000 a week in TV rights fees.

awesome, hopefully it'll be on a channel I have.

According to sources, WWE has interest in putting the NXT show on the air in the United States by this fall. The show currently available on the XBOX, in Canada and overseas. One source stated the company was in talks about landing the show on Syfy, the current home of SmackDown and the former home of NXT when WWE phased out the weekly ECW television show.

The format would stay close to how they tape shows currently at Full Sail University featuring developmental wrestlers along with established WWE talent that are brought in for special appearances. The thought process behind getting a television deal for NXT makes sense for WWE in that if they continue to put out tons of hours of weekly television and get paid for it in what was described as the only "real place where money is made these days."

That's good, I hope they don't change it too much.

Yeah I think the current format is good.

I'd watch the show for sure.
