Shawn Michaels teases what's in store for NXT's CW Network premiere.
NXT will begin a new era on October 1st, as the show will make its premiere on the CW Network with a special episode that will be held at Allstate Arena in Chicago. CM Punk, The Miz, and other stars are set to appear, while the show will also feature multiple title matches, including Giulia challenging Roxanne Perez for the NXT Women's Championship.
Speaking with the Chicago Tribune, WWE Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative Shawn Michaels discussed NXT's upcoming show in Chicago.
“Certainly we want to make a big splash on the CW Network. We’ll have some big changes, but I think more of that will be from a look and physical standpoint. We will still be what NXT is, which is bringing some of the most talented, young, diverse athletes in all of the nation, and developing them into the WWE superstars of tomorrow. The hunger, the passion that’s always been the core value of NXT is always going to be there. But certainly we’ll try to put on some pretty cool bells and whistles for the CW launch on Oct. 1," Michaels said.
