The WWE NXT crew is slated to have a week off from doing live television for its weekly Tuesday night program on the USA Network from the Performance Center.
Shows
The brand is coming off last Sunday’s Vengeance Day PLE that was capped off by Carmelo Hayes turning heel by attacking Trick Williams. Matches set for next week’s show include NXT Tag Team Champions The Family (Tony D’Angelo & Stacks) vs. Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic winners The Wolf Dogs (Bron Breakker & Baron Corbin), Von Wagner & Mr. Stone vs. Noam Dar & Oro Mensah, Kiana James vs. Brinley Reece, and Adriana Rizzo vs. Jaida Parker.
Reason
Next Tuesday’s WWE NXT will be a double taping, producing content for two episodes as the February 13th episode will be live before taping the following week’s show.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported the reason the show is being taped is because there are tryouts in Perth, Australia. The key NXT people will be leaving before the February 20th show.
WWE is going to Perth for the Elimination Chamber PLE. NXT will resume live shows on February 27th.
