In recent weeks, WWE has been notably focusing more on finding and signing new wrestlers from around the world, according to PWInsider.com. This increased attention on international talent has led to talk within the company that WWE is making serious preparations to launch its long-awaited NXT Europe brand later this year.
This potential European expansion follows several recent international recruitment efforts by WWE. These include the UK Tryouts held during the company’s European tour in March 2025, which reportedly led to WWE showing strong interest in signing talents like Spanish wrestler Zozaya, France’s Aigle Blanc, and Italy’s Mike D. Vecchio, among others.
The idea of NXT Europe has been discussed for some time, with WWE looking to create a new developmental territory based in the region. This would aim to find and train the next generation of European WWE Superstars, giving them a platform to grow.
If NXT Europe launches in 2025, it would be a big step in WWE’s global plans. It would also provide many talented wrestlers from across Europe with a clearer path to a WWE career. The company is expected to confirm more official news on NXT Europe as plans are finalized.
