Voting

'A pro cannot vote for or against their own rookie'.... how does that make sense? Any vote for someone else is effectively a vote against their own rookie...so unless all the pros are abstaining from every vote, this phrase needs rewording. -66.190.87.192 (talk) 17:34, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

True, but that's how the WWE words it, so that's what they have to go with. Kjscotte34 (talk) 17:40, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WWE NXT Set

Should a picture of the NXT set be added? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.110.70.30 (talk) 23:05, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a/or know of a free picture that could be used.--Steam Iron 02:59, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Future of the Rookies

Does anyone know what would happen to the NXT Rookies that will lose the competition? Are they going back to FCW? Are they gonna be free agents?--Yugiohmike2001 (talk) 22:01, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WWE has not said anything as of this time. Anything anyone says is purely speculation (which is not allowed on Wikipedia). Feedback ^☎ 23:16, 7 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Competions

Should the competions that have aired on WWE NXT: Obstical Race 1, Beer Keg Race, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Challenge, Selling Programs, Obstical Race 2 and any other competion(s) that haven't aired as of yet, be listed in the article and listed of who placed where in each competion? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.115.109.147 (talk) 05:31, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Scripted

Is there any information on if the polls are real or scripted? What about the compititions? --24.103.173.3 (talk) 03:09, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since this is WWE, NXT is rigged.--Yugiohmike2001 (talk) 03:10, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

SPECULATION! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.243.163.193 (talk) 02:30, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Separate the seasons into their own articles?

I think we need to separate the seasons from the main page into their own articles. The reason is because the buzz Season 1's getting over the past few weeks. Does anyone agree?--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 23:34, 22 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'd totally love the idea and have attempted to make for the last couple of months. However, I'm trying to think of a way to make them without turning it simply into a list of results (that alone would eventually lead to results pages for Raw, SmackDown etc., which I don't think WP:PW aren't particularly fans of) and instead make it a in-depth overview of the contest itself as well as featuring an aftermath section, which would have stuff on the Nexus. -- Θaks ter 08:24, 23 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"The Showtime Percy Watson Show"

Since "The Showtime Percy Watson Show" aired on Tuesday, July 13, 2010 on an episode of "WWE NXT," shouldn't there be a headline in the article called "Recurring Segments" and put "The Showtime Percy Watson Show" under the "Recurring Segments" headline? Gibsonj338 (talk) 16:31, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was a one-time deal for Percy, he might have it back if he wins NXT. So, no, not right now.--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 17:01, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"The VIP Lounge"

Since "The VIP Lounge" aired on Tuesday, July 20, 2010 on an episode of "WWE NXT," shouldn't there be a headline in the article called "Recurring Segments" and put "The VIP Lounge" under the "Recurring Segments" headline? Gibsonj338 (talk) 05:55, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

One time doesn't make it recurring. -- Θak5ter 07:19, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Will Syfy cancel WWE NXT?

Will Syfy cancel WWE NXT? AdamDeanHall (talk) 21:23, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, no. I think Cole, Mathews, Striker and/or Valence might announce that NXT is moving from SyFy to a new channel.--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 21:26, 30 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Vickie and Maryse are not Pros on NXT Season 4

Quit adding them as pros. In the opening, it list just Ted Dibiase and Dolph Ziggler as the pros for Saxton and Clay. K211 (talk) 12:31, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, Vickie and Maryse are on the WWE NXT roster with their respective others and are Pros for the rookies.--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 17:07, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Season 3 theme

Why won't you mention that NXT used a different theme, "You Make the Rain Fall" by Kevin Rudolf, to open the show? They've clearly used that theme instead of "Wild and Young".--Geekboy6 (talk) 00:53, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's already mentioned in "Production".--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 02:21, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No more pros?

With Chavo Guerrero released and Danyel Bryan disowning Derrick Bateman only Titus O'Nell had a pro. However on 9/27 Horny announces he will no longer be a part of NXT; here is the details from http://miss-april.org/ "Hornswoggle walks down the hall and he sees AJ with Titus and Hornswoggle does not want to hear anything they are saying. He hands the note to Titus and Titus reads the note. The note says that Maxine cannot break them up. Hornswoggle says that AJ is a positive thing in his life but Hornswoggle is done with NXT and he is off to Smackdown. Maybe they will meet again. Hornswoggle shakes Titus and AJ’s hands and leaves. AJ asks Titus if Hornswoggle knows that she is on Smackdown." Also in the main page JTG and Tyson Kidd are listed as pros for Young and Bateman respectively but they are wrestling in a tag team dynamic not a pro-rookie; if so that would make Percy Watson Titus O' Neil pro since he wrestles with him and is obviously not part of the contest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.165.211.203 (talk) 05:39, 1 October 2011 (UTC) another source http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/wwenxtreport/article_53732.shtml — Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.165.211.203 (talk) 05:51, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NXT Redemption ending in October 19?

Is that really true? I don't see any sources for it. --Schortman (talk) 17:33, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Week 59

I'm wondering why we have a new column for April 18. Darren and Titus weren't said to be eliminated due to being on Smackdown. NXT competitors have been featured on Raw and Smackdown shows before while still being in competition. Notably when David Otunga hosted Raw while being an NXT competitor, or when Darren Young was on Smackdown accompanying CM Punk's SES. I'm thinking maybe that column should be removed since nobody got eliminated? Am also wondering if we should be adding guys like Johnny Curts or pointing out that they pretty much forgot about the competition? Y12J (talk) 00:38, 22 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

De-linking being the same as removing

Looks like all WWE did was take NXT off the schedule. Everything about the show is still found on the WWE Website. All they did was take it off the banner, meaning it implies more to the fact they are probably not airing it yet because they want to find another place for it. I can't really see how any website can report something as "removed everything NXT" when with a simple search i can go to NXT's page, scroll to the NXT roster on the superstars section, watch all the past episodes on the site. Seems to me like that reporter did next to no research or has a terrible way of describing what he saw. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.171.176.200 (talk) 18:04, 20 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

season 6 is no competition

season 6 is not a competition. needs fixing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.60.84.9 (talk) 05:06, 25 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

NXT Championship

I think it's time for an article to be created. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edge4life42 (talk • contribs) 03:42, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Split Article

I propose a split in this article due to its length and different format. I think we should have a separate article containing the history of NXT in general while keeping the rest of the article on this main article. Another words, I think we should eliminate the "Seasons" section here and move it to a history article. We should instead have "History" section on this main article BRIEFLY stating NXT's history and have above it say: "Main article: History of WWE NXT".

Any of you agree? I may propose this split officially soon. Srsrox (talk) 00:10, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have gone ahead and proposed it due to the sheer length and confusion of this article. Please read my reasons why above. Srsrox (talk) 14:53, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I completely agree, the new NXT is a completly different show from WWE, also the WWE changed the name of FCW to NXT Wrestling meaning that NXT also is a the name of the wrestling promotion. A new article should be made instead of being labled as season six Kerbymanuel (talk) 01:05, 3 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm gonna go ahead and try to move the "Reality" part of the article to the new proposed article "History of NXT" and leave this article for the current Sports entertainment show that's airing on Hulu Plus Kerbymanuel (talk) 04:06, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think by doing this this is a great idea, Seasons 1-5 were the old NXT and season 6 is the new NXT. I say make the spilt happen!--Keith Okamoto (talk) 04:09, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hold up! This is not what was agreed upon. Why did this page moved to a project page when it was agreed on to create a History of WWE NXT page for the WWE NXT page. I don't get it.--Keith Okamoto (talk) 06:31, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Damn, this is definitely messy. Argh! Starship.paint (talk) 09:55, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All involved are invited to participate in a discussion regarding the status of the three NXT articles in a WP:PW discussion here.

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: no consensus. -- tariqabjotu 22:46, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

History of WWE NXT → WWE NXT – Basically, based on the discussion right above this one, the article "WWE NXT" was split up by user Kerbymanuel in a way that other editors such as myself and K.O. didn't agree with. The main article WWE NXT was moved to History of WWE NXT, carrying half of the information while the old page WWE NXT was replaced with the other half of the information. After discussion with K.O. we determined that the two separate articles were not neccessary, so I re-merged the article manually (actually restored it how it was before it was split up) but it seems that the new "WWE NXT" didn't have the edit history of the old one. Then I managed to bungle the moving of pages here and there. I'd hope an admin can help move this current page with the long edit history to WWE NXT, and delete the pages History of WWE NXT, WE NXT and Wikipedia: WWE NXT. --Relisted Cúchullain ^t/c 03:39, 22 November 2012 (UTC)Starship.paint (talk) 10:00, 28 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I think this is a request for WP:AN not WP:RM -- 65.92.181.190 (talk) 05:13, 29 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly disagree until final decision here: Discussion on merging NXT articles together. Srsrox (talk) 21:55, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These two pages are very different at the supposed cut-and-paste point :: see their byte lengths as in their editing histories, and this diff. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 10:42, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Controversial Move

This page should not have been moved. How many times do we have to vote on this to STAY PUT? srsrox ^{BlahBlahBlah...} 13:56, 1 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
