First Two USA Network NXT Shows To Have Second Hour On WWE Network

WWE has announced that the second hour of its first two USA Network NXT shows will air live on the WWE Network.

The first hour of both shows, between 8pm and 9pm ET, will air on the USA Network, and then to watch the second hour, viewers will need to change over to the WWE Network for the second hour between 9pm and 10pm.

It will air for its full two hours on the USA Network starting on October 2, the same night AEW debuts in the same time slot on TNT.

The plan is for the weekly NXT TV episode to be available on the WWE Network each Thursday night, 24 hours after it airs on USA.

There’s no word on why this change of scheduling has been made, but we will keep you updated.

Below is the full announcement:

The historic debut of WWE NXT on USA Network is fast approaching, and WWE.com has you covered with important details on how to catch all the action of the first two live episodes.

The episodes on Wednesday, Sept. 18 and Sept. 25, will air as follows:
