Report: WWE ‘Disappointed’ With NXT 2.0 Performance

NXT 2.0 has now been on our screens for around four months, and it’s fair to say it’s received a mix of negative and positive reviews for the way it’s produced and presented on TV.

According to a new report from WrestleVotes, WWE is internally disappointed with the way things have been going in NXT 2.0, as expectations were more fans would gravitate to the new stars.

WrestleVotes tweeted:

Internally WWE is said to be disappointed w/ NXT 2.0 in its first 4 months. Source said they thought more fans would gravitate towards the newer stars quicker than they have. Could it just be too much, too fast? Either way I don’t expect any changes to the concept… just yet.

As the report notes, don’t expect WWE to change the formula just yet, but it might be worrying for some of the new NXT stars to hear that WWE isn’t pleased with the amount of fans they draw on a weekly basis.

Thankfully, WWE changed WALTER’s name to Gunther this past week, so that should really improve the ratings.
