NXT To Continue Global Expansion Says Shawn Michaels

WWE

Shawn Michaels has spoken about a plan for NXT to continue to expand within the global market to include Europe, Japan and Mexico.

When discussing the future of NXT, Shawn Michaels dropped some scintillating tidbits about continued global expansion from the developmental brand.

In a post-show media call, Shawn Michaels spoke about not only the future ahead for NXT Europe but also NXT Japan and NXT Mexico as well.

Michaels said:

“When it comes to NXT expanding outside of the US, NXT Europe is going to be coming in 2023 and I know there have been talks of NXT Japan and NXT Mexico.

“Those are probably farther down the road but it’s my understanding that those are some announcements that could be coming not too far down the road in 2023. The one thing everyone is excited about is, this company never sleeps and we are constantly trying to grow and expand.

“I have no doubt, I can’t tell you how I know, but I know a guy that is pretty interested in NXT and its expansion. I’m sure those things are not far down the road at all.”

NXT Europe was announced as a future alternative after the dissolution of NXT UK with multiple stars transitioning from the UK based NXT to Florida.
