NXT Live in Action
WWE's breakout stars and up-and-comers get their chance to shine and wrestle when NXT, the company's Wednesday night brand, comes to town. Get ready for thrilling wrestling matches, unexpected matchups, and appearances by big-name superstars from all over the WWE universe, all of which adds up to a WWE experience like no other.
NXT Live Background
Debuting in 2010 as World Wrestling Entertainment's developmental brand, NXT was originally represented by a Tough Enough-style competition where rising athletes were mentored by WWE Superstars as they competed for spots on the show's main roster. This version of the show gave fans a first look at pros like Bray Wyatt (who competed as Husky Harris), Naomi, Titus O'Neil, and Daniel Bryan. In 2012, NXT got a makeover, and in 2014 it launched as a weekly television show on the new WWE Network, with house shows as well as regular large-scale events, called TakeOvers, happening in cities around the world. In August 2019, the TV show was expanded to two hours and moved to USA Network, with Superstars like Johnny Gargano, Tommaso Ciampa, Velveteen Dream, Io Shirai, Rhea Ripley, and the Undisputed Era team leading the charge onto cable.
Since its TV relaunch in 2014, NXT has been the launching pad for a number of top-tier WWE Superstars. The Four Horsewomen of NXT — Sasha Banks, Bayley, Charlotte Flair, and Becky Lynch — helped make the women's division on the main roster a force to be reckoned with, as did Asuka and Kairi Sane. Superstars like Kevin Owens, Shinsuke Nakamura, Aleister Black, Samoa Joe, and Sami Zayn have lit up the men's division. Attending an NXT Live event, where members of NXT's television roster mix it up with newer talent, is an investment in WWE's future, allowing fans watching Wrestlemania or other big WWE shows to look at the ring and say, "I knew them back in the day."

The show was a birthday gift for my son, we had a blast! Got some pics and hi fives from the talent. We will be back next time for sure!
Not much to tell all i can say is that it was very very good the place and the entertainment
Was a great show could use a little bigger seating so others are not on your lap.
Even for a house show, the performers brought a high level of performance. We sat front row against the isle where they walk to the ring... so many stopped for high fives, pics, and to say thank you for coming. They clearly appreciated the fans being there. It was also cool to be at such an intimate venue as all of the previous wrestling events I've been at were in larger arenas.
I loved the way that the Roy Wilkins Auditorium was set up for the NXT Show. Not a bad seat in the house and each seat price was reasonable.
Roy Wilkins is an excellent arena to watch wrestling. NXT crowd is very engaged with huge chants and singing. NXT puts on a great show, very entertaining and a definite winner.
A lot larger crowd than last time they were in town. An even better card. Great matches. Can’t wait for NXT to come through again.
Smaller intimate shows compared to Raw and Smackdown, but the same top level performances. Even got a picture with a few of the wrestlers after.
The event was outstanding. Great seats, affordable tickets, and a card that far surpassed my expectations. All the big names were in attendance, and the atmosphere couldn’t be beat
