NXT moved to the USA Network in September this year as a 2-hour live show. Since then, they have been consistently putting on great shows each week to draw a large audience. With the Undisputed Era, Finn Balor, Shayna Baszler, Io Shirai, Tomasso Ciampa, Rhea Ripley, and Matt Riddle among others at the forefront, NXT is a ‘must-watch’ TV right now.
