Backstage Update On Internal Reaction To Reported Key Change For WWE NXT On The CW
An update has surfaced regarding one key change to the WWE NXT shows on CW.
As noted, in addition to a new look, feel and logo for WWE NXT upon moving to the CW starting tonight in Chicago, Illinois, it has been reported that the previously TV-PG rated program will now be a TV-14 show.
Regarding these reports, multiple WWE NXT sources, which range from those who work in production to talent themselves, have not been told of an upcoming change in style for the product, or presentation, nor has anyone heard of the rating being changed to TV-14 for any specific reason.
One particular source noted that it would be odd to see WWE NXT and not WWE Raw or WWE SmackDown change from TV-PG to TV-14, but noted that due to it being on network television, it could be a legal loophole to prevent censoring crowd chants and other age-related content issues.
Another key note was how the change in rating would affect sponsors and advertisers for the brand and the show.
