WWE.com Survey Asks Fans To Compare WWE To NXT
WWE continues to search for answers on why things aren't working.
There was a list of adjectives such as fun, traditional, innovative, mainstream, fantastical, original, wrestling, etc. and the fan was asked to select all that apply to each promotion. In addition to that there was a selection of questions regarding demographics and viewing habits.
The survey also asked: What got you hooked on NXT, how did you hear about NXT, and when did you become an NXT fan? and what the person's favorite and least favorite qualities of each show were.
They asked what websites people visit for their wrestling news (WhatCulture.com all the way!) and if you considered yourself a WWE fan, but not an NXT fan, an NXT fan and not a WWE fan, or a fan of both.
This is yet another sign that WWE is taking the Raw ratings decline seriously while trying to get a grasp on the lightning in a bottle that is NXT. Whether this means they'll take the positive feedback they receive on the developmental program and apply it to the flagship show is another matter entirely. Hopefully we don't see the adverse and NXT ends up becoming Raw-lite.
