10 Biggest Problems Facing WWE Right Now

Since 2014, NXT was WWE's most consistent and entertaining brand. Fans looked forward to Wednesdays as it was a fresh change of pace from the often stale product of Raw and SmackDown. Triple H, William Regal and others were able to cultivate an immense roster, combining WWE’s homegrown talent with some of the best wrestlers in the world. NXT was the hottest brand in professional wrestling and a place nearly every wrestler wanted to be.

That all changed when Vince McMahon started to make decisions for the black and gold brand. First, NXT was moved off of the WWE Network to the USA Network as a direct shot at the newly formed All Elite Wrestling who would be soon debuting on Wednesday nights. Then, with the creation of NXT 2.0, the entire presentation of NXT was changed, and not for the better. This was followed by WWE releasing many of the people who had nurtured NXT, such as the aforementioned Regal and 'Road Dogg' Brian James.

With any change comes skepticism, but NXT has already lost so much of what had made it special. Reverting back to a true developmental brand is not the worst thing that could have happened to NXT. It is however, a sad realization that NXT is not at the heights it once was, and likely will not return to those glory days.
