7 Countries Better Suited For NXT Than Japan

It is supposed to be "NXT: UK" after all, right? As of right now that just means England. But (little known fact alert) there are actually three other countries that make the kingdom whole.

WWE seemed to just discover this in 2019, as NXT UK held some tapings in April in Glasgow and their second TakeOver in Cardiff. So why not find a permanent "extension" by simply expanding the ALREADY existing NXT UK?

By far one of the most cost effective ways to go into expanding the brand, having a number of shows return to Glasgow would be a good start. And Scotland's wrestling is once again largely territorial. Vince knows a thing or two about acquiring territories. It is kind of his thing, he did it in that one little country out in North America once. And it may already be happening in Scotland under our noses.

There was a mystery, unwatchable ICW match when the WWE Network update revamped the search function back in July. It was a match up seemingly from their Drunk and Drunker show in 2018. Could this mean they already own some or all of their content? Is there some sort of agreement in place? We have been here before, after all.

2020 may finally be the time to pull the trigger and begin making NXT England into an actual NXT UK. Why expand when you haven't even reached the borders of the UK?

And speaking of which, there is one more neighbor who has a good claim...
