KOP runs through thoughts and questions he wants answers to before NXT moves To USA Network LIVE every starting Wednesday, September 18th. NXT has been a loss leader since the re-introduction at Full Sail. This move was eventually going to happen.  KOP considers how this could help AEW and the major Indies in the long run. Plus, could NXT and something like FCW happen again? Below are some of the many thoughts and questions we ponder: Can Mauro Ranallo mental health sustain doing 2 hours a week Live. Did we forget how he crashed doing Smackdown Live? A number of mid-card stars could make their way down there and really be used as enhancement talent. Why did USA Network decide to take on a second WWE show after losing one of them? What is the deal that was made for WWE to move that show. Are they going to allow the Orlando crowd to dictate the focus of NXT every week? Is the show going on the road and leaving Orlando? Will developmental talent be given less spotlight in favor of veterans? The NXT roster which will increase with overfill of the main roster creating a land of misfits. Will WWE's Performance Center signees get left off NXT because of the exposure?  Why not stop 205 Live and bring that talent to the NXT roster? Will the women on this roster get slighted? Will more stories start getting told badly with the inclusion of corporate creative? Will there be less pre-tape material shot? Will Full Sail still assist in production or take an aside? Could NXT ultimately fail and fold and then we get something like FCW again?

WWE Summerslam 2019 has Seth Rollins shocking the Beast Brock Lesnar again. Bray Wyatt is brilliantly booked. KOP breaks down the outcomes. Aside from the brilliant booking of Bray Wyatt WWE Summerslam 2019 storylines had a bit more substance than most pay-per-views. WWE has started the changes that Paul Heyman has instituted. The card with hall of fame stars and veterans helped. This is all part of WWE rebuilding its main roster. WWE Summerslam 2019 will pale in comparison to the Christmas-like Wrestlemania back in April. WWE must continue to build new main eventers in time for October. For that Summerslam had to stay static, and the crowd won't like it. Plus, KOP recaps NXT Takeover Toronto 2. The show did deliver great matches, but does NXT's direction really hurt WWE for their future call-ups?

WWE Summerslam Summons Veteran Superstars to Sell out Toronto and steer the tv product back on track in time for AEW TV and Smackdown (maybe NXT) on Fox. KOP looks into some of the positive constructive changes that WWE has made. They look prepared for their new competition (AEW) and change SD to FOX) in October. Bleacher Report says this about the upcoming Summerslam Card: Although WWE SummerSlam 2019 should boast a star-studded card, it will be especially important for the event to deliver on August 11 in Toronto with the product being so polarizing at the moment. It's no secret that WWE has had a tough time generating genuine fan interest for Raw, SmackDown Live and their pay-per-views for some time now. Although Stomping Grounds and Extreme Rules exceeded expectations, the two main brands have largely remained lifeless. The SmackDown side of the SummerSlam card is bound to be entertaining with Kofi Kingston and Randy Orton rekindling their rivalry over the WWE Championship and SmackDown Women's champion Bayley and Ember Moon facing off for the first time ever. Raw's top matches could use some work, but either way, WWE will be facing unprecedented pressure to knock this show out of the park.
