NXT (WWE brand)

NXT is a developmental brand of the American professional wrestling promotion WWE, serving as a training ground for wrestlers before they move to WWE's main roster on either Raw or SmackDown. Introduced on February 23, 2010, NXT features a separate roster of wrestlers who primarily appear on the brand's weekly television program, NXT. Unlike Raw and SmackDown, which are affected by WWE's brand extension, NXT operates as a developmental system regardless of whether a brand split is in effect.
