EXCLUSIVE: News & Notes From Last Night's NXT (Patreon)

Last night was not the first NXT on a Tuesday night, but it was the first one of NXT airing on Tuesday every week going forward. As far as some of the stuff that took place last night we have a few news and notes. 

Regarding Roderick Strong seemingly quitting NXT and fans thinking that he is coming to the main roster, that is not the case. We were told that this is a full NXT storyline that will play out over time on NXT. Strong keeps saying that he is "done", but we are all only assuming that means he is done with the NXT brand.

Regarding Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair appearing on the show last night with Raquel Gonzalez, many backstages did not know this was something they were going to do. Most backstage felt this was a great moment and everyone loved that they did this.

We were also told that along with Franky Monet(the former Taya Valkyrie) there was another wrestler backstage last night who has worked for IMPACT Wrestling in 2021 who's contract is reportedly up soon or could be up already.

Regarding the next NXT Takeover, the working plan is for the show to take place on either Saturday, May 15th or Sunday, May 16th but nothing is currently locked in.
