Vince McMahon Reportedly Looking To Make WWE NXT 2.0 An Edgier Product

WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon reportedly has some significant plans in store for the WWE NXT 2.0 brand.

Word going around WWE is that McMahon has plans for NXT 2.0 to be a more edgier product, according to Fightful Select. This would be a part of the ongoing revamp for the brand.

It was reported that the NXT 2.0 brand may target more of a P18-34 demographic, which would go for everything from in-ring work and aggression, to harsher language, and the like. It was also noted that there may be more lenience when it comes to the attire worn by female Superstars, although it wasn't specified exactly what that means. Another point brought up was that the brand may "keep up with current affairs with promos and character verbiage."

There's no word on when these changes might be implemented, and it was noted that sources haven't heard much more outside of a brief internal acknowledgement that the changes have been discussed. One talent noted that they'd believe it when they see it, and that they have not heard of the changes.

At least some officials at the USA Network are aware of the potential changes, and are said to be in support of them.

Stay tuned for more on the NXT 2.0 revamp.
