It will be interesting to see what happens in 2016 for the NXT brand. Triple H has teased announcements for the New Year, and there have been rumors that NXT will be split into two separate touring brands; one brand to tour nationally and do the TV and another that will just work the Florida loop with the less experienced workers. NXT has an event on the WWE schedule in Fort Pierce, FL.
