Multiple sources are reporting that the new WWE Performance Center will open July 8th. All of the new developmental talent that the company has signed over the last few months are being required to be in Orlanda, Florida, where the Performance Center is located, by the first week of July. Some of these new WWE signees are Cory Weston, Smith James, Samuray Del Sol, Sami Callihan, Mike Bennett, and Shaun Ricker, to name a few.

WWE COO Triple H announced that the Performance Center was being created back in April. The 26,000-square-foot facility is located in The Forsyth Central Commerce Park in Winter Park, Florida. This places the new facility directly across from Full Sail University, the current home of WWE’s NXT developmental brand. The new top-of-the-line facility will contain seven wrestling rings, a gym, and high-tech production/edit rooms that will train new and upcoming producers for the company. The Performance Center will help to further WWE’s partnership with Full Sail University, whose students exclusively edit and produce the weekly broadcasts of WWE NXT from the university. The new facility will be the new home of NXT moving forward. The center also boasts a “best-in-class” sports medicine program, creating not only a new place of learning, but a care center for active and developmental WWE talent.

You can take a look at what the new Performance Center will look like by viewing the video below.
