Yesterday saw an official announcement from WWE regarding something Triple H had already alluded to on Twitter:

NXT is heading to Las Vegas on December 17th at the Mandalay Bay Events Center. While we have just under two months away from the event–and unforeseen circumstances such as injury and wellness checks can change everything–the WWE are obviously billing current NXT favourites and stars such as NXT Champion Shinsuke Nakamura, NXT Women’s Champion Asuka, Samoa Joe, and Bobby Roode for the live event in Sin City.

As one of the premiere entertainment centres in North America, WWE is showing a lot of faith in the NXT brand with this move. And with NXT continuing to gain ground, we can only assume that this will be a hot ticket in Vegas, and will further prove that the brand is the future of WWE.

Ticket pre-sales will begin tomorrow, September 29th, with ticket sales themselves beginning on Friday, September 30th.
