Two New WWE Series Not Coming Anytime Soon

Hold on a second. WWE has a lot of television programming every single week and that can be a problem. There is only so much time to spend watching everything that they throw out there and it can be a little overwhelming at times. That makes it a little hard to fathom when they are talking about introducing even more shows, but now fans might be having a bit of a reprieve.

As a major international wrestling company, WWE is going to do whatever it can to expand its base. That includes going after as many new fans as it can find so it is going to try and see where else they can go. It could mean trying to tap into some new markets, which is what WWE seems interested in trying. However, it might be a little bit longer than it had seemed.

Earlier this month, reports came out that WWE was hoping to debut both an NXT India show as well as a lucha libre series of some sort. However, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, neither show is expected to debut anytime soon. The shows were originally going to be taking place in the future, but the Coronavirus pandemic has delayed their developments even further. It is not clear when either show will be debuting.

Opinion: This makes a little more sense as I wasn’t entirely clear how WWE was going to introduce two new international series when there are only so many ways to get around the world at the moment. These new shows would be important, but would they be important enough to have some of the higher WWE names quarantined due to international travel? That might be a big much, but thankfully things are slowing down a bit.
