It’s a holiday thing. We are nearing the end of the year and that means the holiday season is upon us. That means WWE is trying to give its wrestlers a bit of a breather by taping some of its shows in advance. The company has already taped an upcoming SmackDown and Monday Night Raw in advance, meaning there is only one left to complete the trifecta. That was covered this week.

Opinion: While it still feels somewhat strange to have a show on Christmas Eve night, there are some things going on with this show which should make for an interesting show. I’m not sure what that is going to mean for the show as it is not likely going to draw a big audience, but now we are going to see what NXT is doing on the way to the new year and their big show to start it off.
