On Thursday, Wrestle Votes reported that there is talk behind-the-scenes within WWE about making a change to the originally scheduled plans for WWE NXT Battleground 2024.
Originally scheduled to take place on May 26, 2024 from Savannah, Georgia, it appears that WWE NXT Battleground 2024 will instead be moved to June 9, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
According to the aforementioned report, the event is expected to be held at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas, NV., marking the first WWE NXT PLE to take place from the venue, which is owned by TKO Group Holdings, the same parent-company as WWE.

The report continued, “With the location shifting as well as Savanna, GA will no longer host the show. NXT Battleground will take place live in Las Vegas at the UFC Apex.”
