Shawn Michaels discussed the status of the WWE NXT brand after WrestleMania 40 in an interview with the WWE x Figures YouTube channel.
“Wrestlemania 40, coming off a huge blockbuster weekend for the WWE, and sometimes what might get lost in the shuffle is NXT. Obviously I can’t allow that to happen. So NXT, I have to say I’m very honored and proud to say that we set an all time attendance record 16,545 people in that building. Huge to kick off Wrestlemania weekend. Thrilled about everything that’s been going on.
Everybody talking about a new era in the WWE. That is in fact a true statement. That is a new era, a new time. In NXT, we got a lot more coming down the road. So get ready, buckle up, because we are only getting started.”
