"We are doing a complete revamp on NXT, led by Triple H, who is really one of the architects of the original NXT," Khan revealed. "What we found — it's part of why we did the tryout yesterday — what we want to make sure is easy for folks who want to be WWE Superstars, is figuring out how to become WWE Superstars."

"In terms of an NXT re-brand, look for it in the next couple of weeks. It's going to have a whole new look, it's going to have a whole new feel — and we believe — because of a lot of the indie wrestlers, if you will, have come through our system and are in our system with SmackDown and RAW now. We don't want to just keep doing that same thing, we want to look elsewhere for great, young talent."
