Scripted RAW/NXT

By Scott Keith on 30 March 2016



Hey Scott.

With NXT being developmental, is it just as scripted as RAW? The reason I ask is because it seems like the NXT crew is easier to describe and most of the wrestlers have small differences between them. This especially helps when my wife catches some of it and asks "what’s the deal with (insert name here)?" Is Triple -H just that good or is the NXT talent allowed to "be themselves and crank the volume up?"

Thanks for the insight!

​NXT is even more scripted than RAW, if that’s possible, because the point is for them to learn the WWE style of interviews, and even the matches are heavily scripted and rehearsed. That’s one reason why a lot of the callups have had trouble adjusting to learning the main roster style, which is a tiny bit more on the fly. ​
