Report: Vince McMahon, Bruce Prichard Producing "Revamped" WWE NXT

More changes coming for NXT?

Vince McMahon and Bruce Prichard look to be the primary producers of NXT going forward, according to a report from Bryan Alvarez on today's Wrestling Observer Live.

Alvarez has reported that McMahon and Prichard will be in charge of NXT production once the brand resumes live broadcasts in mid-September.

Said Alvarez, "It's gonna be like the old NXT. I have heard from several people now that when they go back to live shows, this is going to be a McMahon-Prichard production."

Dave Meltzer has added that McMahon and Prichard will be, "...behind the big decisions, not the little ones, and will be behind marketing, promotion, and direction. Their role in booking may only be regarding those at the top."

WWE President Nick Khan noted in an August interview with Ariel Helwani that NXT was going to be completely revamped. In the interview, Khan stated that Paul Levesque was going to lead the revamp, though this new report indicates heavier involvement on the part of McMahon and Prichard.

An update Fightful Select notes that numerous talent in NXT haven't been made aware of the news regarding McMahon and Prichard. However, they note that longtime WWE producer Jamie Noble has been at the Performance Center "more often than usual", while Prichard will be attending the PC this weekend.
