Booker T Discusses Upcoming Changes to WWE Performance Center

 

WWE is making headlines in 2024 with a series of new TV deals, including “WWE Raw” transitioning to Netflix, “WWE SmackDown” moving to USA Network, and “WWE NXT” set to make its network television debut on the CW starting October 1.

With “NXT” poised to attract a larger audience than ever, the WWE Performance Center—an essential training ground for new talent and the site for “NXT” tapings—is undergoing significant renovations. Booker T shared insights about the upcoming changes to the Orlando, Florida facility during a recent episode of his “Hall of Fame” podcast.

“We’re going to be out of the PC for a couple of weeks now, actually three weeks before we get back in there,” Booker revealed. “I heard they’ve completely torn it down. A construction crew came in and took everything out. So when we get back in there, it’s supposed to look totally different—boom! Off the chain. I’m excited. I want to see exactly what they’re doing.” He humorously added that if WWE wanted to part with any surplus LED boards, he would gladly take them off their hands.

The WWE Performance Center opened in 2013, replacing Florida Championship Wrestling as the company’s developmental system. It played a crucial role during the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing WrestleMania 36 to be relocated there amid nationwide restrictions on public gatherings. Additionally, WWE launched a second Performance Center in London for UK trainees in 2019.

Before “WWE NXT” returns to Orlando for tapings, the Allstate Arena in Chicago will host its live debut on the CW Network.
