WWE NXT overcame significant travel disruption to reach Houston ahead of tonight’s scheduled broadcast on the CW Network.
Severe storms and tornadoes across the Southeast caused major delays on Monday, impacting flights out of Orlando International Airport, where much of the WWE NXT roster was due to depart. The disruption led to a ground stoppage, with flights delayed by several hours.
Despite the difficulties, PWInsider reported that the majority of the roster successfully made it to Texas in time for the taping.
“Just about everyone one would expect to be in town for the taping are indeed in Houston,” the report stated. “It was an extremely rough travel day, but the crew made it to Texas.”
Earlier updates had indicated uncertainty over whether talent would arrive as scheduled. Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer noted that delays had exceeded four hours at Orlando, with WWE monitoring the situation closely in case contingency plans were required.
“NXT talent apparently stuck at the Orlando airport, which is currently at a ground stoppage with flights delayed so far above four hours,” Alvarez wrote.
