WWE Clarifies Some Details on NXT Voting

While many blanks remain as it relates to how the inaugural season of WWE NXT will work, the world’s leading wrestling organization began painting a clearer picture Tuesday.

During the second episode, announcers Josh Matthews and Michael Cole confirmed that the contestants’ fates will be decided by a tallied “vote” by the pros in the competition.

They added that the pros can neither vote for nor against their rookie protege.

Obviously, as the wrestlers are already under contract to WWE, more than one ‘rookie’ will end up making an impact on RAW or SmackDown. But it should be interesting to determine how WWE uses the voting process to give one of the rookies an additional edge when it comes to breaking into the main roster.
