WWE May Be Launching A New Brand: Report

Recent news suggests WWE is putting a much stronger effort into finding new wrestling talent from countries all around the globe. This could lead to a new brand coming to fans this year, according to PWInsider.com.

This increased worldwide scouting has led to more discussions inside WWE itself. People in the company are reportedly saying that serious work is being done to get the long-hoped-for NXT Europe brand started before the end of this year, 2025.

This potential new branch in Europe would follow several of WWE's recent attempts to attract more international wrestlers. These activities include the special UK Tryouts that WWE held while on its European tour in March 2025, which gathered many hopefuls.

From those tryouts, it has been reported that WWE found several wrestlers they are very interested in signing. Among these talents are Spanish wrestler Zozaya, Aigle Blanc from France, and Mike D. Vecchio, who represents Italy, along with other promising athletes who made an impression.

WWE's concept of NXT Europe is not a brand-new idea, as it builds on previous international efforts. For a while, the company has discussed creating a new training and development center based in the European region to nurture local talent.

The main purpose of such a brand would be to discover and help train the next wave of European WWE Superstars. This would give these wrestlers a special place to grow their skills and get noticed on a big stage, with a clear path to WWE's main shows.

Such a development would also be great news for many skilled wrestlers in Europe. It would offer them a more direct and more straightforward path to possibly having a long-term career within the WWE system.

This new system could help these European talents get used to the WWE style of performance and prepare them for future spots on WWE Raw or WWE SmackDown. It could also create exciting new weekly shows and events for WWE fans in Europe to watch and support.

The NXT UK brand previously served a similar purpose for several years before it was closed to make way for the broader NXT Europe concept. Many are hopeful that NXT Europe will build on the foundation of NXT UK and become an even bigger and more successful platform for talent.

WWE has a history of successfully developing top-tier talent through its NXT system in the United States, which has produced many current main roster stars.
