On Tuesday, the last SD spot in the cage elimination tournament was finally decided, and with Chris Jericho in charge, there was no need for a second veteran. So, the winner of the SD is, Viper Randy Orton.

After watching SD's live broadcast, Li Tianze followed AJ to Orlando, and they won't miss the first phase of NXT's game.

Since EC has not yet been disbanded, the current NXT is not yet the third brand of E, and can only be regarded as the only development alliance of E.

However, the E TV network will broadcast NXT live, especially the first issue of NXT, which E has been promoting for more than a month. According to the estimation of Li Tianze and others, the ratings of the first issue of NXT should not be too low.

NXT's future development route is aimed at E-TV network subscribers, and because it is just getting started, within half a year, NXT will be free for all E-wrestling fans.

Wednesday night, Orlando Sailors University, NXT Phase 1.

Li Tianze, AJ, Stephanie and others came to the backstage collectively before the start of the game to cheer on the NXT players.

"Seth, Dean, okay?"

In the last issue of FC last time, Li Tianze did not communicate much with his old rivals Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. Time passed, and two years later, he actually became the boss of the two.

Digging Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose back was something Li Tianze tried his best to promote. For this reason, not only doubled the annual salary of the two, but also made a promise that they would be allowed to enter E within a year.

Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose have been playing in the indie class for so many years, and there is no need for Li Tianze to worry about their skills at all, and they will be the first to take the stage in tonight's game to get NXT off to a good start.

"Don't worry about us, we know what to do," Seth Rollins said. ”

Dean Ambrose echoed: "We're okay, we're going to give everyone a satisfying game. ”

In fact, Li Tianze is not worried about them, the only thing that is not worried is Roman Reigns, this is a triple threat match, he hopes that Roman Reigns can be integrated into the system of Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose.

The rejection of Barrett's Hub Legion is precisely because of Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, and Roman Reigns, Li Tianze believes that if the three form a legion, it will definitely have more impact than the Hub Legion.

It's just that Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose have just returned, and they are not familiar with Roman Reigns, so Li Tianze hopes that in the coming year, the three will become the main opponents, so as to increase the compatibility of the three.

"I'm fine." Roman Reigns is full of confidence, he doesn't want to be a burden.

"Keep trying, the global wrestling fans are watching you." Li Tianze's words are a bit exaggerated, and he is satisfied with the first episode of NXT with one-tenth of the ratings of RA or SD.

This is the first time NXT has broadcast live, and in the past, FC only made the game into a disc and sold it, and live streaming and recording are different concepts of safety, in fact, for Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose, they are also experiencing it for the first time.

After encouraging the trio in the first game, Li Tianze came to the women's preparation area, as the last women's champion of FC, Page will play a women's title match tonight, and the winner will not only become the new NXT women's champion, but also get the honor of NXT's first championship.

Page's opponent is Bailey, a match handpicked by Li Tianze.

"Do you want to play?" Li Tianze came to Becky Lynch, who was looking at Page and Bailey with envy, and asked.

In fact, Becky Lynch has played in the European Little Wrestling League for several years, but her style is not suitable for the taste of American audiences for the time being.

"Yes." Becky Lynch said without hesitation.

Li Tianze said with a smile: "Train a lot, with your foundation, I believe you will be able to compete soon." ”

Recently, the NXT women's division has recruited a lot of people, such as Charlotte, who went to study for a degree, and will return next week. Li Tianze intends to let Sasha Banks and Alex Sabris enter NXT this year to supplement the strength of NXT women's division.

Becky Lynch said resolutely: "I will get into the ring early and will not disappoint you and Finn." ”

Li Tianze smiled, he was optimistic about this little pepper from Ireland.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the first phase of NXT live broadcast officially began, and the E TV network made a top recommendation, and countless wrestling fans clicked into the live broadcast room to watch the live webcast this time.

"300,000!"

"350,000!"

“OMG！ It has exceeded 500,000! ”

I have to admit that E's recent publicity is in place, and the number of NXT viewers has exceeded 500,000 in just 1 minute after the broadcast, and it continues to increase.

600,000!

700,000!

By the time Renee Young debuted, the number of viewers watching the live broadcast through the E-TV network had reached about 800,000, and everyone was happy with this achievement.

"The charm of free is endless." Born in the country of China where he is free to rule, Li Tianze knows best why NXT has such a high popularity, and if you want to charge, the number of viewers will be more than 100,000 at most.

"Very good, according to the current trend, the average number of viewers of the first episode should exceed one million." Stephanie, who has been monitoring the data, said that the acquisition of FC was definitely the most shrewd decision.

"Such data is almost on par with EC, and if you give NXT a year, you will definitely be able to surpass EC." Li Tianze breathed a sigh of relief, at least NXT was not snubbed by American wrestling fans.

As the third brand of E, EC has an average rating of 1.2, which is about one million to one and a half million viewers, which is far worse than RA and SD with three or four million viewers.

Stephanie smiled and said, "If nothing happens, there should be a rating of 1, 100 to 1.2 million people watching, which can definitely make NXT the headline of the wrestling world tomorrow." ”

Li Tianze nodded, such ratings beat the independent league, even ROH is difficult to reach such a level.

In fact, all this is thanks to E's resources, more than a month of publicity, plus the live broadcast of the E TV network, has transformed FC. A wrestling show that became a million viewers.

It can be seen from this that how strong E is in the wrestling world, I am afraid that the global independent league federations will not be able to shake E by half a point.

"With such ratings, even if we knock out EC, no one else will say anything." Stephanie also doesn't like EC very much, it was raised by her stepmother, and 90% of EC players are from the former EC, not her own people.

Moreover, in the past two years, it has been difficult to find the bright spots in the EC competition, except for selling meat and eyeballs, and with the development of PG, the elimination of EC is a certainty.

"The good news is that with a million viewers watching the first episode of NXT live on the network, do you have the confidence to deliver the perfect match for this million wrestling fans?"

Li Tianze came to the contestant preparation area, clapped his hands and asked everyone to pay attention to himself, the first issue of NXT will determine the future success or failure of NXT, it is not good-looking, who will continue to watch the second and third, and even the follow-up NXT.

Everyone gave Li Tianze a satisfactory answer with a high-pitched answer: "Yes, we will make NXT a powerful force in E." ”

At this time, there was a sound of Renee Young announcing the curtain in front of her, and with her appearance, she would definitely be liked by many wrestling fans.

"Go, E's future will definitely belong to you."

Li Tianze is completely integrated into the identity of the boss, and he is considered the emperor in NXT.
