Inside WWE NXT Writing Schedule Revealed By New Writer

TLDR

WWE NXT writer Colby Applegate revealed the show's weekly writing schedule, which begins on Wednesdays with 8-9 hour creative sessions to develop stories and scripts for the following week's episode. The process continues through Thursday and Friday with script completion and segment writing, followed by Monday pre-production and table reads, before Tuesday's filming and live broadcast at 8 PM Eastern on The CW. Applegate emphasized that WWE writing is a collaborative team effort where scripts frequently get changed and writers cannot be "egotistical about it."
