Hmmmm...
2 hour NXT slot.
2 hours to air Smackdown.
Avert massive negative Syfy audience reaction by just airing on Tues where NXT used to be?
Everyone wins (since Syfy just showed reruns on Tues anyway).
Plus, live Smackdown!

If you read the announcement from SyFy and WWE, it states that NXT 'will leave' it doesnt mention cancelled.
Vince will sale the show to someone else, it wont die.
They also confirm Smackdown will stay Friday nights.

Per PWInsider: WWE NXT CANCELED by Mike Johnson @ 9:36 AM on 4/13/2010 The word making the rounds in Stamford, CT this morning is that when WWE moves Smackdown to SyFy in October, NXT will finish its run. ...but they...were...young and...whatever else the annoying intro music said! See, they should've added a mutant pirahna to the 8 man roster and had Edward James Olmos in a deathmatch against a Cylon, and I'm talking one of those old school Cylons. THAT would've saved that show.

The UK Bravo is a channel owned by Virgin media. The US Bravo is a channel with programming targeted towards homosexuals. I'm hoping that they are referring to the UK Bravo.

Oh, the 'wrestling isn't gay argument' would take a serious spanking if that deal went down.

Sigh.
Great, great concept, but I guess it all really was just a Danielson launching pad. Hopefully all eight guys get called up.

So Top Chef is for gay people? Real Houswives... are for gay people? Seems like a channel more targeted toward women not homosexuals.

When you think of it, that makes the decision even more of a head-scratcher. Bravo's audience has no overlap with wrestling auds.

NXT is meant to be a reality show, so a network showing lots of reality based shows would make sense in TV land.

Argh, no, Charter Cable put Bravo in a higher level package that we don't get.

If it went on Bravo, it's make a nice coincidence, since Bravo in the UK shows TNA Impact.
