MORE ON WWE'S SYFY SERIES by Mike Johnson @ 8:24 PM on 2/2/2010
Sources in WWE just confirmed the ECW on SyFy series will indeed go forward under the name WWE NXT, with NXT standing for "Next Generation."
As we initially broke back in November 2009 in the PWInsider.com Elite section, one of the concepts pitched to SyFy was to build the series around an entirely new cast of characters with the tease being viewers could watch them debut and develop nowhere but on SyFy. One would think a lot of talents will be coming up from WWE developmental soon.

Interesting name.
Kinda works with the idea I had of them calling it "WWE Proving Ground".

It's a typo and it's meant to be TXT.
All matches are done via text messages.

You think they're going to make a storyline out of the change, or will it go from ECW one week to NXT the next without explanation?

I actually like this idea, shifting the show to be entirely new/young wrestler based.

I hate the name, but if it's young guys who actually know how to wrestle and they just let them go at it, balls-out, non-safe-style, then great.
If it's just FCW with a TV deal, no thanks.

It's a typo and it's meant to be TXT. All matches are done via text messages. The first main event... Chris Jericho vs Miz. Twitter Death Match

Give Low Ki and Danielson a 3 month feud together to start them.

Well WWE bought wwenxt.com, so who knows it could be it. Granted they bought it last week, so this is a recent decision, if true
