SUPERSTAR SPECTACLE COMING TO WWE INDIA

By Mike Johnson on 2021-01-09 10:12:00

WWE India's Instagram account announced this morning that "Superstar Spectacle" is forthcoming, stating, "Breaking Now: The first-ever #WWESuperstarSpectacle is coming soon. #StayTuned #India"

Local advertising on Sony lists the Spectacle airing on Tuesday 1/26 on Sony with all the advertising built around WWE's Indian stars, including Jinder Mahal, NXT recruit Kavita Devi and tag teams Indus Sher and The Bollywood Boys.  1/26 is a national holiday, Indian Republic Day.  The belief is the special would be taped at the WWE Performance Center and would likely air Stateside on the WWE Network.

This falls in line with a report from last year from POSTWrestling's John Pollock about WWE developing a NXT India project.

During the October 2020 WWE quarterly conference call with financial investors, WWE's Nick Khan announced the company was working on a 2021 event in partnership with Sony featuring local Indian talents that will air there and be distributed here in the United States and at the time, they were working on the "right talents and right structure" for the event.

Thanks to Rahul Patel for his assistance.
