It was revealed during tonight’s NXT program that the brand will resume live tours from June 10th. The brand will showcase eight brand new events that will run in Tampa, Largo, Jacksonville, Venice, Citrus Springs, Orlando, Melbourne, and Cocoa Beach between June and July.

Other than the Stand and Deliver show in Dallas, most of the young stars of the colorful brand haven’t wrestled in front of a different audience. Dave Meltzer previously stated that WWE has no plans to take NXT tours outside the state of Florida.
