WWE sent officials to Japan earlier this week to talk with various companies about potential business relations and opening the door for NXT Japan.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter is reporting that WWE could very well soon be working towards developing a NXT Japan brand.
Regarding expanding the NXT brand to international markets, such as their recent NXT U.K. expansion in the United Kingdom, WWE COO Paul "Triple H" Levesque told The National earlier this week that more is coming.
"I can tell you there will be a performance center in India," Triple H said. "There will be a performance center in the Middle East. There will, more than likely, be a performance center in Latin America. We will be replicating this process around the globe, all over."
He also touched on the efforts WWE is making to find the best talents all over the world.
"We will scour, we will go through those people, we will talk to them, we will whittle that down to the best of the best," Triple H said. "We'll bring them in to try out for us. They'll come in for a few days, we'll put them through some really hard stuff. But we're not just looking to wear them out physically because what we're looking for is, they wear down physically, we're looking for how they handle that mentally. What becomes of them? Are they leaders? When they get tired, do they help the person next to them? Or do they push the person next to them down, to try to succeed, themselves? It's all part of the process."
