During Sunday’s Heatwave event, it was announced that NXT Homecoming would be taking place on the September 16 edition of NXT on the CW. This will be held at Full Sail University, which used to be the home of WWE NXT tapings until 2020 when they were moved to the WWE Performance Center. The last event at Full Sail was NXT TakeOver: XXX in 2020.

"No Mercy" is a name that will be familiar to long-time WWE fans. It was a recurring WWE pay-per-view from 1999 to 2008 and was briefly revived in 2016 and 2017. The name is often associated with a more aggressive, intense style of wrestling.

WWE fans noticed that the organization had seemingly canceled one of its social media shows without any notice. WWE Speed, which previously appeared on X (formerly Twitter), ceased airing new episodes without any explanation or confirmation of cancellation.
