#5. WWE's plans for a Lucha Libre Series; possible role for Chavo Guerrero
WWE has big plans to expand their NXT brand, and as revealed by WrestlingInc, the company is reportedly planning to have a Mexican Lucha Libre Series.
The proposed Lucha Libre Series could be the Mexican version of NXT, and as things stand, the idea is still in the early planning stage. It was also added that WWE has spoken to a few people about the Lucha Libre Series.
Chavo Guerrero Jr. is one of the names that is being considered as a consultant for the project. Chavo Guerrero left the WWE in 2011, and the former ECW Champion has since worked in several promotions, notably as an agent and performer in Lucha Underground.
A source told WrestlingInc that the Lucha Libre Series could be like WCW Telemundo's 'Festival de Lucha' pilot show, which was taped but not aired in 1999.
As reported by Riju Dasgupta of Sportskeeda, WWE has already lined up an NXT India show that is scheduled to begin in January.
The company wants to have more brands under the NXT umbrella, and NXT Mexico could be a plan that WWE executes in 2021. Chavo Guerrero returning to the WWE after nine years could help kickstart the promising project.
