NXT Live Episode in Lowell Cancelled for June 9

The Lowell Memorial Auditorium in Lowell, Massachusetts, has announced the cancellation of a scheduled live episode of NXT on the CW. The event was set to take place at the venue on Tuesday, June 9, 2026.

According to the announcement from the venue, the cancellation is the result of unforeseen circumstances. The facility did not provide further specific details regarding the nature of the issues that led to the decision to scrap the event.

Refund Process for Ticket Holders

The Lowell Memorial Auditorium has clarified that ticket holders do not need to take any manual action to receive their money back. The venue is currently processing refunds directly to the original form of payment used during the purchase process.

This automatic refund system is intended to streamline the process for fans who had purchased tickets for the June 9 date, ensuring that all financial transactions are reversed without requiring individual requests from the attendees.

NXT and The CW Partnership

The scheduled event was part of the ongoing broadcasting partnership between WWE’s NXT brand and The CW. The move to The CW has been a strategic effort to increase the visibility and reach of the developmental brand, bringing its content to a broader network audience.

Live episodes of NXT often travel to various venues to engage with different regional fanbases, though the majority of the brand’s action typically centers around the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. The planned stop in Lowell would have brought the brand’s high-energy style to the Massachusetts audience.

While the June 9 date in Lowell is no longer on the schedule, the logistical impact on the overall television taping cycle for The CW remains to be seen. WWE typically manages these scheduling shifts by either filming additional content at their primary facilities or rescheduling the live event for a later date and different location.
