Host Jamey Eisenberg stated that he recently met Young, who told him that he signed with WWE and will debut with NXT at some point over the next few of weeks. Check out the podcast at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stitcher.com\/podcast\/cbssportscom-fantasy-football-today-podcast\/e\/45942790?autoplay=true\" target=\"_blank\">Stitcher.com\/podcast\/cbssportscom-fantasy-football-today<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Powell&#8217;s POV:<\/strong><\/span> Young has already appeared on NXT television, so I assume that Eisenberg meant that Young will be debuting as a regular on the NXT brand soon. Triple H stated that NXT will be taping next week&#8217;s television show in Brooklyn on Saturday. The following television tapings are scheduled for August 25, and the next round of tapings will be on September 15.
