WWE Performance Center (WWE PC) is a group of professional wrestling schools owned by American company WWE. They serve as tryout and training facilities for WWE, and also contain sports science and medical facilities as well as live events and production studios. WWE currently operates two Performance Center locations, with the first opened in Orlando, Florida on July 11, 2013, replacing the training facility of WWE's former developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling. A second branch opened on January 11, 2019, in Enfield, London.[1]
The Performance Center in Orlando temporarily became the home venue for WWE's Raw, SmackDown, and 205 Live brands in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, with its weekly television programs Monday Night Raw, Friday Night Smackdown, 205 Live, and Main Event, as well as pay-per-view events (including WrestleMania 36) being recorded in a studio at the Performance Center with no audience. In August 2020, WWE moved Raw and SmackDown's closed productions to an arena setting dubbed the "ThunderDome" — which used a larger-scale production more in line with its touring shows, but with a virtual audience.
The NXT developmental brand was subsequently moved to the Performance Center in Orlando in October 2020, moving from its former home at Full Sail University. Following the move of the NXT program to the Performance Center, the school's main studio was reconfigured as the "Capitol Wrestling Center" (CWC) to suit the look and feel of NXT programming. Unlike the tenures of the Raw and SmackDown brands at the Performance Center, NXT's move was permanent, with the brand remaining at the Performance Center even as COVID-19 restrictions were lifted in June 2021. The CWC name was dropped in September 2021 as part of a relaunch of NXT, which saw a second reconfiguration of the studio.
In 2025, the Performance Center in Orlando became the home venue of WWE's LFG and Evolve programs.
