Also seems the reason why WWE is moving NXT from Full Sail to their Performance Center is a mix of NXT hasn't been using Full Sail students to help with production since going closed set for tapings and Full Sail recently partially re-opened and didn't want to risk the chance that someone from WWE could infect their students and staff.
Plus moving away from Full Sail means WWE no longer has to follow Full Sail's rules for NXT tapings.

As noted last night, WWE is reportedly set to return to the PC for NXT and 205 Live starting with NXT Takeover: 31 on Sunday. According to Wrestling Inc, the move is an amicably split from Full Sail and the “door is open” for them to return.
The site reports that the main reason for the move is that NXT isn’t using Full Sail students at their tapings, which they’ve previously done for things like camera personnel and production assistants. Full Sail students who were taking classes had the opportunity to shadow NXT crew and learn aspects of what they do. NXT is currently a closed set featuring only WWE personnel and Full Sail is not allowing fans to attend live events on campus for the foreseeable future.
In addition, the school has partially reopened for in-person learning and with NXT using some of the conference rooms, they sometimes could come into contact with students in passing. The idea of keeping the roster and crew as the only people using facilities and avoiding contact to minimize risk was a factor in the decision. This also allows NXT to make the decision when they want to allow fans on their own and means they won’t have to coincide with Full Sail’s decisions.
