Recent reports suggest that NXT could be moving from Wednesday to Tuesday nights following WrestleMania 37. Ever since AEW’s inception, both NXT and Dynamite have gone head to head in the ‘Wednesday Night Ratings War’.
AEW’s Executive Vice President has responded to the reports during a recent interview with Action Sports Jax, and the American Nightmare isn’t worried.
“We have destroyed them for over a year now in that space. Them leaving, perhaps that opens up a different viewership for us on Wednesdays. We’re not reactionary to their booking and won’t change anything we do with what they decide to do on Wednesdays. There are a lot of smart people who work for WWE and perhaps they are planning something else, maybe it’s Wednesday Night Raw for all I know. I’m not assuming their white flag, moving to Tuesday nights, is a true white flag. I’ll wait and see. In the interim, we’ll continue to come up with new content, great stories, and make new kings and queens on our roster. If you’re ever backstage at AEW no one is talking about our competition.”
WWE has yet to officially announce NXT’s move to Tuesdays, however, William Regal is set to make two announcements during this week’s edition of NXT television.
