Probably not WWE’s choice given NXT was doing fine where it was for what it was supposed to do. I imagine that the NHL coming to USA has more to do with it than anything from the WWE side. Might be good for both short-term, but more nights for wrestling and the quality of the shows and how they’re presented may not be able to retain the viewers available. Could end up hurting things more than helping.

AEW should move to Tuesdays and keep bullying their ass. Fucking cowards tucking tail and running to Tuesdays. Makes me sick. You hate to see it WWE. Imagine they did this when Nitro was pounding them? Fuck. What a joke man.

AEW is the undisputed king of wrestling now. They should move to Monday nights and take Vince’s lunch money for real.

Meh. I'd rather see how much of the 700k or so of the nxt audience actually switches to AEW and if they can hold that turnover

LOL you guys acting like AEW won something is pathetic. If USA decides to move NXT it will have 0% to do with AEW.
NXT will still be more profitable, will still have a better tv deal, and will still be a part of a Billion Dollar company with a Billion Dollar streaming deal. Also, Spoiler Alert - NHL is also > AEW Enjoy losing whatever Canadian audience you had, Marks |

Hey, they both had rich and successful fathers who were responsible for their early success. Tony is just following a not so dissimilar to Vince really. Never really thought about how similar they are.

Crazy that Vince lost to Tony. AEW wins, soundly defeating WWF for over a year. Amazing.

NXT probably has way more to gain from this than AEW does. I imagine more people prioritise AEW than NXT. WWE might end up with #1, #2 and #3. Hell, if NXT Evolve ends up happening and is presented as something serious and completely different from WWE’s other products, they might secure the top four.

Road Dogg probably takes care of that issue and continues his trend of tanking the interest of whatever brand he has big hand in for creative.
Did it with SmackDown when he took over as the sole lead writer and boss of Blue Brand's creative and currently doing it with his big involvement in NXT Creative. |

If I remember correctly, Triple H pushed for him to have a bigger role in creative which is how he got paired up with Ryan Ward at the time.
Ward handled most of the writing while Dogg mainly handled rewrites and tweaks in order to improve the chances Vince would approve of their creative plans. Then for some dumb reason, Ward got demoted while Dogg got promoted as sole lead writer and boss of SD creative. That led to SD's quality quickly tanking and Dogg getting pissed online whenever people would blame him for SD's woes. For some reference, he was one of the biggest opponents of Becky Lynch's rise to top stardom and gave lame excuses online for why it shouldn't happen nor her being the top face star whenever he got called out on WWE's stubborn booking towards her. Him and HBK having their hands all over NXT's Creative has done more to hurt than help during the current Wednesday Night Wars battle with AEW. |

NXT's tv deal with USA Network is more like $25-$30 million per year based on recent reports from Wrestlenomics.

the people who sctively root against AEW (or WWF) make no sense to me. if you like the business more jobs is good. i get not liking a product but i dont get spewing venom every time theyre mentioned. i dont watch either unless someone specifically asks me to check something out for them because the shows dont stimulate me...but i dont hate them for it.

Crazy that AEW get so much more from TNT than WWE gets for their NXT product on USA. $43 million a year for four years plus they have smashed WWE and USA's hopes of defeating the opposition on Wednesday nights. Who'd have thought that AEW would've made WWE tuck tail so fast? I don't think that's ever happened before. No matter what WWE did to boost NXT, Charlotte, Edge, AJ... They just couldn't come out on top. I guess the fans just prefer AEW's product to WWE''s when they are side by side. Crazy.

So the company that is publicly traded and required to report things like this to the SEC is false, but Wrestlenomics is right? Got it, guess I'll just accept that.

Did WWE reveal what they made from their NXT deal in their last fiscal report since they haven't done so with the prior ones which is why the speculation continues over how much the deal is actually worth. They did the same with their Saudi deal where they hid the amount they were getting paid in other categories and were not upfront about it like with their tv deals. That led to speculation of something fishy was going on which later ended up being true. |
