If NXT moves to FS1 and runs against AEW's TNT show, who is winning?

[Champagne Kudo]

Idk why nikkas act like NXT is some huge threat. Brehs there's a sizable amount of WWE fans that don't even watch NXT. Meanwhile them same nikkas will watch AEW tho. NXT is a good product but it's not as hype as wwe nikkas would lead you to believe.

I'm so sure Mox, Jericho & The Elite fear Johnny Gargano and his gang of devolpmemtal guys and the rest of them undercard nikkas like oney lorken or whoever

Dumb idea. Why abandon your loyal Wednesday audience just to spite AEW.

Shocking no one has brought up the fact that AEW would be live, and unless otherwise noted, NXT would be taped weeks in advance.

AEW would win, in terms of what counts: ratings, gate attendance, social media visibility etc. AEW will be the more successful show and draw more revenue, assuming NXT stays in Full Sail and WWE doesn't try to change anything about the show currently.

Show quality? Who the fukk knows, as fans we can catch both and we all win.

NXT weekly shows are boring but their Takeovers are excellent. Ratings wise I think AEW would win because it's on TNT. Does anyone watch FS1 for anything other than Undisputed?

NXT Reportedly To Use WWE Main Roster Talent If They Go Head-To-Head With AEW - Wrestling Inc.

As previously reported, Fox held a meeting last week with their affiliates to discuss the 2019 fall schedule. During the meeting, Fox confirmed that there are talks about moving NXT to one of their channels.

There has been speculation that NXT may air on FS1 and go head-to-head with AEW. AEW will start on TNT this fall, and is rumored to be airing live on Wednesday nights starting on October 2nd.

Dave Meltzer noted on the latest edition of Wrestling Observer Radio that WWE is "absolutely" planning to use main roster talent on the NXT show if they go head-to-head with AEW. One issue with NXT airing on Wednesday nights is that FS1 airs Big East College Basketball that night during their season.

In its current format, NXT has been airing on the WWE Network since 2014. There was a special airing of NXT on the USA Network as part of "WWE Week" in December of 2017, which averaged 841,000 viewers. RAW that week averaged 2.684 million viewers, while SmackDown pulled in 2.481 million, so NXT averaged less than a third of what the two flagship shows drew.

In addition to NXT possibly airing on FS1, a weekly WWE studio show will air on the network Tuesdays with Renee Young as the host.

If Kyle O'Reilly is playing air guitar live that night ,it's a wrap for AEW that night
