NXT gonna have to get out and go on the road if they want to compete with AEW on a weekly basis in the ratings :yeshrug:

no one wants to watch a studio show with 100 people in attendance. it's just not a good look especially when the competition is in arenas.
they should send NXT on the road and fill up small 2,000-3,000 seat venues on Wednesday nights :yeshrug:
AEW is fresh and has a lot of momentum so they'll always attract more viewers than NXT. Moving NXT to another setting won't change that.

I was only watching Takeovers to begin with, NXT was never must watch for me so it’s easy to not care when AEW is up against it.

NXT is doing such a better job at setting up and hyping upcoming matches than AEW that it's almost embarrassing. AEW can't even promote the matches they announced on social media months ago while every week NXT gets 2-4 matches announced for the next week and another 2-3 for 2 weeks later and another 2-3 set up for after that.

NXT features consistently solid wrestling and Mauro is easily the best and most entertaining in the booth :ehh:

First time seeing Rhea Ripley :whoo:

I like Bianca Belair

Dude who almost beat Strong had some athletic moves. That is the biggest change I've seen, since not watching wrestling for years. Even the big/medium size wrestlers have cruiserweight moves. Although I realize most of the NXT roster is on the small side.

Are they heading towards War Games with the Undisputed Era vs Velveteen Dream, Ciampa, Balor and someone else?

Not only that, but in a promotion they keep saying wins/losses matter, a number one contender match was between two mid carders with 75% losing records. They should either 1. Wait until they have enough shows for a win/loss record to actually have numbers before they go all in on that shyt or 2. Strictly go by win/loss records for all title matches.

They've been saying since JANUARY that the wins/losses were going to matter and they were going to have a system and base their booking around it. It's the middle of October, they still haven't explained anything about it and booking is disregarding it already.
