5 Things to look for in the Wednesday Night Wars


If there's one thing that's been certain so far during the Wednesday Night Wars, it's that you can expect the unexpected. From ratings grabs, to surprise debuts, we've seen quite a bit so far. And the beauty is we're just getting started. So today, we're going to be looking at 5 things to look for as we continue down the Wednesday Night Wars!



5. NXT Viewer Increase?
WWE pulled out all the stops Sunday to prove that NXT are on the same level, if not better than Raw and Smackdown! Shows that Vince will do anything to pull out a win when he is in a war. Now the major question is out of the new audience how much of the key demo did he reach. Also out of the new audience how many of them will tune in Wednesday night. My prediction is NXT does 1.1 million AT LEAST!



4. AEW's first loss

The Wednesday night war was very one sided for 7 straight weeks, but NXT finally pulled out a victory. AEW for the first time have to prove that they can overcome WWE. If they win the viewership after Vince just put all his eggs in one basket that would be huge. This week will be very hard coming off 2 PPV’s! 


3. NXT Tag Team Titles

WWE announced that we will have Keith Lee and Dominik Dijakovic challenge for the NXT Tag Titles tonight. This match will steal the show and hopefully is the main event. Keith Lee over the weekend proved his is super over with the fans, and im wondering if the tag title is the right choice. His potential is skyrocketing and I think singles gold would be better for him.



2. Will Jericho vs Sky Be Enough?


AEW announce two matches at the time of me writing this Jericho vs Sky for the title, and Hangman Page vs MJF. Will these match help AEW move back to the most watched wednesday wrestling show. These matches are worth a view I can tell you that but I dont think La Champion will stop NXT this week. My prediction for AEW is 850,000 views tonight!


NXT Stars Needs Rest!

A few stars are battling injuries on top of fatigue from that crazy week. Adam Cole has had that nagging wrist injury and can't even heel for that and now his midsection appears to be banged up. Pete Dunne is another star that needs some time he could barely stand at Takeover after his match. I see tonight having a lot of filler matches at times due to not overworking the major stars that are banged up.


That's our list! Have any more, lets us know below or on Twitter!

There's something about a good theme that can change your whole perspective on a wrestler.

Enjoy! 5. Samoa Joe Whenever you hear Joe's music you know it's about to go down. What that is exactly, you don't know. Odds are it's the opponent about to get hit with a Coquina Clutch. Either way, the fans clearly love Joe's theme, as they chant his name in tune with the song. The amazing thing about it is that Joe basically has had the same theme his entire freaking career. Unless if your name is Shawn Michaels or The Undertaker, odds are that won't happen. Kudos to you, Joseph from Samoa. 4. Seth Rollins The fans flat out love Seth's theme. And I'm right with them.

5 Reasons CM Punk should join AEW

Image
Okay...You knew a CM Punk blog was going to be coming sooner or later. It's pretty obvious that every and their mother is talking about him making his "return" to wrestling at a show for independent promotion MKWrestling. Simply put, he showed up as a stealthy ninja, delivered a GTS, and made his exit. No one, I repeat no one knew it was him. But that itch has to be there for Punk, right? RIGHT?!?!?! Ahem...Anyway, I don't think it's too much of a stretch to see him being brought up to AEW, given his relationship with the Young Bucks. That being said, here are 5 reasons for CM Punk to join All Elite Wrestling! 5. More Creative Control If there's one thing that CM Punk hated in WWE, it was the fact that they constantly left him in a creative box. He felt that the Straight Edge Society broke up too son. He felt that him facing Triple H at Wrestlemania 30 was a bad idea. No matter what he would say or do, it wouldn't matter. WWE always seemed to have t

5 GOOD Creative decisions by WWE right now

Image
You know...I feel bad for WWE. Despite what many may believe they actually ARE trying to put on a decent show for us. The problem is, is that there are no real wrestling-based writers behind the scenes. And we end up paying for it. But what if I told you there existed GOOD WWE ideas? Would you roll your eyes? Would you agree? Or would you be indifferent? Well today, we are gonna' count down 5 GOOD creative decisions WWE has made. 5. Giving us KO/Zayn as heels As seen on this weeks Smackdown Live, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn teamed with Dolph Ziggler to take on the New Day. Despite them coming up short, imagine this team right now. KO and Sami had a lackluster feud just a few short years ago. Now, they are back both as heels and doing really good work. Say what you will, but it is refreshing to see WWE do a heel team that should be together. And it's even more refreshing to do a heel team that has such great chemistry. Good work WWE, and good work KO and Sami. 4. Us
