AEW remained steady at 1.014 million after 1.018 million last week. NXT dropped 12.3% to 712k.

The WWE shouldn't have put them heads up. NXT looks inferior by comparison and hasn't lent itself well to a two-hour show yet. They need more story angles since they don't have a Jericho, Cody, or Omega.

Responses:

AEW needs to be more tight on the reffing though. From episode 1 it’s been super loose with ‘the rules.’ -- nm - Qale Oct 17, 14:30 1
- They joked about that on Being the Elite this week. - David Oct 17, 14:37
AEW aftershow, kid cosplayed as Orange Cassidy (freshly squeezed) and got a match with Cody! -- (link) - Remlik Oct 17, 14:21 3
- (Don't look at this, Kim! I had it saved to show you tonight!) -- nm - David Oct 17, 14:22 2
  - Kim an OC fan? -- nm* - Remlik Oct 17, 14:25 1
    - She loves that kid. It's either his second or third time at ringside. -- nm - David Oct 17, 14:29
AEW is the more exciting show, NXT is the better pro wrestling show. They need to get out of that venue into a bigger one. -- nm - Remlik Oct 17, 13:59 13
- If NXT leaves Full Sail, this ‘war’ is over. They’ll have tarps covering arenas within months. They only can produce big crowds when it’s a TakeOver. - Qale Oct 17, 14:08 3
  - They could move to a bigger place down there in Florida that can hold more than 300 people. But they don't need to tour and shouldn't - Remlik Oct 17, 14:13 2
    - Sure, but then they’re abandoning another reason why the are at Full Sail: Students there get involved in the technical side of the business, yes? -- nm - Qale Oct 17, 14:20 1
      - if they stay in town they can still use the students. But yeah I get that. -- nm - Remlik Oct 17, 14:24
- I don't see it that way *at all*. I found last night's NXT extremely boring. Meanwhile, Scorpio Sky's getting a tennis shoe over. - David Oct 17, 14:03 8
  - You're talking presentation which I agree, I'm talking in terms of ability - Remlik Oct 17, 14:12 2
    - I'm pretty sure you didn't watch both shows last night from the way you're talking. -- (edited) - David Oct 17, 14:21 1
      - We have to watch NXT tonight. -- nm - Remlik Oct 17, 14:43
  - How much do you think AEW is benefiting from just being new? - Will Hunting Oct 17, 14:10 4
    - I think that's a good question that's hard to answer. So far, the story angles and match selections/set-ups are very good. - David Oct 17, 14:29
    - When I watch, I see the hunger in the wrestlers’ performances I don’t see in the WWE. There is a sense of urgency and of purpose. -- nm - Qale Oct 17, 14:12 2
      - I agree...outside of the NXT crew. I do see that there for that roster. -- nm - Remlik Oct 17, 14:14 1
        
        Other than some very obvious things, I don’t think they’re even necessarily wrestling in a more dangerous way. The combinations are unique. -- nm - Qale Oct 17, 14:17
