It will be interesting to see how AEW performs in the ratings going up against WWE NXT.

Update: USA acquired the rights to NXT rather than FS1. Not sure what happened that it changed, but everything else stays the same. Wednesday nights from 8-10 at the same time as AEW on TNT.

More wresting updates:

Impact will move to AXS TV and air on Tuesday nights at 8pm starting on October 1. The first few weeks will be replays of PPVs from this year, with October 22 being the first regularly scheduled episode of "This is Impact". Anthem, owner of Impact, recently bought a majority stake in AXS TV. AXS TV will continue to show New Japan Wrestling and Women of Wrestling on Saturday nights.

WWE will be on FS1 after all. FS1 will host a weekly WWE talk show every Tuesday night at 11pm called "WWE Backstage" beginning November 5. A special preview episode will air on October 15 following the conclusion of the ALCS Game 3.

WWE will now air 8 hours of programming on television each week:

Monday Night Raw - Mondays from 8pm-11pm on USA (3 hours)
WWE Backstage - Tuesdays from 11pm-12am on FS1 (1 hour)
NXT - Wednesdays from 8pm-10pm on USA (2 hours)
Smackdown - Fridays from 8pm-10pm on FOX (2 hours)

AEW is on to something big.. they have some great performers on their show and I like the idea of them not being a “PG” show and hopefully just as good storylines. Will bring some good competition.
