WWE opens the new Wednesday Night Wars tonight as NXT officially makes the move to a LIVE broadcast on USA... tonight being a 1 hour broadcast starting at 7 PM from its home base at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Fla.

of course... WWE trying to get a jump on AEW... whose Wednesday night show starts 2 weeks from tonight

the big story for tonight... the Undisputed ERA tries to complete Adam Cole's Golden Prophecy as Roderick Strong looks to pick up the final piece of the puzzle by taking the NXT North American Championship off of the Velveteen Dream

Matt Riddle takes on Killian Dain in a street fight

and a fatal 4 way match to determine Shayna Baszler's next challenger for the NXT Women's Championship... Mia Yim vs. Io Shirai vs. Candice LaRae vs. Bianca Belair

Plus will WWE have any "Act 1 surprises or announcements" for the debut show?

for the uninitiated... Mrs. Johnny Wrestling... Candice LaRae

considering tonight's only 1 hour long (according to my guide channel)... I'm gonna say the 3 matches listed in the OP will be the only matches of the night

I know... I even included a gif of Candice

WWE has already ruined the Fiend. Fiend is white hot and what does WWE do last night? Not bring him on at all.

he's not... nor has he ever been... a Smackdown act

they've kept him exclusively on Raw

expecting him on SD last night was a fool's errand

Thats the point. Make it special when he is there. He will be on Raw every week now that he is in the title hunt.

They have not ruined the Fiend yet.

No need to put him in a thousand squash matches.

Here's how AEW can win Wednesday nights. NXT still has no live tv deals in Canada or England. Meanwhile AEW is probably signing a deal with TSN, basically ESPN for Canada, and itv in England, which is also a big network over there. They will have to settle for watching on the WWEN on a 24 hour delay.

It's too bad AEW isn't on Monday instead.

so now I'm confused

I'm watching last week's NXT episode... and Nigel just said there will be 2 hours

1st hour on USA... 2nd hour on WWE Network

It goes to two hours on USA on Oct 2. The deal came together so quickly they didn't have time to work around Suits.

Just for the first two weeks is it this way. Then it’ll be both hours on USA. The show suits has two episodes remaining in its final season run these two weeks.

right... but tonight's episode is a split episode with hour 1 on USA and hour 2 on the WWE Network

do you put your biggest matches on USA or the end of the show?

They have it booked through December. I guess they don't plan on touring anytime soon.
