WEDNESDAY NIGHT WAR:
AEW DYNAMITE vs. NXT
FACTOR 1: MATCHES
AEW = This didn't really exist.
NXT = Every match was a decent contest, for the most part. I'm still underwhelmed by Taynara, so that's not surprising, but the rest were rock solid.
WINNER: NXT
FACTOR 2: PROMOS
AEW = Again, it wasn't really an episode. No points.
NXT = No promos.
WINNER: n/a
FACTOR 3: STORYLINES
AEW = Again, it wasn't really an episode. No points.
NXT = No storylines, really.
WINNER: n/a
FACTOR 4: SCHEDULING / PACING
AEW = Again, it wasn't really an episode. No points.
NXT = A series of matches with very minimal filler in between. Sometimes, that's a little too much, but for this instance, I was totally okay with what we got.
WINNER: NXT
EXTRA CREDIT BONUS ROUND!!!
I don't want to deduct a point from AEW for a non-episode. I'd rather all those employees get a week off than to have another show just for the hell of it.
NXT gains a point for having matches that were a little different with Austin Theory and Shotzi Blackheart, rather than just repeating feuds we've seen a bunch of times.
POINT ADJUSTMENTS: AEW (+0 / -0) / NXT (+1 / -0)
THIS WEEK'S WINNER = NXT
That's my pick for the better show of the week, but how do YOU stand?
Which was better, Dynamite or NXT?
