Welcome to this week’s Wednesday Night Wars open discussion thread. After last week’s video packages we’re back to a regular episode of NXT — well, as “regular” as it can be in the Performance Center and without any fans, especially building up to a segmented weekly approximation of TakeOver Tampa Bay — against an AEW Dynamite that’s not Blood & Guts, but DOES feature Chris Jericho possibly getting into a promo war with an intelligent drone.
On tonight’s cards:
AEW Dynamite
- AAA Mega Campeón Championship Match: Kenny Omega (c) vs. Sammy Guevara
- Matt Hardy and Chris Jericho “meet face-to-face”
- Parking Lot Brawl: Best Friends vs. Lucha Bros.
- Cody vs. Jimmy Havoc
- Luchasaurus vs. Wardlow in an ill-advised mid-pandemic Lumberjack Match
NXT
- appearances from NXT Champion Adam Cole and Papa Triple H
- Roderick Strong vs. Matt Riddle
- Tyler Breeze vs. Austin Theory
- Number one contender ladder match qualifier: Xia Li vs. Aliyah
- Number one contender ladder match qualifier: Candice LeRae vs. Kayden Carter
