Jason’s Take

I’ve looked at quite a comments on the Chairshot Facebook page, and a lot of you appear to be unhappy with the move. The move is going to be nothing but positive for all involved. NXT is not one of the highest rated WWE Network shows, so the move isn’t going to adversely affect Network subscribers. The guys and gals of NXT are now going to be part of a global platform in front of a live audience, which will allow them to grow as wrestlers. It should make the transition for a main roster callup seamless. Regarding comments that AEW isn’t trying to compete with WWE, and WWE is picking on the little guy; What do you expect? All of the Being The Elite videos that mocked WWE and HHH, the knocking of Bayley, Cody Rhodes smashing a throne with a sledge hammer at Double Or Nothing. They brought this one on themselves. Regardless, Wednesday nights are going to be a blast for wrestling fans as we enter the end of summer.

Jason’s Take

AEW has had an impressive streak with its first few announced shows being sellouts. Can they continue the streak for the entire month of October ?

Tony Schiavone Signs With AEW

One of the names people remember on commentary during the Monday Night Wars is Tony Schiavone. Reportedly, Shiavone has signed on with AEW. According to The Wrestling Observer, Schiavone will also remain with MLW, and WWE had initially reached out to him as well

Jason’s Take

When I watched Double Or Nothing, I wasn’t overly impressed with the commentary team. My thought is that they are bringing Schiavone in to work together with JR on commentary. They obviously worked together in the past, so there will be some chemistry between the two.
