A new report from WrestleVotes suggests that WWE NXT could be moving away from Wednesday nights.
A decision isn’t expecting to be made right away, but talks are said to be ongoing. With NXT airing on Tuesday this week and next due to NHL playoffs, those numbers could play a part in a decision being reached.
Over the past month or so, discussions have transpired regarding NXT moving off Wednesday nights. No decision imminent, however, talks are ongoing. The numbers over the next 2 weeks might have some impact on this decision.

NXT transitioned to USA Network with a live, two-hour show just one year ago. The black and yellow brand has gone head-to-head against AEW Dynamite on TNT, with AEW “winning” the viewership and ratings battle more often than not.
In recent weeks, NXT has garnered over 800,000 viewers without Dynamite airing in the same slot. Their highest number was 1.179 million viewers for a one-hour broadcast on September 18, 2019.
