NXT Instructed To Stack November 4 Show
WWE NXT and AEW Blood and Guts are scheduled to air against each other on November 4. NXT has been instructed to stack its episode for that date to compete directly with the AEW special.
The November 4 episode of NXT will follow the Halloween Havoc event that takes place on October 31. AEW Blood and Guts is set to emanate from the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida.
NXT is expected to move from its current Tuesday slot to Wednesday on The CW network. The shift is anticipated because a Tuesday broadcast would face preemption on many stations due to the competing AEW programming.
