WWE NXT vs. AEW Resumes in June With Head-to-Head Events
A WWE NXT PLE is set to go head-to-head with an AEW pay-per-view on June 28.
WWE’s Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative, Shawn Michaels, has officially announced that NXT Great American Bash will take place on Sunday, June 28, at 7 PM ET / 4 PM PT. The show will go head-to-head with AEWxNJPW Forbidden Door. It will be the first NXT PLE to air on the CW Network, as WWE’s deal with Peacock ended earlier this year.
“Hello, boys and girls. Now I know everybody’s used to seeing me these days doing my crazy posts on Instagram and TikTok. But everybody’s been asking me when is the first PLE on the CW Network? Well, that’s what this announcement is for. June 28th, CW Network and NXT are going to bring you the Great American Bash,” the WWE Hall of Famer said.
“This partnership is moving forward, and the Great American Bash on June 28th will have a special start time of 7 PM. Tonight, don’t forget to join us on the CW Network at 8 PM, as Tony D’Angelo defends the NXT Championship against Kam Hendrix. Watch us tonight on CW, and don’t forget to join us on June 28th for the Great American Bash,” Shawn Michaels said.
Apart from going head-to-head with AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, WWE NXT Great American Bash will also take place on the same day as TNA Slammiversary. TNA Wrestling recently moved up the start time of the pay-per-view to 3 PM ET to avoid clashing with the AEW event.
With three major promotions hosting shows on the same day, June 28 is shaping up to be a busy night for wrestling fans.
