WILL NXT RUN AGAINST AEW IN NEW JERSEY?, GREAT SEATS AVAILABLE FOR XFL AND WHAT THAT MEANS, ALEXA BLISS AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2019-12-27 10:00:00

I see the XFL is doing a lot of pushes for discounted tickets, specifically pointing out seats in the lower bowls of stadiums.  Do you think this is a bad sign?

I think it's a sign they havent sold a lot of the lower bowl tickets, yes.  I can't say it's a bad sign until we see how empty the stadiums are!

Do you think WWE will counter-program AEW going into the Prudential Center by putting NXT in Madison Square Garden?

No, I checked after you asked this question.  The Garden, the Nassau Coliseum and The Barclays Center all have events booked that day.  I guess NXT could run the Hulu Theater in the MSG complex, but I think that's a waste of their time.  Let AEW have the day and do your own thing in Florida.

Alexa Bliss is doing a pilot episode of a podcast?  What does that mean?

A pilot is a test episode.  It may end up being heard by the audience or it might never be seen by the masses.  It's more of a way to test out how it flows and works and how Bliss does in that role.

Why would WWE change a title at a live event like they did last night with Andrade?

A few reasons.  One, they have a story they want to do and this was part of it.  Two, to give back to the audience that came to the show at MSG.  Three, to try and give the impression that anything can happen and the live events are something fans shouldn't miss.

Has there been any word on the match airing anywhere?  Was it taped?

WWE had two or three cameras taping last night's show, so they have the content if they need to utilize it later.  I have not heard of the show or even the match airing in its entirety on YouTube or the WWE Network.
