They were reports today where Israel was unhappy with the name. Of course they arent going to say that on tv.

Bruh it's absolutely WWE caving to Zios
I will gladly take the L on this as I was at work all day hadn't heard anything about wrestling news since early morning.
I was pretty excited to have the name invasion come back too, but not exactly the best look to name a show invasion on the exact anniversary of the invasion that killed 1200 people. I don’t think you need to be a Zionist to think that’s not a good idea.

They really should’ve did this as a PLE and not an NXT show and did it in November during the weekend of Survivor Series. It would’ve made perfect sense.
Big Boss Man is right.

There's a good reason they're doing this next week. AEW is intentionally competing with NXT this week with a loaded "Homecoming" show, so NXT needs something big to counter.

The two companies are perpetually in competition but to frame it as AEW intentionally competing with NXT is wild since it's deadass the 6th Anniversary show, which they do every year on the anniversary of Dynamite :lol

Blame playoff baseball for that.

Maybe could've moved to TNT that night, but it's because of baseball being on TBS that Wednesday, so not really intentional

To be fair, I don’t even care if AEW wants to counter program WWE because WWE has been doing it to AEW all year. This is the war everybody wanted since the 90s. Let’s get some competition going.

I don't disagree. I just find it ironic that when WWE intentionally competes the mindset is WWE is Evil. When AEW intentionally competes they are given a free pass.

When WWE has been preempted in the past like 10 years they just move to a different channel (Fox to FS1, USA to SyFy, etc).

Thats up to the people who own the Network man, come on lol. They also did move nights sometimes in the early years because the network didnt move them to another network.

Like Raw moved nights because of a dog show for many years.

Stevie Richards putting Oba over. Finally some positive comments.

Oba should retire Brock imo.

Oba dropped the belt . So who we got for next Champ?



Myles Bourne
Ricky Starks
Tony D'Angelo
Dion Lennox
Joe Hendry




I think it will be Tony D who does win as it's looking that way but it will be interesting to see how this goes with him. He was meant to go Main Roster but seems like he's being built to be next in line for the belt.

Ricky has already had both belts and needs time to get back over with the Fans as a heel. He is more suited to being one and I'm looking forward to his run and let NXT fans who might not have seen him as a heel.

Joe Hendry is probably fan Favorite and will be Dion but in the future he will be the star out of the whole lot if he keeps going the way he has been. Dion v Joe No DQ match should be fun. Wonder if Dion will say I've got this again to Darkstate Members again. Causing a tiny lil bit friction as it seems like Shawn Michaels thinks he has something about him and I think he is the stand out member of the group

@R-Troop @Skyefire and everyone else who watches. Any thoughts on who will be Mens NXT Champ soon ?

The CW app has now added a 24/7 NXT live streaming channel. Likely only going back as far as the debut on CW, but I can't confirm that.

NXT's Atlanta show coming up has reportedly been canceled and moved to the Performance Center. The reason is due to an issue with the parking lot where their tech trucks would be parked.
