With WWE officially announcing that NXT will be moving to USA Network on Wednesdays, All Elite Wrestling (AEW) Executive Vice Presidents, The Young Bucks, have stated that they “aren’t scared” of the competition.
Now AEW’s Chief Branding Officer, and head of AEW’s Women’s Division, Brandi Rhodes has offered her thoughts on the announcement, WWE’s supposed counter programming efforts, and her approach to the impending competition.
Speaking with TribLive, she stated that AEW are “all for it.”
“I definitely can’t speak for them [WWE] and their business planning and thinking, but as far as AEW is concerned we’re all for it,” she admitted. “We are excited to be on Wednesday night. We’ve got amazing things lined up. We can’t wait to get to air.”
Brandi continued, “We’re actually on the TNT campus right now with a ton of meetings and going over all sorts of aspects of rolling into Oct. 2. It’s a wild and great time for everyone. Our fans are going to be shocked, satiated and I think they will keep coming back for more.”
Although AEW debut on TNT in October, their next major event, All Out, will take place at the end of the month on August 31st from the Sears Centre Arena in Hoffman Estates, Illinois.
