Don’t sleep on NXT Heatwave this year.
AEW will rightfully own the headlines this weekend with it’s All In PPV, but Heatwave is a sneaky good show that’s waiting in the wings. NXT Heatwave airs live on the CW Network on Sunday afternoon from the Bert Ogden Arena in Edinburg, Texas.
You read that right. WWE has weaponized it’s developmental PLE to fire Solo Sikoa sized “pew pew” shots at AEW’s massive Wembley Stadium show. It’s business. It’s petty. It’s awesome.
A changing of the guard
The main event of NXT Heatwave is a fatal four-way match for the NXT Championship. This is the reason to tune into the show. It’ll be a fine match from an in-ring perspective, but it’s a symbol of a changing of the guard at the top of the men’s division in NXT.
