Report: The CW Requested NXT Move To Wednesday For November 6

It would appear that The CW was responsible for next week’s episode of NXT moving to Wednesday night.

The November 6 episode of NXT will air live on Wednesday night, and it will take place at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia. According to the latest episode of WrestleVotes Radio on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass, the move was requested by The CW, not WWE.

It was originally speculated that WWE moved NXT off of the schedule to avoid going head-to-head with the 2024 Presidential Election coverage. However, WrestleVotes said that WWE was not opposed to airing on Tuesday night. The CW asked WWE to move this episode to Wednesday night since the network will be hosting its own Election Night coverage.

The show is expected to have a large ECW presence due to the venue and some of the announced special guests. Bubba Ray Dudley/Bully Ray, Rob Van Dam, Dawn Marie and Francine are currently advertised for the taping. While he was not explicitly confirmed, Nunzio is expected to be involved in a segment with Tony D’Angelo and The Family.

NXT will return to its normal Tuesday night timeslot on November 12.

Tony D’Angelo explains what kind of champion he wants to be

In addition to his North American title reign, Tony D’Angelo is a two-time NXT Tag Team Champion and Heritage Cup winner. Despite those accolades, he knows that some people disagree with him being a champion in NXT. He wants to be a great champion but he also wants to prove those doubters wrong and erase any doubts they have.

“I want to prove to a lot of people out there who don’t necessarily think I was the guy for the job or whatever they might say — I want to prove all of them wrong. I want to be a dominant champion, I want to be a great champion, I want to make sure that [holds up his championship] the lineage on this title stays intact,” D’Angelo explained. “Because there’s a lot of people that came before me that are doing great things now. Lot of big names on the list. So, I want to keep the tradition alive and make sure that there’s no doubt in anybody’s mind that Tony D’Angelo is supposed to be a champion.”
