AEW Collision commentator Kevin Kelly has commented on Dynamite and WWE NXT going head-to-head on October 10, 2023.
WWE presented a stacked episode of NXT that featured appearances from John Cena, LA Knight, The Undertaker, Cody Rhodes, Asuka, Paul Heyman, and more.
AEW gave fans a Title Tuesday episode of Dynamite that included a buy-in show on YouTube 30 minutes beforehand.
The numbers came in at 921,000 viewers for NXT and 0.30 in the 18-49 demo, while AEW Dynamite scored 609,000 and 0.26.
In the wake of the numbers news, Kevin Kelly has commented on the head-to-head on Twitter, writing:
As someone who worked in WWF during the Monday Night Wars, I thought last night was a win for both sides. Fan excitement and interest has people talking. Ratings move at a glacial pace. Let's enjoy! BTW, #AEWCollision starts 1 hour early at 7/6c. @AEW
