Back in October of 2019 the Wednesday Night Wars officially kicked off and AEW has been going head to head with NXT ever since.
For the vast majority of the Wednesday Night Wars AEW has come out ahead in the ratings, but Triple H recently told Sports Illustrated that he’s looking at this as a long-term game.
“I’m a believer in the long-term game. You create the right product, and over time, people will find it. I think back to Monday nights years ago, and it looks different now, but there were periods of time when WWE was putting on much better shows and the content was much better, but we were still getting beat. We were not winning ‘the war,’ but we stayed true to who we were.”
“If it’s a flash and it’s exciting at first but you can’t maintain it, then it loses that pizzazz. It’s long-term duration, for me, that’s how you win. I’ve been saying it since the beginning—I’m not concerned about those numbers week-to-week. It’s about trying to put out the best show you can every week.”
