After trending upwards last week, both AEW and NXT fell flat as the brands respectively build towards AEW Winter is Coming and NXT Deadline. Host Adam Silverstein opens with AEW [5:30] where "Hangman" Adam Page returned to confront Jon Moxley, MJF delivered a lacking promo in his first appearance as AEW champion, William Regal appeared to be written out of the territory and the Jericho Appreciation Society vs. Blackpool Combat Club feud reached new lows. Next, "The Silver King" tackles NXT [39:50] where Shawn Michaels hosted a roundtable to determine the Iron Survivor Challenge participants, DIJAK made his in-ring return and Bron Breakker confronted Apollo Crews at a diner in what felt like a filler episode.
