Neither NXT nor AEW lived up to their normally high ceilings this week, leading host Adam Silverstein to dive into a pair of lackluster episodes and look for bright spots. "The Silver King" talks the Love Her or Leave Her match and the love of InDex conquering all, Malaki Black's in-ring debut against Cody Rhodes, delaying Kenny Omega vs. "Hangman" Adam Page, a strong women's championship build in NXT and whether Andrade El Idolo is actually better off in AEW.
Neither NXT nor AEW lived up to their normally high ceilings this week, leading host Adam Silverstein to dive into a pair of lackluster episodes and look for bright spots. "The Silver King" starts with NXT [7:16] where Johnny Gargano and Dexter Lumis entertained in the main event with the love of InDex conquering all. Next is AEW Dynamite: Homecoming [18:46] where Malakai Black made his in-ring debut against Cody Rhodes in a piece of booking that felt oddly familiar. Other topics on the show: delaying Kenny Omega vs. "Hangman" Adam Page with Christian Cage stepping in, the sluggish Karrion Kross vs. Samoa Joe build, Dakota Kai's tremendous video package, Chris Jericho vs. Juventud Guerrera, unfortunate changes to NXT Prime Target, whether Andrade El Idolo is actually better off in AEW, and remembering "Beautiful" Bobby Eaton.
