NXT and AEW delivered divergent but successful shows coming off special events. Host Adam Silverstein opens with a second look at NXT Battleground [5:15], arguably the brand's best post-TakeOver premium event, before diving into the return of Baron Corbin, debut of Mustafa Ali, continuation of Carmelo Hayes' title reign, first night for Tiffany Stratton as women's champion and the end of the Gigi Dolan vs. Jacy Jayne feud. "The Silver King" then explores AEW Dynamite [23:35] featuring the official return announcement for CM Punk, real heat for Don Callis and Konosuke Takeshita, Adam Cole & Britt Baker vs. Chris Jericho & Saraya, a potential elevation for Swerve Strickland and more.
