Report: Shawn Michaels Felt Long Ring Entrances In NXT Gave Viewers Time To Check AEW
If you’re wondering why NXT has cut back on longer ring entrances or wrestlers are now already in the ring, we have an answer.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, Shawn Michaels felt that long ring entrances gave the viewers more time to check out AEW.
NXT and AEW haven’t gone head-to-head since NXT moved to Tuesdays in April, but now the idea is that there will be more in-ring action or more time for angles to take place.
While Meltzer is unable to confirm the following story, he says, “the story that has gone around” is that Michaels’ wife Rebecca thought entrances were too long and gave people time to switch channels. Michaels brought the note to Triple H and changes were made.
