News On Triple H Meeting With Talent About NXT Moving
Added 2021-04-01 18:26:16 +0000 UTCFightful reached out to several wrestlers and members of the staff, who vehemently denied that Triple H said anything resembling that they were "bullied" off of Wednesday nights as reported. Instead, we were told that Triple H focused heavily on the reasons for the move to Tuesday nights, telling the NXT roster that going on a night after Raw was a good thing for the brand. Triple H said that the move had been in the works for a while, which we've been told is true, as USA felt this out as far back as last year. HHH also said that there are a lot of opportunities with the replay being on Peacock, and he hopes that people focus more on the show than the viewership now that the change is happening.
Dave Meltzer corrected his original recounting on Twitter, noting that two people reached out to say the "bully" line didn't happen.

2021-04-01 20:57:45 +0000 UTCHonestly, even if it were what they considered "bullying", I don't think that losing in ratings vs AEW constitutes as bullying at all, especially when you consider that they didn't feel this way back during the Monday Night Wars when they were behind Nitro for at least a year. Either way, I'm glad this is happening, cause now I can watch NXT, Dynamite, and iMPACT on different days so long as work doesn't schedule me during those days too often. Though, iMPACT may have to wait as I'm WAAAAAYYY behind on them, namely about 3 months or so behind.

2021-04-01 19:14:57 +0000 UTCI'm guessing the bully line was paraphrased by whoever passed that info to Meltzer.
