Triple H On Moving NXT Off Wednesday: I Don't Hear Anyone Asking Others To Move Off Wednesday

Triple H doesn't know about NXT moving off Wednesday.

Switching to Tuesday for two weeks due to the NHL Playoffs on USA Network served NXT well as the brand did its second-highest viewership of the year and pulled above its Wednesday average in ratings when running head-to-head against AEW.

Speaking on the NXT media call, Triple H was asked about the possibility of NXT moving off Wednesday.

"I'm happy with where we are," he said. "There are conversations around all of our products at all times, the best place for it to sit, the best place for it to work, all of that. Funny, I don't hear anybody else asking about people moving on Wednesday since we were always on Wednesdays. It comes down to a question of where the show best sits, not only for us, but our partners and wherever they want to go to. We're open to doing the best business we can, but it's not as simple as it's our decision and we just put the show where we want. Those decisions are made by partners and everything else along the way. People tend to believe what they want to believe, but it's not a concern to me. We go out to put the best show on that we can put on, every week with the talent we have, which I consider the best in the world, and do the best show we can. As far as where it sits, those are business questions that come down to WWE and our partners."

When Triple H was informed that AEW originally wanted to run on Tuesdays -- the company originally filed for the trademark Tuesday Night Dynamite -- but couldn't due to the NBA airing on TNT on Tuesdays, Triple H gave a sarcastic, "Yeah, I know. Not like every other channel just has free air."

Fightful Select previously reported that WWE has been open to the idea of NXT moving nights after USA Network threw the idea out to them a couple of months ago. The report stated "the network has a lot of faith and a good relationship in WWE, but those we've spoken to have said they aren't as committed to the 'competition' aspect of NXT on Wednesday night considering it costs them viewers.

Fightful will have live coverage of NXT beginning at 8 p.m. ET on Wednesday.
