<p><strong>Matt Hardy</strong> thinks that the competition between WWE and AEW will be great for all involved.</p>



<p>Hardy recently spoke with <em>Inside the Ropes</em> where he shared his thoughts about what will happen with WWE, now that they seem to have some serious competition in terms of AEW airing their own weekly wrestling show on TNT.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>“It’s great, I mean it’s going to help everyone and it’s beneficial for everyone,” said Hardy.</p></blockquote>

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>“AEW coming out, having this programming, and having a good spot on television. It&#8217;s going to be great for us too because it&#8217;s going to push our creative team, our minds, and our talents to do even better,&#8221; he added.</p></blockquote>


<p>[adace-ad id=&#8221;3395&#8243;]</p>



<p>Hardy did point out, however, that there is one area where WWE will still have the clear edge and that will be in its global reach.</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>“No one is going to be on the global competition level of WWE because it&#8217;s so entrenched everywhere,” said Hardy.</p></blockquote>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Cody Rhodes Says AEW Isn’t Focused On Competing With NXT</strong></h2>



<p><strong>Cody Rhodes</strong> recently <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label=" (opens in a new tab)" href="https://uk.ign.com/articles/2019/09/07/aew-on-tnt-cody-rhodes-wants-quality-over-quantity-ign-first" target="_blank">spoke with IGN</a> about WWE NXT live TV show’s Wednesday timeslot putting it in competition with AEW’s live show on TNT.</p>



<p>According to Rhodes, they are not looking at NXT’s move to
live TV as “competition.”</p>


<p>[adace-ad id=&#8221;7792&#8243;]</p>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>“Our focus is still on providing the best AEW, providing the best alternative. We haven&#8217;t switched over to &#8216;Well how can we compete?&#8217; because we already felt like we had a product that people wanted to see,” said Rhodes.</p></blockquote>



<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>&#8220;We want to provide bell-to-bell sports-centric pro-wrestling. That&#8217;s going to mean longer matches. That&#8217;s going to mean stories being told between the ropes. That means no invisible camera backstage. That&#8217;s gonna mean more of a live-sports approach to our product,” he added.</p></blockquote>
