We stick with the Wednesday Night Wars after that, but pivot over to NXT, where the first batch of big New Year's Evil announcements have just been made (03:20). For now, it looks like an NXT Championship rematch will headline the show.

It's back over to AEW from there, as Kenny Omega learned his next World Title challenger (05:12), with the bout set to go down at New Year's Smash on 30 December. Finally, we talk Dakota Kai (08:12), detailing the real reason she is currently off WWE television.
