NXT Battleground will no longer go head-to-head with AEW Double or Nothing.

WWE's longest head-to-head battle with All Elite Wrestling came in the form of the"Wednesday Night Wars." From October 2019 until April 2021, WWE NXT and AEW Dynamite aired their live shows simultaneously, both being broadcast on Wednesdays at 8 PM ET on USA Network and TNT, respectively. WWE pivoted the black and gold brand to Tuesdays after being defeated by AEW in the ratings for nearly 80 consecutive weeks.

As reported by reputable insider account @WrestleVotes, WWE is pushing NXT Battleground to June 9th. The developmental premium live event was previously scheduled to take place on May 26th. WWE is pivoting the location as well, moving NXT Battleground from Enmarket Arena in Savannah, GA to Las Vegas's UFC Apex.
