Bubba Ray Dudley recently compared AEW and NXT's products to each other and believes that the latter has the edge, as it's more polished. This is compared to AEW's, which he says is far more "indie-rific."
Bubba Ray Dudley is a former professional wrestler known for his time with ECW, WWE, and TNA. He is an eight-time WWE Tag Team Champion along with his good friend D-Von Dudley as part of the famous Dudley Boyz.
The duo were inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame as part of its 2018 class following one of the most successful tag team careers in pro-wrestling history.
Speaking on his Busted Open podcast, WWE Hall Of Famer Bubba Ray Dudley shared his thoughts on WWE NXT's product. He believes the product is very clean, tight, and polished compared to that of AEW, where he says it is easier to spot glaring issues.
"When I watch NXT, I don’t see glaring issues, like I see maybe with AEW. But the work in the ring is solid, it’s tight [in NXT]. Nine times out of 10, It makes psychological sense. The physicality is there. A lot of times,You watch AEW and you know, guys and girls are missing stuff. It can get a little indie-rific at times, whereas the NXT product is a lot more polished and the work rate is extremely tight."
Both NXT and AEW air episodes on Wednesday and both promotions are locking horns in what has been called the Wednesday Night Wars. It does not come as much of a surprise that NXT comes across better than AEW, considering it has been in the business longer, and it also has the financial backing of WWE.
