WWE vs AEW was the main topic of discussion in every wrestling fan’s mind about a few weeks ago. The heat between AEW and WWE fans was at its zenith. And, the reason behind that was the clash between AEW’s Double or Nothing and WWE’s NXT Battleground. Both PLEs were about to be broadcasted on the same day which initiated an unofficial battle between both companies.
Before the event, it was rumored that AEW might perform better than WWE. However, there are some pictures and videos that are currently going viral on the internet. Those clips clearly suggest that WWE still rules over the wrestling industry.

Not only this, but an AEW employee made a colossal blunder. That blunder forced the fans to think if Tony Khan’s employee is also a WWE fan. The employee accidentally posted the news of WWE Night of Champions instead of Double or Nothing on the AEW scrum. This hilarious mistake made several fans go crazy with laughter.

Wrestling fans reiterated the fact that all these things combined prove that AEW still has to cover a long way when it comes to beating WWE in the professional wrestling world.
The reason why fans are taking special interest in the AEW Double or Nothing is because the event aired at the same time NXT Battleground occured. There was a lot of hype around WWE vs AEW that the media showered Tony Khan with questions regarding this unofficial battle.
