WWE legend and AEW superstar Chris Jericho took another shot at NXT. The Demo God took the help of Keith Lee’s segment to poke fun at Triple H’s show.

Chris Jericho has now become the self-proclaimed Demo god. This happened after his match at Fyter Fest had a better rating than the main event of NXT: The Great American Bash.

This week, Dynamite drew a 0.32 rating in the key 18-49 demographic. NXT could gather half of that number with a 0.16 rating. Jericho would take another dig using this stat on Twitter.

WWE NXT fails to climb up the ratings even with intriguing storylines and shows

This was week 44 of the Wednesday night war between AEW and WWE. AEW picked up another win over NXT.

AEW Dynamite scheduled a high-profile main event with Chris Jericho taking on Orange Cassidy. This feud has impressed one and all as Cassidy has managed to step up to the legend of Jericho.

Cassidy had an upset win in the main event against Jericho refereed by WWE veteran Mike Chioda. This is the start of the main event star in AEW who doesn’t have a WWE background.

WWE NXT produced an extremely great show as well. Keith Lee had a fireball on his face in a mind-boggling segment to build his NXT title match with Karrion Kross.

In the main event, Velveteen Dream made an unexpected return against Cameron Grimes and KUSHIDA. However, the main attraction would still be the big buildup to Adam Cole and Pat McAfee at NXT Takeover: XXX.

AEW ranked #9 in the Cable Top 150 for the 18-49 demo while NXT where miles behind at #65 in the same category.
