NXT and AEW Announce Commercial-Free Opening Matches for This Week

NXT and AEW announced the opening matches for this Wednesday’s shows, and advertised that they’ll be commercial-free.

NXT will start the show with an NXT Championship match between Adam Cole and Finn Balor.

AEW will start with Kenny Omega & Hangman Page vs. The Lucha Bros.

NXT first advertised the commercial-free aspect of their match, then AEW said that their match will also not have commercials, “as always,” since the opening match on Dynamite typically never has any commercials anyway.

Kicking off #AEW Dynamite this Wednesday, it’s a dream tag team match as #TheLuchaBrothers face Kenny Omega & Hangman Adam Page, and as always – it will be commercial-free!
