While there will be a “Countdown” pre-show, the show itself begins at 3 p.m. ET — airing for free on The CW in the United States, and on Netflix pretty much everywhere else. The show is mostly made of title matches. The one for the NXT championship is a Fatal 4way, and one’s a Triple Threat that will start with two belts and end up with only one (it’s a unification bout; read more about WWE’s history with those and some interesting trivia about said history here). Along with those and three other title tilts, we’ll also have a submission match. And who knows what else Chef Shawn might serve up opposite AEW’s main event at Wembley? It can be a lot to keep up with, even if you watch every week. Luckily for you Cagesiders, our staff
