This year, AEW was supposed to come out with their own version of War Games. It was called ‘Blood and Guts’. The silly name aside, it sounded like an exciting prospect.
Given the talent in the AEW roster and the Elite vs Inner Circle rivalry, Blood and Guts would have been a banger of a match.

However, NXT trumped AEW in this arena. The NXT Universe has always responded extremely positively to the War Games concept.
The structure is built to withstand eight men battling it out for one team to emerge victorious. Inside the four walls of the rectangular structure, flesh meets steel and wrestlers explore their creativity.
This year, the NXT Universe will be seeing the most exciting edition in the short history of the event. The Undisputed Era made their return to NXT to bring the fight to Pat McAfee’s posse.
NXT Takeover will feature some interesting matches

At NXT Takeover 30, Adam Cole beat Pat McAfee in a superb match. It was an extremely good match for McAfee’s debut. It even cemented Cole’s legacy as NXT’s greatest asset. McAfee lost but his issues with the Undisputed Era were not yet over.
At NXT Takeover 31, Ridge Holland attacked Adam Cole after Kyle O’Reilly’s brutal war with Finn Balor. The former NXT UK wrestler was working on the orders of McAfee, who returned two weeks after the Takeover.
He joined forces with Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan, and the former NXT UK Champion Pete Dunne also aligned with him to form NXT’s newest faction.
The Undisputed Era made their return today and took the fight to McAfee, Dunne and the NXT Tag Team Champions. They will be hellbent on reclaiming their place atop the NXT mountain, and the path to that runs through War Games.
