It looks like battle between NXT and AEW has reached New York City's subways. A post from Reddit user /pennsavvy posted a photo in the r/SquaredCirlce subreddit on Wednesday that showed a poster advertising NXT's weekly Wednesday night show, which had been defaced with the words "AEW," "Be Elite" and "TNT" in white spray paint. NXT and AEW Dynamite have been going head-to-head on Wednesday nights each week since Oct. 2, with the latter brininging in a higher viewership almost every week. Most of the AEW roster is currently on Chris Jericho's "Rock 'N' Wrestling Rager at Sea: Part Deux" wrestling cruise, while NXT is gearing up for the Worlds Collide pay-per-view this Saturday night in Houston, Texas.
The battle for New York City is getting ugly. from r/SquaredCircle
Based on the reactions on social media, fans on both sides had a lot to say about the graffiti.

I do not condone subway graffiti but that would be a great viral campaign by AEW. You pay for the ads, we make them cool... https://t.co/CLCqYuUZdt

Damn I thought AEW was funded by a billionaire, but they can't even hire their own billboard people, and instead have to graffiti up the other guys https://t.co/vHottv5lTW

Any dumbass that spray paints that on a NXT poster is a idiot that like AEW or just a plain jackass who likes to spray paint for attention.
