Three major professional wrestling shows are set to take place on June 28.<\/p>\n

AEW Forbidden Door and TNA Slammiversary were already scheduled for that date \u2014 and it\u2019s now been announced that NXT Great American Bash is also happening on that Sunday. Great American Bash will go head-to-head with Forbidden Door, while Slammiversary avoids direct competition due to its afternoon start time<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Great American Bash begins at 7 p.m. Eastern time on June 28. It\u2019s the first NXT PLE that will air live on The CW as part of a new multi-year PLE deal between the sides<\/a>. The CW already airs NXT every week and is now carrying PLEs on its broadcast channel as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody\u2019s been asking me, \u2018When is the first PLE on The CW Network?\u2019 Well, that\u2019s what this announcement is for. June 28, CW Network and NXT are going to bring you Great American Bash,\u201d NXT boss Shawn Michaels announced. \u201cThis partnership is moving forward and the Great American Bash on June 28 will have a special start time of 7 p.m.\u201d<\/p>\n

Peacock was previously home to these NXT events, but that deal expired prior to Stand & Deliver 2026, which aired on YouTube while WWE was still working out where NXT PLEs would land. <\/p>\n

Great American Bash, Forbidden Door & Slammiversary details \u2014<\/p>\n

A location for Great American Bash was not mentioned in today\u2019s announcement, so it will presumably be held at the WWE Performance Center. Forbidden Door and Slammiversary are respectively taking place in San Jose, California and Boston, Massachusetts.<\/p>\n

The listed start time for Forbidden Door ticket holders is the same as Great American Bash (7 p.m. Eastern), while Slammiversary is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m.<\/p>\n

WWE Night of Champions is set for this weekend as well, with that PLE happening in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, June 27.<\/p>\n

Excited to finally share this one.@WWENXT<\/a> and @TheCW<\/a> present The Great American Bash Sunday, June 28 at 7e\/4p.<\/p>\n
