WWE has been using multiple main roster stars on NXT as of late, and this is WWE CEO Nick Khan’s strategy.
Nick wants NXT to be a legitimate 3rd brand of WWE, and not just a developmental show.
This way, WWE is trying to boost the viewership for NXT and get more money for NXT’s TV deal.
On this week’s episode of NXT, Seth Rollins defeated Bron Breakker in the main event to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.
According to the Wrestling Observer, the next top WWE star to go to NXT might be Ronda Rousey:
“There are plans for more major stars to work NXT like Rollins did this week. One name that was at least talked about was Rousey, or perhaps even having Rousey & Baszler defend the Women’s Tag Team Titles there.”
On last night’s episode of SmackDown, WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler defeated NXT Women’s Tag Team Champions Alba Fyre & Isla Dawn to become the Unified Women’s Tag Team Champions.
Raquel Rodriguez was ringside for this match and Ronda called her out about it after the match.
Rodriguez said she’s here to issue a challenge for the Titles that “we” never lost. Shayna asked who is “we”, because Liv Morgan is out of action with an injury.
Liv then made her return and she joined Raquel in the ring to have a face-off with the champions.
