If you've been enjoying seeing Raw and Smackdown talent on NXT, you're in luck.
Fightful Select has been told that the crossover between Raw and Smackdown talent on the NXT brand is set to continue, even after the slight rebrand that we've seen on WWE's Tuesday night show. We've seen the Brawling Brutes, Finn Balor, Nikki ASH, Doudrop and several others make appearances on the brand.
Sources that Fightful spoke with say that the crossover has been beneficial for NXT, in numerous ways. One pointed to the increased consistent viewership of the last couple of months. Another highlighted the fact that talent brought in can evaluate those they work with, and help establish where they are in their preparedness for Raw and Smackdown, in addition to the experience factor helping out with the roster.
Not that it's much of a surprise, but also we're told that Roxanne Perez made a good impression at Smackdown.
