3 Reasons why the main roster debuts of NXT Superstars after Elimination Chamber went wrong

#3 The crowd didn't respond well enough

The crowd can elevate a moment, or undermine it

The crowd responses and reactions play an enormous role in elevating the drama which the Superstars and the creative team of the WWE try to create each and every week. If the crowd is lively and energetic, then even a perfunctory moment can be turned into a memorable one. On the other side of the spectrum, lack of crowd reactions sucks the entire energy out of even an amazing wrestling spectacle.

The February 18, 2019 episode of Monday Night Raw took place in Lafayette, LA and considering the magnitude of surprise the WWE had in store for us with the debuts of NXT Superstars, the crowd reaction was rather underwhelming throughout the night. Despite having four of the best wrestlers in the world right now making their main roster debuts, there weren't enough reactions on their entries or their extraordinary move sets.

What should have been a well-orchestrated move of adding some mind-boggling wrestlers into the main roster, seems to have turned into a quickly put up show just to shore up the ratings and viewership of Raw.
