5 NXT stars who are lost on the main roster 

#4 The Ascension

The Ascension has descended on the main roster

If something could define 'Failure in the main roster', The Ascension would perfectly fit that definition. The Ascension was a big thing in NXT, and they were considered very dangerous and dominating during their good times on the developmental roster.

The Ascension is the longest reigning NXT tag-team champs, and they remain undefeated till date. But, can anyone imagine that a tag-team holding such a strong position, are occasional jobbers on the main roster?

Back in NXT, they were dominating, dark, gothic, and attacking tag-team but, can we say the same thing about them on the main roster? I don't think so. As soon as they entered the main roster, they were not given proper feuds and As soon as, people started losing their interest which led to their disappearance.

We've seen Curtis Axel and Bo Dallas get a new life on the main roster, but only time can tell whether the same will happen with The Ascension or not.
