If WWE is truly serious about making NXT a true 3rd brand, they have to start treating it that way. Over the past month, that has definitely been the case, but will the trend continue after this weekend? It's hard to say, but conventional wisdom points at no.

With the concept of brand warfare at Survivor Series being a tired one, why not use an NXT Takeover special to bring all three brands together under one roof for a cross-promotional melee? This adds importance to the NXT brand and allows them to do something similar to 2019's mid-year NXT TakeOver: XXV event. It doesn't have to be attached to a WWE PPV, just let it stand alone on a Saturday night, like usual, but have RAW and SmackDown bring representatives to the party to make it something special for the NXT brand.

As a matter of fact, does it even have to be brand warfare? Why not bring everyone together and have NXT wrestlers team with RAW and SmackDown wrestlers? Do some brand vs. brand matches, which would include RAW vs. SD, RAW vs. NXT, and SD vs. NXT, and maybe even a triple threat involving all three, but they don't all have to include all three brands.

It's all about getting creative. You can make it about brand warfare, or you can make it a celebration of the entire company getting together to put on the best wrestling show possible. These days, NXT Takeover events are known for being just that, so why not let RAW and SmackDown share some of that glory?
