5 Reasons Why NXT Has Been So Successful

#1 Almost all matches have clean finishes

While fans will see screwy finishes or results that are a letdown on Raw and Smackdown, that is rarely the case with NXT. A clean win, regardless of whether it is by a heel or face is common, and those wins and losses aren't commonly done with the aid of outside interference disqualification or countout.

Majority of the time, whether there is a championship on the line or a heated rivalry, usually the result is one mistake costing someone their win. Recent examples of this have been Ricochet's NXT North American Title win and the Undisputed Era's title retention.

When Velveteen Dream picked up wins recently over the likes of Johnny Gargano and EC3, they were hard-fought matches involving a clean finish. There is something to be said for having a heel win a match without having to cheat in order to succeed.

Fans have gravitated to these results and respect all involved for their contribution regardless of who won or lost the match
