Just a couple of days back, WWE had announced that this year’s Survivor Series event will not just be a matter of brand supremacy between RAW and SmackDown, as NXT will join the two brands with its own barrage of top Superstars.

The announcement was groundbreaking, and another good step by the company in recent months. NXT’s move to the USA Network coupled with its inclusion in a main roster pay-per-view signals towards a full transition for the brand.

Over the past year, we have seen Superstars such as Johnny Gargano and Tommasso Ciampa appear on the main roster for a few matches before returning to their roots.

This week’s SmackDown provided even more NXT Superstars to prove their mettle attacking and taking on some of the best SmackDown talents.

The entire episode of SmackDown proved to be a good preview of what to expect from Survivor Series, and a few wins for the Black & Gold Superstars over the main roster Superstars shows that the company holds the NXT talent in high regard and won’t just be burying them at Survivor Series.

This preview is sure to increase fans’ interest in Survivor Series this year!
