#3 NXT is Too Sweet

Hall and Nash came to see what all the fuss was about

When it comes to special appearances, NXT is going to be the place to be going forward. The former developmental brand was always the place to tune in to see what newly contracted performers would be appearing soon. At various takeovers, we were introduced to Bobby Roode, Keith Lee, Matt Riddle, and more.

However, tonight, Full Sail University was invaded by legends of the business. Mark Henry, Stephanie McMahon, and Madusa were shown ringside during the second half of the show. Though, that wasn't the surprise that got the fans on their feet.

No, the NXT Universe erupted in "Too Sweet" chants once they saw the Outsiders, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, sitting back and enjoying the show front row. And though it was short, it was a great moment that gave the Black & Gold Brand some much-needed validation from the Attitude Era.
