#1 More fluid crossovers to come
WWE often acknowledges performers’ NXT histories on the main roster, like acknowledging that men like Shinsuke Nakamura and Bobby Roode were NXT Champions, or the reputation The Revival established in Orlando.
Just the same, there are those Superstars who are more wholly reinvented on the main roster, or for whom it isn’t beneficial to acknowledge their pasts. Bray Wyatt, for example, is a bigger threat without the acknowledgment that he was a product of trial and error to reinvent Husky Harris as a serious threat. Likewise, Seth Rollins’ NXT Championship history didn’t exactly fit the narrative when he debuted as part of the insurgent Shield.
The sheer fact that NXT Superstars are being featured on the traditional main roster in the build to Survivor Series—let alone at the PPV itself—better establishes the brand as part of one unified WWE Universe. If they actually win in decisive fashion over their Raw and SmackDown colleagues?
That will set up NXT talent to be a more natural extension of any future draft scenario, and to potentially set up brand crossing feuds for other major events like WrestleMania.
