WWE superstar formerly known as Nikki Cross has been getting a major push of late. WWE's resident superhero, who now goes by the name Nikki A.S.H., won the MITB match this weekend and then managed to cash in and become the RAW Women's Champion as well.

As per WrestingNews, the real reason behind Nikki's push is the fact that Vince McMahon is elated with her superhero gimmick. She is rewarded for coming up with the gimmick as it is seen as a big hit with the children.

“Vince loves the gimmick and feels that she has opened up a world of opportunities to sell more merchandise and for her to do some community outreach with the kids. She took the initiative and she got rewarded last night. She brings a lot to the table and she made herself much more valuable with this superhero gimmick."

Many thought Nikki's new gimmick is immature and wouldn't work. However, Nikki won her first RAW women's championship this week by cashing in on Charlotte Flair.
