WWE SmackDown: 3 things we are glad didn’t happen on this week’s episode (January 29, 2019)

#2 Heavy Machinery get overlooked

Heavy Machinery already found themselves in the mix for the championship

NXT has seen a lot of wrestlers getting called up to the main roster in the past few years. Being the developmental brand, that is exactly what the purpose of NXT was, until it became as good as the other two main brands of WWE.

However, some star performers from NXT have been called up to the main roster and then wasted, which has been heartbreaking. While Mojo Rawley, No Way Jose, and Dana Brooke may not have been huge stars, Tye Dillinger, Sanity, and Ember Moon definitely are, but got drowned into the lower cards and have largely disappeared from weekly televised matches.

With Heavy Machinery being two of the six new call-ups, it’s good to see them get a chance and get in the spotlight right away.

While The Bar, The Usos, and The New Day are already established teams, SmackDown has The Good Brothers, Sanity, and Primo and Epico who could have gotten the fourth spot in the match, but Heavy Machinery was lucky to take that spot.
