NXT has been streaming live on the USA Network since September but the only time the company was able to defeat AEW in the ratings was when the main roster invaded the show this past week.

This proves that many wrestling fans will only tune into the show if big names are part of it, which is something that WWE can't do when the brand split is put back into effect moving forward.

Tonight was the night where NXT introduced themselves to the main roster crowd and hoped that it was enough to bring faces to their product on Wednesday night. The ratings are there if they have managed to boost them as part of an invasion storyline so they could be pointed towards NXT once again.

Raw is already seen as WWE's flagship show and SmackDown has been dominating the ratings since its move over to FOX so tonight was all about ensuring that the WWE Universe knew that NXT was the future, the future is now and it's streaming every week live on a Wednesday night.
