1. Build your brand around your studs

There is no question that NXT has some main event caliber players who could easily move on to the main roster and instantly become threats to win a major championship. Now that you have a cable television platform to showcase your performers, it’s time to strap rockets on the backs of the faces of NXT.

The men and women who have become synonymous with NXT Takeover specials are now free to exploit their talent’s on live television every week. You’ll have the potential to attract new eyes on to the NXT brand with this move. Currently, we as wrestling fans (you’re reading this article aren’t you?) know who the best of the best are in NXT. Now it’s time to show the World who these people are.

This roster already boasts so many performers who could lead the Black and Gold brand. Men such as the NXT Champion Adam Cole, the NXT North American champion Velveteen Dream, Johnny Gargano and Matt Riddle among many others. You also possess a wide array of female performers who can have run with the proverbial ball. NXT Womens champion Shayna Baszler, Io Shirai and Bianca Bel Air have already shown they are more than capable of running the show when given the opportunity.

The continuity is already there for the more recognizable names on NXT programming. Now the WWE can capitalize on that by featuring these men and women nearly every week. Put them in such a big spotlight on live television that can catapult one of them to bring in big ratings. Something that the WWE is desperate to do. However, there is plenty of pie to be distributed across the NXT promotion.
