NXT is the development Territory of WWE which is improving its ratings day after day under the guidance of Shawn Michaels whom we all often refer as Shawn Michaels. NXT had to suffer a lot after the introduction of AEW and mostly during the covid 19 pandemic. The show had faced extremely difficult time at a point.
But recently WWE has implemented a new policy to boost the ratings and viewership of the NXT which is working pretty fine. They have started to bring main roster wrestlers to the NXT and they are working with the stars of the NXT which has Don a fantastic job so far to boost the ratings and viewership also.

Seth Rollins Recently Returned To NXT
“When we had the opportunity to get Mustafa Ali, I’ve always been a big fan of his. It’s something that from a very quiet standpoint, I would see him here and there on the main roster and every once in a while, I would just reach out and ask like, ‘Gosh, if he’s not doing anything, if you guys aren’t doing something with him, I’d love to have him down here.’
“It never quite worked out for us until just as of late, and I’m telling you what. He’s a guy that I in my opinion, we’ve just seen the tip of the iceberg with him and we plan on cutting him loose and unleashing him here in NXT to really work and live out his potential here on the NXT brand as we go into the future.”
Some of the biggest names of the main roster has recently worked in the NXT.
