#3. Why is the WWE NXT Champion appearing more on RAW than his own brand?
WWE seems to be building towards a mammoth rivalry for TakeOver 36. Samoa Joe appeared on NXT last week and offered to resign before announcing that he is now an active member of the roster.
He asked NXT General Manager to grant him a match against Karrion Kross, and William Regal was more than happy to make the match official.

Kross will now defend his NXT Championship against Samoa Joe at TakeOver 36. Judging by how things have been going on RAW and NXT, is WWE already giving away the result of the match at TakeOver?
The Herald of Doomsday has competed in two matches on RAW over the past couple of weeks. He only appeared on NXT for a few seconds a couple of weeks ago to take out William Regal and did not appear at all this week.
WWE could end up moving Kross to the red brand for good after SummerSlam. Therefore, it looks like Joe will be defeating Kross at TakeOver to take his NXT Championship away from him.
Who will help Regal handle things on NXT after Joe’s resignation? Or will the NXT GM finally gain full control over the brand after The Samoan Submission Machine’s early resignation?
