There was a time back when Ohio Valley Wrestling used to be WWE's developmental territory, where Superstars of tomorrow used to hone their in-ring and promo skills. Later, FCW was used by WWE as a developmental show. Around a decade ago, NXT replaced FCW as WWE's developmental territory and gave us some of today's biggest WWE Superstars over the next few years.
Several of today's WWE Superstars have worked in NXT at some point in time, before making it to RAW or SmackDown. There's a rare bunch of Superstars who have made a name for themselves on all the three brands. In the following list, we will take a look at these Superstars' Championship accomplishments on the three brands, and focus on five of them who have won title belts on RAW, SmackDown, and NXT.
#5 Bayley
Right after WrestleMania 31, three of the four Horsewomen made their way to the main roster, while Bayley remained in NXT. It would be another year before she followed her friends out of NXT. Bayley is one of the most decorated Champions in all of WWE today. She defeated Sasha Banks to win her only NXT Women's title, followed by which she celebrated the victory with Becky Lynch, Banks, and Charlotte Flair.
Bayley has also won the RAW Women's title on one occasion. Back in 2019, Bayley and Sasha Banks became the first-ever WWE Women's Tag Team Champions at Elimination Chamber. Bayley's greatest success has come on SmackDown, where she has won the Blue brand's Women's title on two occasions. Bayley recently set a record by keeping the SmackDown Women's title on her shoulder for 500 days. It's safe to say that her heel turn last year was one of the best decisions WWE took in recent memory, as it ended up revitalizing her waning career.
#4 Big E
Even before making it big with The New Day, Big E was a fairly popular Superstar on the WWE roster. He was given a major singles push back in his NXT days, where he won the brand's top title by defeating Seth Rollins. Big E was NXT Champion for a total of 153 days, before he lost the belt to Bo Dallas. Upon leaving NXT, Big E became a mainstay in WWE as a mid-card Superstar. Big E has won the Intercontinental title on one occasion as well.
On RAW, Big E became a Tag Team Champion alongside Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods, on two occasions. On the SmackDown brand, Big E won the Tag Team titles a record six times, alongside his New Day brethren as well.
Big E is also dubbed by many as one of the funniest Superstars in all of WWE. His comedic timing is incredible, and it's hard to imagine someone else in his place in The New Day. Big E hasn't won a top title on RAW/SmackDown since he left NXT, but he certainly deserves a reign in the future.
#3 Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens is currently signed to the RAW brand. After making his name on the independent scene, Owens made his way to WWE NXT in 2014. In NXT, Owens turned heel on his longtime friend Sami Zayn, and the duo had a heated feud over the NXT title. Owens eventually defeated Zayn to win his only NXT title. KO lost the NXT title to Finn Balor at The Beast In The East event in Tokyo, after holding the belt for 143 days.
Around a year after he made his way to the main roster, Kevin Owens won the Universal title on an episode of WWE RAW. The victory came in the wake of Triple H's betrayal of Seth Rollins. Owens held on to the belt for months on end, before losing it to Goldberg on the road to WrestleMania 33. In addition to the above accomplishments, Owens is also a two-time WWE Intercontinental Champion. He has also won the United States title on three occasions, thus entering the elite list of Superstars who have won titles on all three top WWE brands.
#2 Charlotte Flair
Charlotte Flair grew up in the wrestling business and was always destined for greatness. Flair made her WWE debut in 2012, and has been with the company ever since. She won the NXT Women's title on one occasion before moving to the main roster in 2015. Flair would win the belt again five years later, by defeating Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 36. She is on her to way breaking Ric Flair's record of 16 World title reigns, and currently has 12 title reigns in her bag.
Flair has won the WWE Divas title on one occasion. She has been dominating both RAW and SmackDown over the past five years. She won the RAW Women's titles four times. On the Blue brand, she won the SmackDown Women's title belt on five occasions. It's clear as day that WWE is gunning for Charlotte to break her father's record of 16 World title reigns, and it won't be a surprise if she ends up doing the same in the near future.
#1 Drew McIntyre
Drew McIntyre has seen his fair share of ups and downs in WWE. Once an enhancement talent who used to lose matches left, right and centre, McIntyre is currently the face of WWE and is the company's top Champion. McIntyre won the Intercontinental title during his first run in WWE, way back in 2009. He was a part of the SmackDown brand at the time. McIntyre parted ways with WWE in 2014 and came back three years later.
He defeated Robert Roode to win his only NXT title in 2017. McIntyre made his RAW debut in 2018 and aligned with Dolph Ziggler. The duo won the RAW Tag Team titles on one occasion, before parting ways soon after.
McIntyre's time finally came when he won the 2020 Royal Rumble match. He went on to win his first WWE Championship by defeating Brock Lesnar in the main event of WrestleMania 36. It's nothing short of impressive how far Drew McIntyre has come in a matter of years. Judging by his current reign, it won't be a surprise to see him dominating the WWE roster for years to come.
