7 mistakes WWE made on Raw this week(25 February 2019)

#3 NXT stars lost in the shuffle

Yeah, their moves look cool, but who are they again? That is a question casual fans are asking.

For a while now, the NXT call-ups have not been able to make a mark when they debut on the main roster. From Samoa Joe to Sami Zayn, NXT's greatest heels and babyfaces have all fallen on Raw and Smackdown Live over the years, so what is different when it comes to the booking of the four megastars WWE called up last week?

Ricochet, Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, and Tommaso Ciampa are all cornerstones in NXT right now, but ever since they were called up to Raw, it was clear that WWE had no plans for them. And that is a fact, as rumors have been circulating that these four NXT call ups were last-minute decisions by WWE.

It continued this week as well, as Ricochet and Black took on The Revival. Sure the match was fun, and the moves looked cool, but what about character introduction? Not many casual fans know who these stars are, and WWE skipping that step just to get them on the show is a mistake.

One way for these stars to succeed on Raw and Smackdown Live is for them to connect with the audience, and WWE has not afforded them that chance as yet. This is a proven method for success, as it worked for The Shield and Kevin Owens among many others.
