#3 Why Nikki Cross didn’t come up to the WWE main roster along with SAnitY

SAnitY in WWE NXT

Nikki Cross is currently portraying the Nikki A.S.H. character on WWE RAW, however, it could have all be very different if she had come up to the main roster as part of SAnitY. Cross stayed back on NXT when the faction came up to the main roster, only coming up to the main roster later.

Big Damo, fka Killian Dain, was recently interviewed by Sportskeeda Wrestling. During the interview, he revealed why his real-life wife Nikki Cross didn’t come up to the main roster along with SAnitY. Damo explained:

"I think the most important part is, as we were going up to the main roster, you're starting from scratch almost. And generally, villains would go up, and they would get their ass beat by the babyfaces. The problem is, what does Nikki do when that happens because you can't have man-on-women violence. That, for me, is completely understandable."

"I think that was one of the takeaways she had herself, like on NXT, yes, you know she could attack Adam Cole and kind of disappear off-screen because we can make that work, but it's very difficult to make that happen on a live television show, especially in those big arenas that we were doing for SmackDown and stuff like that," said Big Damo.

The Nikki A.S.H. character is a promising new start for Cross on the WWE main roster. It will be interesting to see what the company has planned for her heading into SummerSlam next month.
