Prior to taking over the creative duties for the WWE main roster shows, Triple H was responsible for booking NXT. On the most recent NXT Premium Live Event, current SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair made a return after nearly three years.

Charlotte Flair was one of the Four Horsewomen of the women's wrestling revolution alongside Sasha Banks, Bayley, and Becky Lynch. Before achieving grand success on the main roster, these four women redefined women's wrestling in the Black and Gold brand under Triple H's tutelage.

With the Game getting promoted to the main roster responsibilities, Shawn Michaels is in charge of NXT. The Heart Break Kid presented the NXT Vengeance Day Premium Live Event, and the show kicked off with a promo involving Charlotte Flair.

The Queen was in the WWE Performance Center. She put over the NXT roster before previewing the matches. The six-time RAW Women's Champion put over the likes of Bron Breakker, Grayson Waller, Roxanne Perez, Toxic Attraction, and Pretty Deadly among others.

The video package was met with a mixed response from fans. Many enjoyed the fact that one of the biggest NXT legends made a reappearance on a big show.

There were others who did not quite enjoy the video package.
