WWE RAW Preview: February 25th 2019

#2. Will the NXT Superstars rise to the occasion again?

Last week began with a major surprise, as WWE revealed prior to RAW that four top NXT Superstars were backstage - NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa, now-former NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano, Aleister Black, and Ricochet, who are former NXT and North American Champions respectively.

It came as a surprise that four of the six top male stars in NXT debuted on the same night. After all, Triple H has been against the NXT champions appearing on the main roster. Also, how Gargano and Ciampa are suddenly able to team together after all their animosity is a mystery.

Look who just shut down all of Tony Khan's critics! More HERE.

Either way, they all had extremely successful starts on RAW, with Ciampa and Gargano renewing their classic rivalry against RAW Tag Team Champions the Revival. Aleister Black beat Elias while Ricochet teamed with Finn Balor to beat Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush.

With all of them replicating their success on SmackDown against different opponents, will their momentum continue heading into RAW this week?

How will Gargano's North American title loss to The Velveteen Dream affect him?
