WWE Stomping Grounds 2019: 5 interesting stats and facts you need to know

#4 NXT is represented in all matches except one

There are many former NXT stars currently on the main roster

NXT has been a force to be reckoned with ever since it was established as a developmental division back in 2012. The company has been creating its own stars for more than seven years and now it's starting to show on the main roster since around 80% of the current crop of talent either came through NXT or have since been part of the show.

This weekend almost every match has NXT representation with the likes of Seth Rollins, Baron Corbin, Roman Reigns, Bayley, Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch, Lacey Evans, Ricochet, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Big E, Xavier Woods, Erick Rowan, and Heavy Machinery all coming through the developmental set up. The three stars competing in the Cruiserweight Championship match this weekend have all since returned to compete on NXT, which means that the only match that isn't made up of NXT alum is Kofi Kingston's clash against Dolph Ziggler inside a steel cage.
