WWE Survivor Series 2019: 5 Reasons why NXT won the brand war 

#4. The WWE Universe was hot on NXT after War Games

The women of NXT managed to come out on top in the 15 woman elimination match

Any WWE fan that tuned into last night's Takeover: War Games show would know that NXT brought the fight to Chicago and definitely set the bar ahead of tonight's show. Not only were NXT the winners of the brand war tonight at Survivor Series, but Adam Cole and Pete Dunne stole the show when they collided for the NXT Championship.

There were many stars who competed at Takeover: Games that pulled double duty since they competed at War Games and Survivor Series including Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai, Pete Dunne, Adam Cole, Tommaso Ciampa, Matt Riddle, Keith Lee, Dominik Dijakovic and Shayna Baszler.

The crowd that were in Chicago for Survivor Series had also been in attendance for last night's War Games show. Since it was a show that defied logic on a number of occasions, it makes sense that WWE would want to play to that crowd and continue to put over the NXT stars because they were able to garner a reaction from the same set of fans last night.
