9. NXT Stars Not Being Used Better On Main Roster?
From @SuperflyBilly: When brought up from NXT why do WWE then go and squash them? Looking at people like Neville, Sasha Banks and Kevin Owens.
I don't think any of the people you mentioned are being squashed. They just aren't pushed that well (aside from Owens), who is in the final four of the WWE Title tournament as well as the current Intercontinental Champion. Owens beat Cena in his first match, which is unprecedented (he lost the two follow-ups but they were great matches and actually helped Owens). You could make a case for guys like Adam Rose, Bo Dallas and The Ascension getting squashed on the main roster. Poor Emma had to go back to NXT after getting out of there, but it's turning out to be better for her career. You could say they haven't done well on the main roster, which must be disappointing for them. The booking is the problem more than anything. They call people up, then don't really do much with them after that first month or two on the main roster and then they just fall into the midcard sea of talent that aren't going anywhere. It's been a problem for a while.
