20 Reasons Why WWE Superstar Shake-Up 2019 Was An Absolute Mess

6. No Home For Nikki

Nobody wants to play with Nikki Cross, it seems.

While it looked like WWE would find permanent spots for all of their early-2019 call-ups in this year's Shake-Up, Cross remains homeless. Neither Raw nor SmackDown took her on-board. Even Heavy Machinery were sent to the blue brand via website update after the show had gone off the air, but the former Sanity member is still lost in the free agency sea.

This only makes sense if she's to go full-time with NXT UK and never appear on the main roster over the coming year of programming, but it's still worth burying. Did they just forget about her?
