WWE Survivor Series 2019: 33 Things You Probably Missed

32. The Hype For NXT

Raw SmackDown NXT
WWE Network

NXT received most of the favourable hype at the top of the show, and (if you were watching closely) it became obvious that the third brand would win the night.

When Triple H said, "Raw vs. SmackDown vs. NXT", fans were heard shouting the yellow and black show's name for him. That pushed it to the forefront of the presentation, and made it stand out from brands red and blue. Also, it was kinda' strange to see Brock Lesnar and The OC chosen for Raw when they weren't in any elimination matches, and Nikki Cross battling Sasha Banks on SmackDown when they were teammates.
