Bengaluru, November 24: We witnessed the course of the women's division see change following Survivor Series PPV on both WWE Monday Night Raw and Smackdown Live.

A number of NXT stars from the female roster made their debut on the past week's main brands. It was a shocking incident for the fans, as there was no hints on this before.

A returning Paige was the leader of a newly created faction on Raw, she came back with two NXT ladies, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville to attack the big names of then Raw women's division and interfered in the championship picture as well. With the number games in their favor, this group is likely to dominate the flagship show, for now onwards.

The same consequences were met on Smackdown as well when NXT's Ruby Riot led the faction which included two other NXT stars, Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan. They ambushed names like Charlotte, Natalya, Becky Lynch and Naomi to make a bold statement.

Fans were quite overwhelmed with this sudden impact made in the women's division. There was also a portion of the WWE Universe who were not impressed with the repeated actions by both team Red and Blue. Apparently, there's a big reason behind these NXT call-ups to the main roster.



According to the reports of cagesideseats.com, Vince McMahon is the one to pull the trigger on the NXT names. He felt that the women's division matchups were set to get stale with limited names available on the roster. Hence, he thought including more names will come in handy.

It is quite true if we consider the past couple of months. However, some of the fans do believe that there were names like Peyton Royce and Billie Kay from NXT who were more than ready to enter the big league on the main roster.



The Facebook page of The 434 suggested that the creative team wanted to insert only those names from NXT who were not being used in protagonist's role. They were involved in a faction to prove their relevance, going forward.

The call-ups from NXT also added to the fact that WWE might be planning something big for the women's division. A tag team division from the female roster and a Royal Rumble match for the women are in-store for the near future. With more names available now on Raw and Smackdown, the officials might announce them soon.
