With Zayn and Owens showing up and debuting over the past few weeks and NXT being mentioned a lot more each week on commentary, would you want to see the return of the Bragging Rights PPV with NXT vs WWE or would you want to see a 5 on 5 match at Survivor Series instead?
I'd be up for a Bragging Rights ppv, the idea of NXT vs WWE really interests me at this point, if not a proper ppv, maybe a network exclusive PPV like Elimination Chamber, sure WWE would love the amount of subscribers that would bring in

I'm still not entirely sold on a WWE vs. NXT program. We get that the NXT roster is great, but a match between the two rosters seems like a lose-lose situation to me. Either the developmental roster looks stronger than the main roster, or they're portrayed as being a lesser entity.

I would like to see Bragging Rights return along with the brand split, but I would not like to see NXT vs WWE.

No to all of this.
Bragging Rights = a sh*tty version of Survivor Series where NOTHING MATTERED AT ALL.
Also WWE vs NXT is a terrible idea. Aside from Vince holding it over Triple H's head, what is to be gained from WWE beating the NXT roster? Conversely, why would WWE want their roster to lose to the farm system?
Instead of bringing back/creating themed special events, that energy would be better spent on booking their shows better.

I dont see the point of having this NXT face of with WWE.
BTW all i could really remember is the badass poster from the last Bragging Rights(if i could remember correctly).

Unless the Brand Extension returns, then no. Like others have said, NXT coming out on top makes the main roster look like a joke, and having the WWE come out on top just feels like Vince stroking his ego.
However, Bragging Rights as a concept was always cool. The WWE really sold the whole brand supremacy thing as legitimate, even when most wrestlers did not care about that before or after the event.

No thanks. I have a gut feeling they'd find a way to make NXT much weaker than it is.

It wouldn't feel right as the roster aren't separate and I feel nxt shouldn't be involved in ppvs yet. You get the same match at survivor series and the PPVs last year were great and solid and they should stay that way. Now elimination chamber is back fastlane is great, win win however ec is better during the wrestlemania build up. I wouldn't mind a network exclusive bragging rights.

You guys are so full of sh*t. The second NXT talents showed up on Raw to square off against a WWE assembled team, the internet would collectively lose their sh*t. That would be incredible and if WWE is serious about NXT being a traveling "3rd" brand next year, a feud leading to Survivor Series is the perfect way to launch it. I think it's an incredible idea. WWE would internally be creating the Invasion all over again. Sure, we saw a similar idea with Nexus but NXT isn't Nexus and Kevin Owens just beat John Cena clean in the middle of the ring at Elimination Chamber. NXT edging out a fight over the main roster would be totally realistic. Also, NXT hasn't been developmental for about a year now. It's a brand, that most of us pay $10 a month solely to watch.
Bragging Rights doesn't need to return for any of that to happen though. So no real need their imo.

Bragging Rights was an absolute joke and I was amazed as many people bought into as they did! For 48 weeks of the year the wrestlers could not give a crap about what brand they were on, but for four weeks of the year we are expected to buy that all of a sudden they do? I hated the whole concept of Bragging Rights with a passion!

No. It always seemed like a pointless show to me. Why didn't they just do the match at Survivor Series like they did in '05? It just never made sense to me.

The Bragging Rights PPV IMO was a cool concept, but they booked the PPV way too close to Survivor Series. That PPV would have been great as a June PPV at the time, maybe even an April/May post draft PPV. Anyways, I think NXT and WWE should not have too much interaction with each other

I liked the Bragging Rights concept when there was RAW vs SD. Without a brand split, it's not the same. And a WWE vs NXT would not be the way to replicate that.
