Do you think that NXT needs to be a totally separate brand from WWE? Keep NXT superstars off Raw and Smackdown and make them exclusive to NXT shows etc!

Ooooh the OP has changed now..
Still, it kind of is. They are aired separately, feature exclusive NXT talent, have exclusively contracted performers and over the last year they've successfully shed the "development" tag line. They're solo touring and they've just sold out Wembley Arena.
Id say you got your wish already, bro! What further expansion would you like to see?

Sasha Banks was on Raw as the NXT womens champion for over a month! Surely that separates the brands more so? If she dropped the belt due to appearing on Raw, that would directly demonstrate that NXT is a feeder show for the main show. Nobody beat her in NXT at the time, so of course she's gunna be champion. It's not like her feuds spilled over, she feuded with separate divas on 2 different shows. I'm not arguing buddy, I'm all for NXT to completely remove itself from WWE! If only haha |

For the most part it already is. But...
I wouldn't be heartbroken if they stopped having NXT talent getting call up to the main roster. And maybe sent a hand-full of WWE talent back to NXT permanently. End SD and just have RAW & NXT as your two big shows.

Running NXT as a separate thing could be a really good idea. Keep it aimed at the indie crowd, and still use it as a developmental system for their upcoming stars. Meaning that not everyone on NXT needs to be called up, just call up the elite.

I THOUGHT IT ALREADY KIND OF WAS. "DEVELOPMENTAL" JUST SEEMS TO BE A NAME. NXT HAS GROWN INTO IT'S OWN COMPANY NOW, ESPECIALLY SINCE THEY'RE DOING TOURS OF OTHER COUNTRIES.

But it also might be a good way to get Vince to slow down. Both in life and in story-line writing. More effort on RAW means better TV. Plus we'd get a lot less rematches each week. I'd love for NXT to get guys like Owens, Cesaro, Dallas, Neville, and PCB back. Then give NXT a second hour. Keep Vince away. |

I definitely think it should be more separated. There shouldn't be any NXT talent wrestling on RAW. They should have to graduate to the main roster. That way NXT 100% has it's own thing going while RAW can continue to suck in it's own way...

It is a separate brand.
I do agree, though, guys and gals shouldn't be working both shows at once. In other words, I'm in favor of cut and dry call-ups. When you get called up to the roster, you're there.
The problem with that, though, is that the guy/girl getting called up is usually the current champion, so it makes it obvious when they're about to lose the title. Given that, I'm okay with people going back down briefly to drop the title, like Kevin Owens.

Keep Vince away. Yeah that could work. If NXT was to ever become its own brand, id like to see it become the workhorse brand. Put the rybacks and reigns on raw, put the Owens cesaros and nevilles on NXT |

It's fine how it is. Don't change it one way or another.

No. It's a development show, they need to develop them there and call them up when ready. Not getting called up means a lot less money and I'm sure they don't want that.

NXT IS a different brand...
To somewhat change the subject (the OP is about to make my eyes bleed), I think NXT should replace SmackDown. WWE is using SD as a 2 hour Raw recap, and no one is watching it.
NXT talent receive little to no reaction when they debut. Imagine how over they would be if they were featured on cable, 2 hours every week...
