I'm glad she didn't get demoted to Smackdown with them.

Seems like, just like every other call-up, it's based on further plans for her in NXT. Plain and simple.
They gutted the women's roster and Shayna needed credible opponents. Nikki was built up to be about an A- level opponent, taking Asuka and Ember Moon to the brink multiple times.

Optimistically I'd love to say "Sanity was brought up without Nikki so that way they can get a boost to their act when Nikki joins them" but even together, it's safe to say if they're the Nation of Domination, Nikki Cross is the Rock.

Feels to me like many fan theories about "burials" can be chocked up to general WWE incompetence

You make some very valid points Snow Man...

SAni†Y were basically D.O.A on the main roster & have seemingly
disappeared from TV. Perhaps they should shift them back to NXT?

Its sad to think of the main roster being a demotion for the talent...
but history shows it is for most of them.

I guess I just think Nikki would make the main roster women's division
more interesting...mainly because she's actually unique & different from
everyone else.

I was screaming and yelling. Whooping and hollering like one of the four horsemen then she lost

Well...that shoots my theory in the head with a double
barrelled shotgun & leaves the corpse to be consumed
by pigs.

:emoji_thinking:

Maybe I should make that thread about Jinder becoming
the Universal Champion now?

Shame Nikki was defeated in her debut...

Also...Becky & Nikki should so totally team up in the future!

Also...can Nikki have Carmella's spot on the Survivor Series team?

Also...is it wrong that I want a cuddle for Nikki?

Nothing wrong with that. Is it bad I want Nikki Cross to beat me up and call me names?

Off topic I want to get beat up by Dakota Kai, Deonna Purrazzo and Kairi Sane. Back on topic I think Nikki could be a great women's champion amd it's a shame her debut was wasted on a loss. I was expecting at least a dq. Her feud with Asuka had me jumping out of my seat on a late night before work

Calm down...

Honestly...if how the rest of SAni†Y has been treated so far is
any indication I fear Nikki may just become a jobber for the other
ladies on SDL.

I was expecting at least a dq.
Well...honestly...they need to keep Becky looking as strong as
possible (especially because Ronda is most likely going over)
so Nikki being defeated was a forgone conclusion really.

It was just great to see her...with all her crazy cuteness and
energy. I actually think she'd be a great ally for Becky...but
that's just my opinion.

They were a tag team at a house show if I'm not mistaken and I will not calm down until one of them does lmao

Alexa Bliss is more of a physical threat then Nikki Cross.
Yeah...maybe in a debate...
Not in a wrestling ring.

Oh wait...what am I saying...Alexa hasn't wrestled (on TV) since Hell in a Cell...
almost if someone finally realized she's fucking awful at it & its best to just give
her a microphone...the only thing she can use properly.

Speaking of that...shouldn't Alexa Bliss be wrestling & giving back to the entire
division that has been putting her over for the last 2 year?

Like shouldn't Bayley, Sasha, Natalya & everyone else be getting their wins back?

Are we going to do that WWE? Or is Alexa just going to be continually booked as
a Champion even without the title or even wrestling?

Its amazing as soon as Alexa is FINALLY removed from the title picture...she is
suddenly injured & can't wrestle.

She's a Fucking Hack!

Good luck with your Charlotte thing.
Thanks...
