The heart of the matter
There has been a debate over whether or not NXT is better than WWE for a number of years now and it appears that this question could be much closer to being answered since Joe Peisich revealed on the latest installment of Barnburner’s Fired Up podcast that WWE could be planning another invasion storyline in the future.
“WrestleMania is you know the biggest show of the year but there’s talk around being put in place, it may happen in a year, 2 years, whatever for really an NXT Takeover and sort of an invasion between NXT and WWE," he said via Ringsidenews.
There is a lot of talent down in NXT right now that would enjoy taking the fight to the main roster including Adam Cole, Ricochet, Velveteen Dream, EC3 and even NXT Champion Tommaso Ciampa, which means that this really could be a huge idea for WWE's creative team.
What's next?
This isn't something that is going to happen right away, but by the sounds of it, this is something that WWE is now planning and could become a reality as early as next year's WrestleMania season.
