A number of main roster stars have made a surprise appearance on various NXT shows in the past couple of weeks and it has left people with many questions.

At first, it was believed that these stars are just having fun in their time off after the busy travel schedule in the last couple of months, though now it appears that their appearances are part of a plan from the company.

According to a report from CageSideSeats, WWE is specifically sending stars who are not being used on the main roster currently in hopes to boost the ticket sales for these events.

This is an interesting news as it most likely means that the surprise appearances won’t end just here and we can expect some more main roster stars to show up at NXT shows in upcoming time.

For those who don’t know, it all started with ‘The Revival’ Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder making a surprise appearance during a house show where they answered a challenge issued by the Undisputed Era.

Since then, stars like Tyler Breeze and Tye Dillinger have returned to the developmental territory for appearances and even Booker T and Bruce Prichard showed up during an event earlier this month.

If these reports are true then it would be interesting to see which other main roster stars appear for the third brand of the company in future and if they end up working there frequently.
