NXT has come a long way over the last few years, and it’s become much more than just WWE’s developmental brand.
NXT is now a legitimate third brand with its own two hour show on USA Network, and on Sunday Rhea Ripley defended the NXT Women’s Championship against Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania 36.
Charlotte Flair defeated Ripley to win the belt, and she told Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT that she plans to defend the title across all three brands.
I just spoke to @MsCharlotteWWE.
The new NXT Women's Champion says she plans to defend the title across all three brands and is excited at the prospect of facing the talented women in NXT.
Also says she's 'only scratched the surface' with @RheaRipley_WWE.

Flair also did an interview with TV Insider and once again emphasized that she wants to defend the belt across all three brands.
“I guess that is up for debate. Do I need to be drafted to NXT? [Laughs] How is this going to work? I hope I get to work at all three brands. “
