Confirmed: Top NXT Superstars Set to Debut on This Week’s Monday Night Raw

the ascensionAccording to WWE.com, stand-out NXT tag team The Ascension will be making their debut on Monday Night Raw tomorrow night on the final episode of the year. 

This week on Raw, The Ascension will rise. The former NXT Tag Team Champions are poised to hit the ground running as they make their WWE debut, and we’re not sure if their first Raw opponents should be excited or terrified about what lies ahead. No matter what happens when these post-apocalyptic warriors stride down the entrance ramp, the entire roster — especially the tag team division — will be glued to the backstage monitors.

The former NXT Tag Team Champions appeared on an episode of WWE Main Event several months ago, promoting one of the NXT Takeover two hour live specials. They have been rumored for a call-up for months, and have been appearing in vignettes for the last few weeks, hyping their arrival. 

No word yet on who The Ascension will face in their first Raw match, but both The Usos and Gold/Stardust are scheduled for a separate live event in a different city, and will not be on the show.
