News: 4 Superstars Debut on Raw

-
Last night, the most star-studded call-up in WWE history took place as Ricochet, Johnny Gargano, Tomasso Ciampa, and Aleister Black all made there debut on Monday Night Raw.  The former independent stalwarts are four of the most decorated superstars in NXT history, with Ricochet being a 1 time North American Champion, Gargano the current North American Champion and a former Tag Team Champion, Ciampa a Tag Team and current NXT World Champion, and Black also being a NXT World Champion.  Although not expected to be called up until the post-Wrestlemania Raw, there is no doubt that, looking at their accomplishments and the fact that their matches average a 4.5 star rating, that they more than deserve their place on the main roster.

Their Raw debuts added to their past success with all men picking up a well deserved victory.  Ricochet was first to make his mark as he teamed with new Intercontinental Champion Finn Balor to see off Bobby Lashely and Leo Rush.  NXT World and North American Champions Ciampa and Gargano defeated Raw Tag Team Champions The Revival in a great encounter.  Aliester Black got a win over Elias in what was a good match against an opponent that will quickly become of lower standing than the call-up.

Which of these Raw debuts was the greatest, and what is nxt (pronounced next) for these four superstars?  Please comment and come back soon for more wrestling related news.

Randy Orton has been with the WWE for 17 years and since his in-ring debut in April 2002 and has gone on to have 17 various title reigns across both the Raw and Smackdown brands as well as being a 2 time Royal Rumble winner and 1 time Money in the Bank winner.  Orton is one of the greatest wrestlers in the history of the company, and currently holds the position of the veteran heel, a role which would surely become void if he was to leave for AEW.  The motives for 'The Apex Predator' being in talks with AEW is not know, but is presumably linked with a bigger pay check and a less intense work schedule.  What we do know is that if Orton did jump ship a large portion of
