Went to NXT to challenge for the NXT Championship. Could this be done in a way to make it not look like a step down for the person challenging? I could see Cesaro doing this.

The only ways it wouldn't be a step down for the person challenging is one of the following options: 1- They'd have to be a main eventer. 2- Specifically, they'd have to be a main eventer who has: Held the WWE and Universal Titles before but did not hold the NXT Title, so you can sell it as "I want to be the first Triple Crown World Champion." With those things...yeah, Roman Reigns would probably have to be the person to do it, since he is literally the only human on earth who was WWE Champion, will likely be Universal Champ tonight, and was on NXT. |

I can see it working in a couple of ways:
1) an asshole heel champion that starts saying that he can beat anyone in the WWE/NXT and starts targeting a main roster guy that has taken on an NXT guy as something of a protege and antagonizing the main roster guy by brutalizing the NXT guy and generally making everyone’s life hell. Eventually the WWE guy accepts but says that he doesn’t even want the title he just wants to shut up the champion. Leading to a grudge match. Daniel Bryan would be perfect for this.
2) just send the Miz down to promo carry a feud with the champ. Miz is a guy that could get the crowd hot for it and it wouldn’t really hurt him to lose a hard fought match.

It used to happen all the time and all was fine.
Rollins going back as the the first champion could work well, the architect not liking what the title he built has become.
Or just Cena, no real reason, just get him in a hostile environment.

They used to do it, though pretty much exclusively with heels. Offhand Brodus, Titus, and Kidd all tried to get it.

It'd be easy with anyone, if you had a month or two to establish them first.
