Why do Raw and NXT have seperate sections?

Just wondering why Raw and NXT have their own sections while Smackdown is grouped in with the WWE Network?

Raw is a part of WWE's Weekly TV and NXT is exclusive to the network so they should all be grouped together or not at all no?

Or have Raw and Smackdown as Weekly TV and then NXT gets merged into the Network section.

Apologies if this has been answered before but seems a little strange that it would be set up this way.

Thanks.

RAW - The main and A show, thus it has its own section.

SmackDown - Questionable if its even considered a B show at this point given its current state of nature and affairs.

NXT - Is a holy existence where all kinds of flowers bloom, all kinds of peach-like scents dance around with one another and a exclusive expanding dimension as the magic and chemistry being co-created within are barely comparable to the mentioned shows above.

With that said, the current forum set-up for these shows are reflections of how the current products are being presented to us fans in modern times. RAW is still RAW, SD is more of a filler programming nowadays and NXT is... well full of awesomeness. Thus all sections are good and accurately placed as they are.

Raw has its own section because it's the main show and most if not all people that watch WWE regularly watch it. Smackdown, along with Main Event, are watched probably by half regularly, so to throw them in with the others is fine.

NXT is developmental and thus, a much different kind of discussion than Raw, Smackdown, Main Event or any other Network show. It's not just about what happens each week that we see televised, it's also about new signs, rumours of signs, etc. For example, what happens at house shows on Raw/Smackdown isn't important. On NXT, it is, so we cherish the reports by people like Gravenbabies for bringing us regular house show information.

Basically, the scape is different for NXT and Smackdown/Main Event aren't popular enough for their separate sections like Raw.
