I don’t think moving two belts is the definition of hot-shotting. Especially when talking about the CW and NA. They’ve also kept the NXT and Women’s right where they are.

Yes for TakeOvers but weekly tv rarely was like its been the past 4 weeks on USA Network. Way more often than not you'd get one big match or on rare occasions two big matches and the rest of the time spent moving along storylines or building new stuff. On some occasions you'd get a high profile match that would have been Takeover worthy in terms of status. First three weeks of NXT on USA was basically a roided up version of Network era NXT and last week being closer to normal but still leaning wrestling-heavy.
They literally put a WWE-like effort on the build for the Cruiser title change and rushed Strong's title win solely so they could lazily have the storyline of Undisputed Era holding all the gold be done on week 1.
