5 directions for The Velveteen Dream after NXT TakeOver: In Your House

#1 Call-up to the main roster

Could this be the scene on Monday Night RAW?

After yet another unsuccessful attempt at winning the NXT Championship, it would be likely for The Velveteen Dream to get called up to the WWE main roster. Some fans might argue on the fact that The Dream is yet to win NXT's most prestigious title. However, maybe it is indeed time for him to follow Matt Riddle's path and move up to either RAW or SmackDown.

Recent rumors have suggested that Riddle isn't the only NXT Superstar who was called up to the main roster, as other top names are likely to follow him. So could Dream be one of them and get promoted to the main brands? It could be a possibility, at this stage.

Triple H spoke to Sportskeeda's Gary Cassidy on the post-show conference call and one name that 'The Game' brought up was of The Velveteen Dream's, despite claiming that the WWE Universe could witness back-and-forth shifting between NXT, RAW, and SmackDown.

If The Dream is to be called up to the main roster, then Monday Night RAW could be his eventual destination, given Riddle joined the blue brand of SmackDown. With the likes of Seth Rollins, Kevin Owens, and even Aleister Black on RAW, there are plenty of workers for The Dream to work with on the main roster.
