The WWE main roster is stacked. There are way too many superstars on the roster right now, and it's difficult to keep a count right now. And this never-ending Superstar Shake-up has made things worse as people are getting shifted from one show to the other almost every other day.
Moreover, with so many superstars on the roster, the WWE creative team is definitely having a tough time. To have a slot for so many stars is a tough thing to do and even if they make SmackDown Live also a 3-hour show, it still does not make things easy for them.
Adding to all this, with limited time in the ring, a lot of the superstars are left frustrated. So many have asked for an early release for the same reason, and that does not make things look good for WWE.
However, the main reason why WWE should send a few stars back to NXT is that they are simply lost on the main roster. There are so many former NXT stars who are just jobbers today while they could be running the show in the yellow brand!
Here are 5 stars who should be sent back to NXT soon:
#1 – Tyler Breeze
Tyler Breeze is a wonderful in-ring performer but is being wasted on the main roster. Prince Pretty has a lot of potential but has never held a single championship, on NXT or in the main roster.
He has been involved in a few matches recently on NXT and should be kept there for the foreseeable future. Tyler has already set sights on the North American Championship held by Velveteen Dream and a feud between the two would be just brilliant!
Breeze can be the one to add a little more flair to NXT and attract more attention to the 3rd brand of WWE.
#4 – Apollo Crews
Apollo Crews' stay in NXT was short. From making his NXT debut in August 2015 to making his Main Roster debut in April 2016, Uhaa (his real name) had a very short stint in the developmental brand.
He had just one shot at the NXT title against then champion, Finn Balor. Crews did win the match via disqualification, but that was about it. He was involved in a feud with Baron Corbin, who had caused the disqualification in the title match, and then there was another small feud with Elias before he made his main roster debut.
While the other three mentioned in the previous paragraph are in a decent position right now, Crews is lost in the script. He does not have a feud going on with anyone nor does it look like WWE are planning to give him a push.
Sending him back to NXT can help in keeping him happy and also rebuild his confidence while he has clearly lost since Titus Worldwide was broken up.
#3 – No Way Jose
Only one way for Jose and that is back to NXT. No one really knows why No Way Jose was called up to the main roster and the one who did, probably has no clue who No Way Jose is!
A proper replacement for Adam Rose is what he became on the Main Roster and that is not what he should be. No Way Jose has just become a jobber and that too for mid-card wrestlers, not even the ones going for the gold.
It's been just over a year since he made his Main Roster debut (Raw after WrestleMania 34) and since then, he's had 2 feuds – vs Baron Corbin and Mojo Rawley – both of which he ended on the losing side.
A move back to NXT would be ideal for his career right now as he as a lot to learn before making it big in the WWE.
#2 – Shinsuke Nakamura
Let's be honest here, Shinsuke Nakamura's time in the main roster is over. He's done what he had to do and there is nothing left for him really. Unless he really wants to get his hands on the tag-titles, he should think about a move back to NXT.
The move will not only help him compete for the gold again but also help the others in NXT. Nakamura has so much experience that he can guide the ones in NXT and help them get ready for the main roster.
His WWE contract does expire in 2019 and there are no real indications that he will be handed a new deal. So, on his way out, the former NJPW star should help put someone over in NXT and leave as there is no one on the main roster that can be put over by him.
#1 – Asuka
Asuka is now a part of Paige's tag team along with Kairi Sane. But is that what she is all about?
The former NXT champion was one of the best in the company until they decided to let Charlotte end her streak at WrestleMania. The way WWE built her up, from her NXT days to the initial days on the main roster, that is the kind of Asuka everyone loves to see.
When she defeated Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Live Women's title at TLC, it looked like WWE were finally going to give her a push once again, but that was not the case. She defeated Becky at Royal Rumble and Mandy Rose at Fastlane but then lost the title to Charlotte Flair just before WrestleMania.
A move back to NXT will be ideal for her as she is being wasted with this tag-team storyline involving Kairi Sane.
