WWE makes major changes to call-up process - Reports

WWE has reportedly made a change in how they call up stars to the main roster. The promotion is currently on the road to WWE Crown Jewel on October 11 at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia.

According to a new report from Fightful Select, the promotion has shifted its strategy from the Vince McMahon era of immediately pulling stars from NXT when they are called up to the main roster. The report noted that things have been handled differently over the past year or so, with call-ups being kept secret, and stars do not have to immediately leave NXT TV.

Fightful also spoke to a source at WWE's Performance Center who shared that the promotion believes it is important to have a veteran presence, and some have been brought in for a run in NXT without immediate plans of being called up to the main roster.
