Just heard an interesting story... NXT talent was slated to be called up to SmackDown last week, as of showtime, was written into the main event segment w/ Reigns, Uso & KO. Said talent is on tonight’s big NXT card so curious to see if it was pushed a week or scrapped altogether.
As per WrestleVotes, there are plans in place to have an NXT Superstar move to SmackDown and join The Tribal Chief Roman Reigns in his ongoing WWE storyline. While the report doesn't mention the name of the Superstar, it has been revealed that this star was part of the WWE NXT New Year's Evil card.
There is a belief that former NXT North American Champion Damian Priest could be the Superstar in question. It will be interesting to see how the story between Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns and Jey Uso advances in the coming weeks and who this mystery Superstar could be.
Which WWE NXT Superstar do you think deserves to be moved to SmackDown? Let us know in the comments below!
