Emergency wrestlers from NXT-> WWE.

Odisho

PISTOL PETE
Say if 3-5 wrestlers from the main roster were badly hurt or went to visit Rob Van Dam. And WWE had to Immediately Bring guys from NXT/FCW to fill the cards for Raw and Smackdown. Who would you choose and think are capable enough to fill in for those who watched Spiderman and fell into ''Mary jane''.

Heres my list:

Big E Langston: This guy is big, very big. He would fit absolutely perfectly with Big Zeke in a team. All of WWE's tag teams right now are small sized(excluding Titus O'neil). Big E & Big Zeke could bring alot to the table, alot of power. I would put these guys on smackdown.

Xavier Woods: A former TNA X-division star, Woods can bring alot of excitment and charisma on smackdown. He can go in the ring and would make for a great midcard face.

Conor' Obrian & Roman Reigns: These guys have the best tag team gimmick you will see in the PG era. Their entrance would be a great watch on Raw and they would be a huge asset to the tag division.

Richie Steamboat: I would have a Video package for him, with his father talking about him in the video. I would have Richie defeat someone established like Cody Rhodes or someone lower like jack swagger to get him over quickly.

The reason why i havn't included guys like seth rollins, or dean ambrose or chris hero is because i believe they should come up to the roster in a special way. Like Ambrose being daniel bryan's cray doctor.

Who would you choose to bring up the card for an emergency situation?
 
I can tell from your list that you looked at the NXT website, rather than watching the shows. This is because:
  • Xavier Woods hasn't wrestled on NXT yet
  • Conor O'Brian teams with Kenneth Cameron as The Ascension
  • Roman Reigns hasn't wrestled on NXT yet
  • Your suggestions for all of them were extremely generic and didn't mention anything other than what you could tell by looking at their profile pictures. You made no mention of what each wrestler is good at, bad at or how they work.

Know your shit before you write about it.

As for who I'd call up to patch a hole, nobody. There are more than enough guys on the roster who could be pushed from Superstars to Smackdown already without introducing more guys to maintain. But to humour you, there's really only one active guy who could be called up to Raw next week and do well and that's Leo Kruger.

Kruger's damn good in the ring, able to have a good match with pretty much anyone and combines that with a lot of charisma. He's also got a gimmick that would allow him to get called up with no reason and get an acceptable level of heat within a short period (mainly because he's a foreigner, but cheap heat is still heat).

Of your guys, Langston would require a lot of investment and adds nothing to the roster that Ryback doesn't already contribute, Ascension are two good to waste on an unhyped, ad-hoc callup. Steamboat has the charisma of a stone and would thus flop if called up without strong investment. Xavier Woods is completely fucking terrible, I wouldn't call him up full stop.
 
There is enough talent on Superstars that could be moved up to Raw/Smackdown.
It takes time to develop these guys for the TV audience. These guys at best would get a chance to wrestle a couple of matches on Superstars if guys like Jinder Mahal, Yoshi Tatsu and low carders were moved up to one of the big brands due to a lack of depth
 
I think they'll just use the undercarders like Jinder Mahal, Alex Riley, etc. a bit more. They're not going to bring up a bunch of guys from developmental before they're ready.

They might bring up the Ascension, but only because Conor O'Brian has already worked on the old NXT and thus is used to working in the big arena environment.

Totally agree with your list, Ascension have an almost Undertaker like entrance! Very cool.

Richie steamboat would be great also and I would love to see him and Mcintyre feud, which I've seen on YT at a house show, and was quite funny to watch.

Obviously Rollins, Ambrose, Hero will be the main call ups and I'm sure they will be awesome :)
 
The ascension are imo better than all the tag teams in the WWE (and yes that includes the tag team champs R-Truth & Kofi Kingston), so I would definitely choose them.

Darick Bateman , Seth Rollins, Big E Langston and that weird Wyatt guy ( I cant remember his name lol) will also shine in the WWE if they are given the proper chance.
 
The Ascension could come up to the main roster right now and win the Tag Team Titles, they're that good. They're the best team in the WWE by a long shot, and should be given a chance.

Bray Wyatt can do VERY well, but I'm afraid he won't be able to be as extreme in the gimmick as he is now, and WWE will water down a lot of the stuff he says. Right now he has a very odd way of talking, and very unique things to say, but I fear WWE will make him fall more into the mold of most WWE wrestlers when he moves up.

I think Derrick Bateman could do well in a feud with Antonio Cesaro right now, the guy has charisma and is alright in the ring, and with his "Chicks and America" character could make for a good feud with "Very European" Antonio Cesaro.

Kassius Ohno is great, one of my favorites in the business as I loved his work as Chris Hero, and I think he can do big things in the WWE.

Well, I don't think it would matter if the Ascension were better than Kofi or Truth. In the event of an injury, Kofi & Truth would probably be broken up and re-pushed as singles guys anyway.
