Who's nXt?

[ShinChan]

So this year after Wrestlemania 31; we have seen multiple nXt stars make their debut.... like Charlotte; Sasha Banks; Becky Lynch; Kevin Owens; Tyler Breeze; etc....
Now the question is Who would you want to debut next from nXt?
My choice-
Finn Balor- The current nXt Champion.... He is good in his in-ring work..... Entrance is awesome and Signature Body Paint is too unique and awesome..... The whole Demon persona is good too.... He can be the big face that WWE needs..... and i personally like him a lot (as you can guess from my name)

So i would want him to debut against John Cena at TLC or the next ppv after this in an US Open Challenge after John Cena retains it..... And beat him for the title in a hard fought match.... I know i booked too ambitiously.....

Honourable Mention- Bayley..... We all would want her as soon as possible......But i want her to come later by letting her have a good reign and then losing to either Asuka or Nia Jax!
Thoughts?

I reckon Sami Zayn ought to go straight to the main-roster so when he is healthy; he should get the call up. He definitely has the talent and will fit in nicely to the current mid-card. The ceiling might be the level of someone like Neville or Cesaro but Sami has proven mic-skills. He could be an upper-mid card babyface who is just a bit of luck away from being a top star. I reckon he may have a similar career to Daniel Bryan.

Bayley is a no-brainer but the NXT women need a marque name. Also, the Divas Revolution doesn't need any-one else. Once they find the right formula; Bayley can be introduced. Her time will come but I think that should be after Wrestlemania. Balor is ready for a call-up too but, again, the night after Mania is the right spot.

I'm undecided about Samoa Joe. I definitely want to see him on the main-roster but when he gets the call up it needs to be for something substantial. Just like Owens. Samoa Joe getting a call-up and being lost in the shuffle does no-one any favours; especially not him. Indeed, he would be better off helping the greener talent in NXT than being just another body on the main roster.

As soon as, Sami is healthy he should be the next call-up. Balor, Bayley as well as Enzo and Big Cass would be logical for the night after Mania. Corbin as well as Jordan and Gable in the months thereafter with the latter possibly being in a stable. For Joe, it really depends on the circumstance.

There is a lot of talent in NXT. 3 or 4 tag-teams could get the call-up tomorrow and fit in instantly. I suppose it's about picking the right spot to make a big impact. Kevin Owens is the template. The Ascension (a few months before Mania) is the absolute opposite.

 

[MC_Live]

Bailey is my vote for next. But I think it should be a while before we see anyone. I agree with MCMG. Zayn should go straight to the main roster upon his return, and Bálor and Bayley should debut the night after Mania. But that's what I think should happen. If I were to thing what will happen, that little voice in my head says Bayley is most likely to be first once the Diva's division resets a little bit. On a side note, I think Enzo and Big Cass should win the NXT Tag Titles before they get called up.

 

[Jack-Hammer]

I think it'll be Finn Balor who'll be called up next. I have a feeling, though I could easily be wrong, that he'll drop the NXT Championship at the TakeOver event in London in mid December, stick around for a bit to possibly have his return match for the title and make his appearance in WWE at the Royal Rumble.

If he drops the NXT Championship at TakeOver: London, I think he'll be on the main roster within a few months. However, it's also possible WWE might go the route of having him come up to the main roster as NXT Champion like we saw with Kevin Owens. At any rate, he's my pick for the next NXT call up.

 

[Cena Is A Punk Rocker]

As much as I would love for Joe to be the one to come up next, I just get the feeling that he's in the same boat as Rhyno in that veteran enhancement talent/coach role.
On topic, I feel that Zayn is next up. Move him straight into the IC title picture. Natural rival with KO. Easy money.

 

[laodaron]

Zayn and Balor, while nice, don't fit on the main roster. Bringing them up to feud with Owens is fine and all, but I think they're better in NXT right now. My vote is for Apollo Crews. That's the babyface that the WWE needs on top right now. If you want to keep Cena justifiably fighting in the US and IC divisions, you need to bring a super powerhouse babyface to the main roster.

 

[showtyme27]

I think there are several talents ready for the "Big Show" in NXT but as stated above it has to be the right situation, the right time and most importantly they have to have a clear cut PLAN, GOAL, PURPOSE and/or significant STORYLINE BEFORE the debut of ANY talent to maximize the chances of their character resonating with the average fans.

With that being said I think that Chad "Say My Name" Gable and Jason "JJ" Jordan are the best of the best in NXT. The way they both move in the ring, the matches they string together and their overall chemistry makes Them not only The hottest prospects in NXT but one of the best pure Tag Teams I have seen in years. They remind Me of one of the greatest makeshift Tag Teams ever IMO "Mr." Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas collectively known as "The World's Greatest Tag Team" and while I believe both have breakout single competitor potential I believe they should nit rush to package Them separately just yet. They should allow Them to stay together for a few years dominate the Tag Division SLOWLY transition singles competition where I believe both can and will succeed. Expectually Jason Jordan who I consider to be almost a definite lock for future Main Event Stardom, their is something just special about that guy and I truly get excited thinking about his future in the business.

Of course Samoa Joe and Sami Zayn are ready for the call. They have both proven they can have suburb matches with anyone on the roster and would most definitely improve the quality of and make the Mid-Card Division more competitive then it has been in years.

And last but not least, Bayley, She has already proven She is better then many of the Women already on the main roster but I am afraid She is a victim of circumstance, unfortunately the NXT Women's Division can not take losing another Star. They are in the middle of ejecting a new influx of talent and elevating current talents of the future and Bayley has to be the anchor to solidify and advance their abilities to the next level. I believe it will be quite awhile before We get a chance to see Bayley on the main roster, but in the long run I think that could work out in Her favor as She won't get lost in the shuffle the main rosters Diva's Division is going through much like Sasha Banks and expectually Becky Lynch seemingly have.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

I'm going with Samoa Joe. The main roster needs a big face now that Cena is taking Brock Lesnar type breaks. I'm pretty surprised that he hasn't jumped already ....if they really are using him as veteran enhancement for the rookies than fine. It just seems odd though. A giant unproven Braun Stroman skips NXT and goes right to the main roster but a proven star like Joe is still there.

I'd love to see some Joe vs Cena, Joe vs Cesaro , Kevin Owens , ect ect.. there's good matches there for Joe.


Joe's gonna kill you.

 

[ShinChan]

Some said Sami Zayn should be the next nXt call-up..... But i think he already debuted on main roster in a losing effort to John Cena in US Title Open Challenge....... Am i Wrong?
Thats why i didnot give his option in the poll as i thought he has already debuted....

I watched that RAW and didn't think it was a real debut though. It came from the Bell Centre in Montreal, and considering Zayn is from Quebec thought they were playing to the crowd. Plus that was the match he was injured in, and why he's been out for so long.

Really thought he was going back to NXT if he hadn't have gotten hurt. I'm sure he would have been called up by now though, so he might just debut on the main roster when he does come back.

 

[Heartbreak_Kid_707]

Personally I think NXT needs to cool their bones a lil...wwe needs to let nxt flourish in all the buzz they creat. Make both ultra competitive!!

But I would pick Baron Corbin!!!

 

[Sexcellence of Sexecution]

We don't need any more solo stars filling up the seemingly endless midcard, but we do need some more legit tag teams. The New Day is really one of the best heel teams to come along in over a decade, that's not even an exaggeration, but great heels also need great babyfaces to work with. Right now, they have that with the Dudley Boys, who are fucking over like crazy. But eventually that feud will end. Enzo & Big Cass can match up with the New Day not just in the ring, but more importantly on the mic. They would have one hell of an entertaining rivalry. Overall, Enzo & Cass are a pretty well polished act, and probably the best thing going in NXT. I think they're ready to step up.

 

[DetectiveZelix]

I'm hoping for Enzo and Cas, They're going to be a fun badass team for the main roster

 

[ShinChan]

I didnt vote for Enzo & Cass because i think the tag division is already too big and too ruined.... Only New Day is shining there...... Dudleyz; Lucha Dragons; Ascension ; Sheamus/Barrett; PTP; etc so many teams are there and getting ruined by their booking.... So i didnt want Enzo & Cass to be lost in the shuffle

 

[Messiah]

Finn Balor seems like the only guy who's ready to debut. I really can't stand him though. i hope he never debuts on the main roster but it's going to happen sooner or later.

 

[Sid Schmid]

If you don't appreciate Finn Balor then you don't like wrestling...
Anyway back on topic. There are a few that are ready. Bayley, Balor, Enzo and Cass could easily figure prominently on the main roster

 

[OYDK]

I think it will be Zayn once he's ready to return. The NXT landscape has kind of left him behind at this point and although Zayn/Balor for the NXT title would be awesome, it benefits everybody more to have him debut in a feud with Kevin Owens. I doubt WWE will go through with Owens/Zayn for the IC title at Mania, but if you wanted to bring him in with a bang, that would be how you do it. Don't know if WWE sees Owens and Zayn as a strong enough Mania match though. Hopefully they do something with him... would rather him stay on NXT than be placed in the same role as Neville, but yeah, I'll go with Sami Zayn.

There are a few other options who I see coming up sooner rather than later;

Baron Corbin: There seems to have been a lot of talk lately in WWE regarding the debut of Baron Corbin and the best way to bring him in. We saw him discussed as the third man to team with AmbReigns, he was mentioned on the HIAC pre-show as a possible US Open Challenger, and others have named him as the original option for Strowman's current role as the Wyatt enforcer. It seems inevitable that Corbin makes his debut sooner rather than later. He could honestly be the next one to move up.

Jordan and Gable: These guys have been so good that they may have leapfrogged teams like Enzo and Cass and Blake and Murphy for a main roster spot, which I'm fine with. These two SHOULD be brought in to the main roster fairly quickly so they can develop in front of the fans without having their gimmicks altered. Teams like Enzo and Cass in my opinion are better off in NXT for now as they still have yet to win the NXT Tag titles and they're one of the most significant acts on the show. I also think the hype will hurt them. Jordan and Gable brought on quietly to the main roster could see them replicate the success, as somebody else mentioned, of the WGTT.

The Vaudevillians: The Vaudevillians have done it all in NXT and once they drop the straps, they should move on to the main roster. The tag division could use some depth but I'm still a little piffed on how the LD and Ascension have been used. If that's what's in store for the NXT Tag Teams, just leave them on NXT.

Finn Balor: I think he's 34 at this point and if they want to get some serious mileage out of him like I think they do, they'll bring him up pretty soon. It all depends on when he loses the title.

I see Bailey staying on NXT for a while longer until others like Dana Brooke, Nia Jax, and Asuka are ready to carry the division. As of right now, Asuka and Emma seem like the only other reliable women in NXT (other than the Royce and Kay who are used as jobbers for some reason...) and that's going to have to change before Bailey drops the strap, much less gets called up. Joe could get a call-up but if they haven't done it yet, I don't see it happening. In all likelihood he could be brought up for a big program when the time is right, but it seems like he's locked in that veteran role in NXT. He'll probably hold the NXT title for a while after Balor drops it. Lastly, Apollo Crews doesn't need to be in NXT. He's ready to make a huge impact on the main roster, but they'll probably develop his character a little more on NXT.

Top picks are Zayn, Corbin, or Jordan and Gable.

 

[timothy26]

I'm not 100 percent sure what I'm missing but I just can't seem to like Baron Corbin, I don't see alot of star power in him and apart from him being quite tall, he doesn't actually seem that intimidating to me which isn't good if they are going to try and push him as a monster or a bad ass but that's just my opinion

Would love to see Sami Zayn debut and I'm a big fan of Enzo Amore and Big Cass although I would be concerned they wouldn't get used properly, I think them vs New Day would be fun

I was under the impression Samoa Joe's contract was for NXT only?

 

[Mustang Sally]

Some said Sami Zayn should be the next nXt call-up..... But i think he already debuted on main roster in a losing effort to John Cena in US Title Open Challenge..

Yes, that might be the most interesting question in this subject. The presumption is that Sami would be a member of the main roster already had he not suffered injury in his first big league match. But since he did, does that mean he will still be there when he returns.....or will the company want to ease him back into the wars by giving him a couple of months in NXT before moving him up for good?

As for Finn Balor, I think he would already be a member of the big team.....he surely possesses major league ability.....but the guys who went up before him are still making their initial impact and management doesn't want to clutter the field too much. That, plus the fact WWE has been learning with the women; if you send too many NXT performers up at the same time, you decimate the minor league roster and make it harder for them to sustain interest in their growing product.

 

[TheMainEvent]

I would love to see Sami Zayn return at the Rumble and eliminate Owens to lead to a Mania feud. Aside from him I really don't see anyone joining the main roster until after Wrestlemania. Maybe we'll get a surprise Finn Balor debut at the Rumble if he loses rthe title to Samoa Joe but doubtful. However following Mania I can see a few call ups if they also work on replenishing the NXT roster.

Enzo & Cass - are ready for the main roster now. The pop they got in Brooklyn was huge and despite their in ring lacking skills to an extent they are the definition of Sports Entetainment. I still have high hopes of Enzo becoming a bit of this generations Eddie Guerrero (character not in ring skill)

James Storm - I still think he can make a big impact on the main roster as the Bearded Outlaw hell raiser character. Not since Stone Cold has there really been that redneck badass character and he fits it perfectly. In the right opportunity he could blow up huge with the WWE audience.

Jordan & Gable - by then they should have the NXT Tag titles and a move to the main roster could really help revitalize the tag division.

 

[Hollywood Naitch]

I think it will be Finn Balor, keeping the tradition of the NXT Champion being the next guy to move up to the main roster- as with Bo Dallas, Neville and Kevin Owens. I don't think we'll see him drop the NXT belt at the NXT event in the UK, but I don't see him holding it past WrestleMania, he should be one of the guys debuting on the main roster on the next night's Raw. He's been ready since the day he walked through the door, but he's now paid his dues in NXT, so it's time for the demon to make his debut on the big show.

I'd also like to see Enzo Amore & Big Cass move up to become permanent main roster talents too. They aren't incredible in the ring, but have so much charisma and are incredibly over! They could definitely bring some fans over to watching the WWE Tag Team division if they indeed do get called up. They remind me as kind of a modern day New Age Outlaws, where the actual wrestling took a back seat to the personality and charisma of Road Dogg and Billy Gunn. I'd love to see them on the main roster sooner rather than later. They deserve the opportunity.

 

[BestSportsEntertainer]

Sami Zayn is already on the main roster. He answered John Cena's US Open Challenge and suffered an injury during their match.

Samoa Joe should be the next NXT call-up.

He's already fairly old (36) and a proven main eventer (albeit in TNA), so he shouldn't have been in NXT in the first place.

He'd be a strong addition to the upper mid-card scene.

Finn Balor would also be a great candidate. His gimmick, in-ring skills, and charisma are great.

 

[ShinChan]

I am surprised that noone voted for The Vaudevillains or Blake & Murphy or Scott Dawson & Dash Wilder....

 

[ShinChan]

Except Dash Wilder/Scott Dawson; Both teams are the former/latter nXt tag champs and maybe Wilder/Dawson will also be the tag champs..... Still I or anyone are interested in them?
