Who needs to be called up from NXT next? Thoughts

Breeze. He's been there for far too long. I'm not sure how well his gimmick will work on the main roster(s), though. I hope he doesn't become a jobber.

Breeze. The mid card could use him for some quality matches. Right now, we're seeing the same old shit with 8 man clusterfucks. Breeze deserves his own feud, preferably with Ziggler, where he goes over. The IC title scene could really use him instead of The Miz and Big Show.

After the tag team tournament is over, call up Enzo & Big Cass. If they aren't winning the titles, set them free. They're just wasting away on NXT.

I've been under the impression that they put the belts on the Vaudevillains so that they can transition them to Gable/Jordan. Then the inevitable Gable/Jordan vs Enzo/Cass feud, with Enzo/Cass finally getting their moment after a long chase.

That has the potential to be absolute gold. I'm fine with waiting for it, even if it takes another year to complete.

- I think he recently hit his peak and is not getting any better as a performer, do some gimmick tweaks so the main roster audience doesn't automatically think he's another comedy bitch ass jobber and give him a midcard push.

- I don't need to give any explanation, when he is cleared to wrestle give him one last NXT feud and call the dude up.

- I may be getting shit for this but the guy is 34, hit his peak as a performer long ago and just found a gimmick that works. A few more months of developing and tweaking that gimmick and call him up to the main roster and give him a shot I SAY


No divas and tag teams at the moment.

Enzo and Big Cass. Seriously. These two would be great up there.

They're slowly getting out shined by people in NXT right now so they really do need to move them.

That and I think Tyler Breeze is kind of pointless at this moment in NXT.

Move'em up!

Nice idea :lol

I can't wait for Breeze to get called up, he will be a fantastic addition to the mid card. Hopefully they don't water him down and take away all the things that make him great because his character as it is, is fantastic.

If we mean this year, NOBODY. The roster is too crowded and it's scary because someone might get lost in the shuffle.

but next year? Uh, my money is on Sami Zayn, he's the most main roster ready they have when they heal up that injury.

Next after, Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady (w/ Carmella) are the most main roster ready (at least in terms of what they are meant to do: mic work)

Enzo and Cass. They are the only ones who have a strong enough gimmick to have a good chance of avoiding jobber status. Enzo's in-ring skills have improved and are good enough.

I think Balor could genuinely be better of staying in NXT if the money works. I struggle to see him really impacting on main roster.

I agree with the consensus that no one else this year needs to go up. We've got enough guys on the main roster. We need better stories on the main roster, not more guys.

But when the time is right, who should be called up next? I think Zayn by the time of his return will be an official main roster guy. Balor is clearly the next big name to make his debut next. I would save him for the Raw after WrestleMania. Breeze has nothing to do. His time to win the title in NXT has pretty much come and gone. Time to move on.

We don't need another female call up for a while. We've got enough girls on the main roster that they need to properly organize and utilize as is. Obviously, Bayley is next in line. But again, wait until after WrestleMania. Bayley should hold the title that long anyways.

I agree with the guys who say that the next call-ups should happen next year, the main roster IS too crowded right now. I'd like to see Sami & Breeze get the call-up the most though. I don't get the Enzo/Cass/Carmella thing, they are all talk and not much substance.

Definitely won't be anymore this year unless any are used in Survivor Series but thats doubtful especially when RR would be a better environment, Breeze & Zayn as well as Balor would be the natural picks in line but NXT needs solidifying again which they're slowly doing using Joe, Rhyno & soon to be Corbin & Apollo after his early roster squash push towards ME status; tagteam wise wih Vaudevillians finally NXT tagchamps in a division of great competition it'd make sense that either Enzo/Caz take the titles next or Gable/Jordan who are a fantastic talent almost like Haas/Shelton level. Vaudevillians eventually dropping to any of those just mentioned would be worthy of a call-up after all the years spent in NXT and any women are too early but obviously when Bayley does get to the end of her run she would be a natural choice.
