Royal Rumble 2019: How 3 NXT call-ups could make an impact on the Royal Rumble matches
WWE took a big step by calling up not one, not two, but six superstars to the main roster at the end of last year.
While Lars Sullivan was the only man announced to head to the main roster, he was soon joined by five other superstars who have either already competed in televised matches on the main roster or are waiting for their turn.
Currently, the six superstars haven’t been assigned a brand and therefore we have seen all but Lars appear in short segments or in the background on Raw and SmackDown Live.
One thing is for certain that WWE will definitely try to push at least half of these superstars at the Royal Rumble on Sunday, and we could actually see all six superstars in action in the two Royal Rumble matches.
Keeping that in mind, we have made scenarios of how WWE can use this opportunity to push at least four of these superstars using the Royal Rumble event.
Take a look at the 3 NXT call-ups who could make an impact on either of the Royal Rumble matches and share your views on the same in the comments section!
#3 Heavy Machinery
The name says it all. They aren’t just heavy, but they also work perfectly together like a well-oiled machine.
The team of Otis Dozovic (310lbs) and Tucker Knight (320lbs) are not just the two heaviest superstars who might enter the ring on Sunday, but also two of the most talented wrestlers in WWE today.
Being heavy has its added advantage in Royal Rumble matches, as other superstars struggle to eliminate big men over the top rope easily. If both men enter the match in close proximity to each other, eliminating them could prove to be a mammoth task, unless you’re Braun Strowman.
If the two men get a spot in the men’s Royal Rumble match, then we could see them eliminate at least half a dozen men themselves thanks to their sheer size and strength.
If the WWE is ready to commit more to the Tag Team division of the two main brands, especially Raw, then we could see them have Heavy Machinery eliminate The New Day or a similar established tag team to start a new angle involving the duo.
