WWE Rumors: How many more NXT stars could get called up to WWE RAW and SmackDown?

​

Vince McMahon

What's the story?

The McMahon's have 'shaken' up WWE RAW. It's a new era, with hands-on control of RAW and SmackDown by the McMahon family. That's the situation for WWE heading into 2019.

The McMahon's have promised changes in multiple ways including new faces. 6 Superstars have already been called up from NXT - Lars Sullivan, EC3, Nikki Cross, Lacey Evans, and Heavy Machinery and will debut on RAW and SmackDown in the coming weeks.

We now have an update on whether more names could join them on the main roster.

In case you didn't know...

Following weeks of disappointing ratings, Vince McMahon appeared on WWE RAW earlier this week and along with the rest of the McMahon family, announced that changes were coming to RAW and that the days of middle managers being in charge were over.

Shane McMahon dismissed SmackDown General Manager Paige the next night on SmackDown Live, despite Paige being popular among fans.

The heart of the matter

Bryan Alvarez was recently asked about more NXT stars possibly moving to the main roster. Alvarez replied:

“What I heard is that this is it for now. That means nothing because Vince can wake up tomorrow and go, ‘Damnit, everyone’s still angry, I need to call up some more guys!’ He can call up anybody he wants, but as of Monday/Tuesday when they announced the call-ups that are going to be coming up, that’s it for now. It wasn’t like more are coming up. Obviously, there will be more coming up at some point. It wasn’t like here are the ones we were going to call-up, but after January 1st, we’re gonna call up some more.” H/T: RingsideNews

What's next?

Although no more NXT call-ups are planned as of now, it looks like the situation could change fast.
