#3 NXT Superstar spotted backstage at SmackDown Live

Could Kairi Sane be on her way up to the main roster soon?

We know that WWE has major hopes pinned on Kairi Sane. Why else would she be the winner of the first-ever Mae Young Classic Tournament?

We wonder if she's on the fast track to be called up at the moment. Sane was recently spotted backstage on SmackDown Live, posing with two fellow Japanese superstars recently. Will she be a part of the Women's Royal Rumble?

The coming weeks should reveal more in this regard. At this time, she's in a feud with fellow Mae Young Classic tournament finalist, Shayna Baszler.

Everyone would pop big if she did show up at the Royal Rumble, though!
