11 WWE Rumors that should come true

#8 Harper to work a lot of NXT events

Last week, Harper made a surprise appearance at the NXT Buffalo Live Event and challenged Ricochet for the NXT North American Championship. Although he had ended on the losing side, it was a good sign to see him work NXT live events rather than jobbing on the main roster.

Many fans deduced that it was a one-off as Buffalo is his home town. However, Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Radio speculates that it isn't the case. Here is what he said on the recent edition of the Wrestling Observer Live (heard via Ringsidenews.com):

“They sent Luke Harper to NXT. It’s not like he’s being sent down to NXT like he’s being demoted but the [Rowan] is on the shelf.They had him do the Buffalo New York show because he lives in Buffalo. They’re probably going to have him do some other NXT shows in the meantime.”

As mentioned previously, it is a good sign that he is working live events in NXT than jobbing on the main roster. NXT has grown leaps and bounds under the tutelage of Triple H and is in no manner considered inferior to the main roster. On the brighter side, they are consistently outshining those in the main roster.
