WWE Superstar Shake-Up: 8 NXT Superstars who could make it to the main roster

Modified Apr 12, 2019 07:30 GMT

Who from NXT, NXT UK and 205 Live might join Raw or SmackDown next week?

#4 Candice LeRae

Fans not familiar with LeRae got a taste at the 2019 Women's Royal Rumble match.

Like Kairi Sane, LeRae has been touring with the main roster at SmackDown's house shows and live events.

She's was also in the Royal Rumble and the Women's WrestleMania Battle Royal like Sane, showing the readiness for the bigger stages of Raw and SmackDown.

I've said it before and others have as well, but she deserves more matches and spotlight rather than as the support system for new NXT Champion Johnny Gargano.

And if Bayley switches brands or turns heel in the near future, like Sane, LeRae is a natural babyface due to her style and appearance.

She was another indie success story who doesn't need much of any seasoning in NXT, so it would actually be a little shocking for her call-up to be prolonged any more. That is unless they want the couple to come up as a duo, but WWE doesn't often do things like that.
