Several NXT stars are being heavily discussed for main roster call-ups following WrestleMania 42, according to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Those names are Ethan Page, Ricky Saints, Blake Monroe and Jacy Jayne.
Lola Vice and Tony D’Angelo winning the NXT Women’s and NXT Championships at NXT Revenge have removed their names from the immediate call-up conversation. The rest of the names remain firmly in the discussion.
Sol Ruca’s name also emerged following her performance at Saturday Night’s Main Event, where Meltzer noted she made a strong impression on decision-makers.
Meltzer reported the following: “Much of the talk in NXT at this point regards call-ups expected after WrestleMania. Vice and D’Angelo winning seems to take their names out of the discussion. Page, Saints, Monroe and Jayne have all been heavily discussed and Sol Ruca made a very favorable impression on Saturday Night’s Main Event.
Hendry is about due for such a call-up given the longer it doesn’t happen, the farther away you are from when his cult popularity peaked in 2024 and he’s 37 years old. If he’s not called up it would seem to mean they aren’t confident the act will at this point work on the big stage, although his act with the heavy entertainment and crowd participation is the type of something different that often works on the main roster as a non-main event gimmick personality.”
As of this writing, it’s unclear when the call-ups could happen, but historically, it’s on the post-WrestleMania episodes of Raw and SmackDown.
