Two NXT Stars To Be At SmackDown For WWE Draft
These two NXT names are set to be present for the first night of the WWE Draft.
Following the events of last night's episode of NXT, it does indeed appear that Pretty Deadly are set for a move to the WWE main roster.
For those who have yet to check out this week's Spring Breakin' edition of NXT, Pretty Deadly lost a Trunk Match to Tony D'Angelo and Channing 'Stacks' Lorenzo. Essentially a free-for-all Street Fight-esque war, this contest could only be won by stuffing your opponents in the trunk of a car. Not just did the Family secure victory by doing just that, but they also later took Elton Prince and Kit Wilson to the docks, where they made sure the English duo were "swimming with the fishes".
Many had presumed this way WWE's way of writing Pretty Deadly out of NXT ahead of a move to Raw or SmackDown, and that seems to be the case. Adding further fuel to that fire, PWInsider Elite now reports that the former NXT UK Tag Team Champions and NXT Tag Team Champions are scheduled to be at this week's SmackDown.
Of course, this next outing for WWE's blue brand will see the start of the WWE Draft, and the Draft will then continue on Monday's Raw, before wrapping up on WWE.com and WWE Digital.
This latest news comes hot on the heels of reports that Cora Jade has put herself "in the race" for a main roster move after recently impressing WWE officials, and names such as Zoey Stark, Roxanne Perez, Grayson Waller, Ilja Dragunov, Tyler Bate, Carmelo Hayes and Bron Breakker are amongst those being speculated for a call-up to Raw or SmackDown.
