10 NXT Rookies WWE Called Up Too Early

1. The Vaudevillains

The Vaudevillains were brought to an abrupt end earlier this year after Simon Gotch was released from his WWE contract just a year after being called up to join the revamped SmackDown Live following the return of the brand extension.

As for Aiden English, he appears to have some hope of a future under Vince McMahon's employ, but it's going to be a while before fans can ever erase the image of him crying after being put on Chris Jericho's List from their collective memory.

The great shame in all of this is that, together, they made a half-decent duo, holding the NXT Tag Titles for two months in mid-2015 after a solid match against Blake and Murphy at TakeOver: Brooklyn.

Like many others, they were simply lost in the shuffle after being called up to the main roster, something that perhaps could have been avoided had they spent another year earning their stripes in Orlando.
