10 Roster Trades WWE MUST Make In 2021

8. Andrade To NXT

Andrade was the best NXT Champion that the brand has ever had. He put on the greatest NXT Championship match of all time with Johnny Gargano at TakeOver: Philadelphia, consistently had the aura of the top guy, had scintillating matches on television and dropped the belt in a minor classic to Aleister Black. Andrade should have held the belt for far longer than he did, but what we got was absolutely miraculous.

He has done nothing on the main roster in two years beyond an incredible feud with Rey Mysterio that consistently got screwed out of a WrestleMania showcase, team with Angel Garza in a pairing that's not lead anywhere and lose his manager Zelina Vega for no reason whatsoever. He is an elite talent that the main roster has no ideas for, instead of being world champion, he's barely on TV when he's healthy and loses all of the time.

If WWE wants to keep him, putting him back on NXT where he can be his true self as a worker would be a good step. The prospect of him working Kyle O'Reilly or Finn Balor is tantalising.
