10 WWE NXT Wrestlers Who Should Go To Raw Or SmackDown Next

Much like NXT North American Champion Keith Lee, NXT UK Champion WALTER still definitely has some unresolved conflicts in NXT. That being said, other NXT title holders of yore, such as Kevin Owens, Adam Cole (bay bay), and Tommaso Ciampa (among others) have at least appeared on main roster TV without dropping their titles. And WALTER should, too.

Let's not mince words - WALTER is a *beast*. While he doesn't have the build of an Adonis, he makes up for it with unparalleled athleticism, a diverse move set, and perhaps the hardest chops ever performed in pro-wrestling. Though WWE dropped the ball with WALTER's few main roster appearances thus far (seriously - watch back how unceremoniously he gets eliminated in his match at Survivor Series 2019), it's far from too late to redeem him.

And the best way that they could do that would be to have him feud with Drew McIntyre over the WWE Championship. After all, McIntyre's already felled Brock Lesnar and The Big Show in 1-on-1 competition... why not try his hand at another beast?

Of course, given current travel restrictions, WALTER will likely not be able to debut on the main roster (or even wrestle in NXT) for the foreseeable future. But, it's a nifty thought nonetheless.
