5 WWE NXT Wrestlers Ready For The Main Roster (And 5 Who Should Stay Put)
5. Stay Put - Ember Moon
Ember’s main event push was, through no fault of her own, a bit of a damp squib. The enigmatic star was wasted first on Raw, then on Smackdown, subjected to a losing streak, and shortly after shuttled off back to the black and gold brand.
When she returned to NXT after rehabbing an ankle injury, things changed immediately. She returned in exciting (though sadly crowdless) circumstances, being presented as the big deal she has every ability to be, and has since helped establish the women’s tag division alongside Shotzi Blackheart.
She has yet to establish herself at the top of the women’s roster, but had a quality match against Raquel Gonzalez at In Your House, and has been kept consistently strong in her first eight months back on the brand.
Ember Moon just seems to be a better fit on NXT at present, where her wild character and fast pace gels nicely with many of the division’s other top competitors. She certainly could make a Balor-esque second return to the main roster, but it shouldn’t be any time in the immediate future.
