With post-WrestleMania historically a time when NXT talents make the move up to Raw or SmackDown, four NXT names in particular are said to be in the frame for a jump to the WWE main roster.

Per BodySlam.net, Jacy Jayne, Sol Ruca, Ethan Page, and Joe Hendry have all been "heavily discussed" for a main roster move.

In the case of Jacy Jayne, she lost the NXT Women's Title to Lola Vice at Stand & Deliver earlier this month, and then came up short against Vice in a rematch on last night's NXT broadcast. Likewise, this week's NXT show saw Ethan Page lose to NXT Champion Tony D'Angelo, and Joe Hendry performed a song that alluded to him moving to the main roster, before he was cut off by Keanu Carver.

As for Sol Ruca, she's scheduled for a Last Woman Standing bout against former tag partner Zaria on next week's NXT, a show that will be the second part of the brand's Revenge specials. And if Sol is being lined up for a move to the main roster, that match would certainly be a fitting swansong for her NXT run.

From your writer's viewpoint, all four of those names are main roster-ready and have plenty of upside. Additionally, names like Ricky Saints and Blake Monroe have also recently been rumoured for call-ups, and it remains to be seen what the landscape of NXT looks like if and when any such moves take place.
