NXT tag team phenoms the Creed Brothers look set to make their main roster debuts on WWE Raw this Monday night.

On Saturday, Chad Gable took to X (formerly Twitter) to humble brag about Alpha Academy having a successful swing through Germany, issuing an open challenge for Raw and daring any tag team to "Step up and SHOOSH!"

Then on Sunday afternoon, Julius Creed jumped into the fray:

With the open challenge answered, Dave Meltzer speculated on a potential main roster call-up for Brutus and Julius in the latest Wrestling Observer/Figure Four Online Daily Update:

- The Creeds get a shot at the main roster on Raw tomorrow. That's very interesting only because of the question as to whether it's just a one time thing or they are being called up.

The Creeds have been one of the most impressive tag teams in NXT in recent years, displaying some insane feats of strength and skill. Julius' one-armed powerbomb of Jagger Reid while he had Rip Fowler locked in an anklelock was just one of those jaw-dropping moments.

At this stage, the Creed Brothers are likely ready for a main roster run, though it remains to be seen if this is a true call-up or a one-time guest spot to showcase them to Raw fans and try to steer some viewers to NXT. The Creed Brothers are set to take on Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo in a "tables, ladders and scares" match on NXT Halloween Havoc on Tuesday night.
