WWE NXT Cuts Expected; One Wrestler Touted For Main Roster
WWE will likely announce roster cuts soon, but one NXT name is Raw or SmackDown bound.
PWInsider Elite is reporting that WWE will likely announce several cuts to the NXT roster soon. It's not all doom and gloom for developmental though, because NXT's Joe Gacy is expected to land on Raw or SmackDown imminently.
The website noted that Gacy had been spotted at WWE's Performance Center recently. There's nothing out of the ordinary there, to be fair, but PWInsider's sources behind the scenes told them Gacy met with higher-ups to discuss what kind of role he'd have on the main roster.
There's no word just yet on exactly who would be let go in the latest round of cuts. It's unlikely to be anyone who has been featured on NXT TV recently though. Obviously, it sucks when any pro wrestler is released, so here's hoping anyone terminated has a backup plan.
Joe Gacy has been with WWE since 2020, so he's probably overdue a gig on one of the bigger weeklies. Previously, Gacy was always cast as a heel on NXT, but recently turned face to feud with new Raw draftee Dijak. It is notable that Triple H decided not to include Gacy in the 2024 Draft.
