It is the week of NXT callups to the main roster and SmackDown has also seen some of the best NXT has to offer make the jump to the main roster. These are 5 NXT superstars that have made their mark on NXT for the past 2 years and in the case of Jacy Jayne the last 4 years. She has brought all of Fatal Influence to the main roster. The WWE roster feels fresh and new feuds can begin all the way to SummerSlam. Blake Monroe and Ricky Saints have also made the jump.
Let’s talk about Jacy Jayne, Blake Monroe and Ricky Saints getting called up
SmackDown gets the Shakeup it needed
On Raw it was announced that Ethan Page, Joe Hendry and Sol Ruca will be called up to Raw and these were the creme De La Creme. The fans were worried who SmackDown would get. The answer is a dominant female faction from NXT, The Glamour and Ricky Saints. First let’s talk about Jacy Jayne and Fatal Influence. They were the ones that made their main roster debuts on SmackDown. And they made an impression. Fallon Henley and Lainey Reed were also accompanying Jacy Jayne. Jacy Jayne interrupted Rhea Ripley and she was getting booed out of the building. Such heat for a new talent having their first main roster appearance was very encouraging. Jacy Jayne handled all the boos effectively and cut a heel promo on Rhea Ripley. She has instantly established herself as one of the top heels along with Fallon Henley and Lainey Reed. Then she had a Banger match against Rhea Ripley where she showed that she will challenge Rhea Ripley for the title soon.
Blake Monroe was announced that she will debut on SmackDown in a few weeks. Blake Monroe is probably the biggest callup out of all these 6 NXT acts that have been called up. She has been on national TV in AEW and therefore she would not have any difficulty adjusting to SmackDown weekly TV. She will become another great heel in the division. The women’s roster on SmackDown has instantly become a must see with the addition of these 4 women. Fatal Influence has Fallon Henley and Lainey Reed as well. Fallon Henley is ready for a main roster Callup but it is Lainey Reed that will need guidance. She will have the entire women’s locker room to seek help from. NXT has been the best in women’s wrestling and these bunch of callups are proof.
Lastly Ricky Saints will debut on SmackDown next week. He has been a former NXT Champion and he has all the abilities to be the next big star in SmackDown. With WWE releasing so many talented wrestlers last night Ricky Saints can help fill the hole of Aleister Black. He will challenge for the United States Championship against Trick Williams in the not too distant future. These three NXT callups for SmackDown have the capability of turning around the fortunes of the brand. There might be more down the line in the year but it will be interesting to see the progress of all these 6 callups because the previous batch has been one of the best of all time. Oba Femi, Trick Williams, Je’Von Evans and Lash Legend.
