It’s been reported by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that WWE could debut some of the superstars who competed in the United Kingdom tournament at this Saturday’s NXT Takeover event, as some of them are being brought into San Antonio for the event.
There’s also been talk of making Bobby Roode the new face of NXT, so he could defeat Shinsuke Nakamura in the show’s main event, which may lead to The King of Strong Style being called up to the main roster.
