As we have been reporting, NXT Superstar Bray Wyatt is reportedly close to being called up to the main roster, as many within WWE are very happy with his recent character and performance. However, he may not be the only NXT rookies headed to Monday Night Raw in the coming months.
In what is mostly speculation at this point, the former independent icon El Generico sent out a Tweet to his former Ring of Honor friend Seth Rollins this week, simply stating “I believe in The Shield”. Generico – now wrestling as Sami Zayn – is being praised by WWE officials and personalities, and was featured in a match against WWE Superstar Antonio Cesaro during this week’s NXT television tapings.
@wwerollins I believe in the Shield.

During that same NXT television taping, an incident took place [LINK: SPOILERS] that would free up British wrestling talent PAC – now Adrian Neville – to make his main roster debut. Neville has been working in NXT as one half of the tag team champions since January of this year, and is also among those held in very high regard within the developmental program. He was used prominently during WrestleMania AXXESS events this year.
For now, this information is mostly rumor and speculation. We will continue to update the situations hould any concrete news or reports become available.
