That’s it? WWE has all kinds of wrestlers on its roster, with several of them being in the NXT developmental system. Those wrestlers are the ones who are waiting for their big break and a move up to the main roster, though that can take some time. A wrestler seemed to be on the way up to the main roster but that does not appear to be the case after all. Or at least after Sunday.

Last weekend at NXT Halloween Havoc, Tony D’Angelo defeated Oba Femi to retain the North American Title. This was followed by a rumor that said Femi had been saying his goodbyes to NXT, suggesting that he would be moving up to the main roster. However, according to Fightful Select, sources in NXT have no idea about Femi leaving NXT, suggesting that he will not be moving up at the moment. Femi is seen as a future main roster star, but that is not happening as of yet.
He’s a star in NXT. Check out Femi’s time on the brand:
Opinion: I’m not surprised that there were rumors of Femi coming up to the main roster as there is definitely potential for him to move up to one of the bigger shows. That seems like something that is going to be happening sooner or later and now we just have to wait. Femi is a future star in the making and it should be great to see what he can do on the main roster. We’ll just have to wait for that to be the case.
What do you think of Femi’s time in NXT? How will he do on the main roster? Let us know in the comments below.
