WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Very High On Two NXT Stars

That’s a good place to be. To say NXT has been shaken up in a huge way would be the understatement of the day. NXT is nowhere near what it used to be just a few months ago, but that opens up a lot of options for wrestlers. Above all else, there are several spots available for wrestlers to get a chance to break through and show what they can do. WWE even already has its eye on a few people.

Jon Alba is reporting that there are several people in NXT who are high on the team of Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams. The two worked a dark match during this week’s edition of SmackDown and were said to come off looking like stars. Hayes has had his supporters since his match with Adam Cole earlier this year and there is a possibility of him being called up to the main roster in the spring. Hayes is currently the NXT North American Champion.

In talking to some people in #WWE last night, there are high hopes for the combo of Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams. The two worked a dark match last night on #Smackdown. Very favorable opinions from those I spoke with, several saying they looked like "stars."

As I've said in the past here, Carmelo Hayes has had a lot of support from higher-ups in NXT, especially coming out of the Adam Cole match. I talked about it a couple of weeks ago and stand by it, I think a spring season call-up and push is very possible. #WWE

These two do have potential. Check out what they have done in NXT:

Opinion: I’ve heard worse ideas, but I could also go for these two staying in NXT for a good while longer. At the end of the day, Hayes is one of the bright spots in NXT and they need all the help they can get at the moment. You can only do so much by having these talented people moved in and out of NXT as fast as possible, so maybe try letting him stick around for more than a few months.

What do you think of Hayes and Williams? How would they fare on the main roster? Let us know in the comments below.
