NXT Stars Spotted Backstage At This Week’s Monday Night RAW

WWE is seeing the progress of young and upcoming superstars in their development brand, NXT. In order to drive this growth further, many of those NXT prospects have been spotted wrestling on WWE Main Event. The show is taped prior to Monday Night RAW for a weekly one-hour show featuring mid-card and young superstars, and this week’s edition seems no different.

WWE Main Event show gives platform for these NXT superstars to gain real-life experience of performing in front of a larger audience, ahead of preparing for a future call-up on the main roster. In the last few weeks, we have seen NXT talents such as JD McDonagh, Joe Gacy, Zoey Stark, and Alba Fyre wrestle on the show.

WWE Main Event this week is set to feature some more talents from the developmental territory. According to a report by PW Insider, two NXT superstars, Malik Blade and Edris Enofe have been spotted backstage for tonight’s RAW with an assumption that they have been brought for the Main Event tapings.

The show has been called a learning opportunity for these rising stars, however, it does not necessarily mean that there are immediate plans for them to be called up to the main roster. Edris Enofe and Malik Blade were featured in a tag team match against Josh Briggs and Brooks Jensen at last week’s edition of NXT, losing to them in the process. We’ll have to wait and see if this stint on WWE Main Event could lead to Enofe and Malik moving to the main roster in the near future.

Do you think Edris Enofe and Malik Blade are ready to be called up to the main roster? Sound off in the comments!
