NXT is producing a strong product for the CW each week. While Shawn Michaels has played a key role in the brand's resurgence as its leader, the impressive roster he oversees is the biggest reason why. The current NXT roster is as deep as it's been in a long time. However, unlike RAW and SmackDown , sooner or later, their best and brightest move on to the WWE main roster.
That will apparently be the case again soon, according to Bryan Alvarez of Wrestling Observer . He claims his sources tell him some notable stars from NXT will be getting called up in the "next month or so." With that in mind, let's look at seven wrestlers who could be among those imminent WWE callups.

Blake Monroe, FKA Mariah May, was ready for the main roster even before she joined NXT after an impressive run in AEW. However, the promotion chose to start her tenure on the black and gold brand, and she has been a highlight of NXT TV ever since. She has a presentation ready for the WWE spotlight and the charisma that makes performers millionaires. While she is currently the North American champion, losing the belt and moving up would not be a surprise.

Trick Williams has been ready for a move up for months. There is nothing else he can do in the brand after evolving into one of its greatest performers, so he has pretty much been doing the honors to help elevate new main event talent since the fall. With his fiancée, Lash Legend, now on SmackDown, Williams' landing on the blue brand in the new year seems very likely.

While he has not been in NXT as long as Williams, Ethan Page has also been ready for the big time for quite a while. He is the brand's top heel, and his work with Chelsea Green in recent months has been stellar. At this point, there is not much more for him to do at the Performance Center. He was deserving of being on the main roster even before he joined NXT, and after what he has done for the brand, he should be called up as soon as possible.

Surprisingly, NXT has not put one of its two women's titles on Jaida Parker. She has been one of the best performers in the women's division for the last year and certainly earned the right to be a champion. Maybe they knew she was headed to the WWE main roster early in 2026. If they are not going to make her a champion, there is not much more she can learn by sticking around at the Performance Center.

Hank 'n' Tank is the latest tag team the coaches at NXT have developed into a highly entertaining duo. They have a hard-hitting style and are tough, but they balance it with silly antics and being fun-loving characters. With their tag title run over and not being used much on TV lately, they could be getting the call to get a slot on RAW or SmackDown soon.

Oba Femi will go down as one of the most dominant forces in NXT history. On next week's edition of NXT on CW, he will look to become a two-time holder of the brand's top title. However, if he falls to Ricky Saints, it may signal the end of his run in Florida. With rumors swirling months ago about a call-up, he is a talent that WWE creative is licking its chops over getting to use.
