NXT has been consolidating itself as the great talent factory of WWE for years, and everything points to a new wave of promotions about to become a reality. According to a recent report, several superstars from the developmental territory could make the jump to the main roster in a matter of weeks, marking the beginning of a decisive stage for the golden brand.

The latest development came through Bryan Alvarez, who reported that WWE plans to promote several standout figures "in the next month or so." The internal feedback, according to the same source, is that most of the discussed names have been ready for the leap for some time and their promotion is "well-deserved."

Among the talents rumored most strongly are Oba Femi and Trick Williams, two champions who have defined NXT's recent identity. Alongside them, names like Jordynne Grace, Ricky Saints, and Tony D'Angelo are also mentioned, although none are confirmed and everything remains speculative for now.

There are several major promotions planned, and many of them are more than ready to join the main roster.

In recent months, WWE has already been testing new figures on television. Wrestlers like Sol Ruca, Zaria, Je'Von Evans, and Lash Legend have made sporadic appearances on Raw and SmackDown, receiving positive responses from the audience. There is also much talk about Joe Hendry, who is already an official NXT superstar.

This weekend, Deadline is taking place, an event that could wrap up some storylines and potentially allow some talents to break through to be catapulted to the main roster.
