Hideo Itami (KENTA) and Finn Balor (Prince Devitt) are expected to be the next two NXT talents to be called up before anyone else.
According to sources, Itama wants to be part of the NXT system while he adapts to the WWE in-ring style and improves his English. Balor, however, “wasn’t brought in to spend (two or) three years” in developmental. He will have a run in NXT due to the way WWE develops talent, but he could be brought to RAW “before 90% or 95% of the talent in NXT that’s there now will be up.”
