WWE recently made the call to bring five women from NXT to the main roster and their reasoning for doing so is pretty simple.
Sources tell us Vince McMahon made the decision to call up multiple women from NXT shortly after the Mae Young Classic took place because he felt like the women’s divisions had been getting stale.
Mandy Rose was the first name mentioned, since creative had pitched ideas for her debut in the past.
In case you missed it,
Mandy and Sonya Deville debuted on Raw with Paige during her return.
Liv Morgan, Sarah Logan and Ruby Riot debuted on SmackDown Live the following night.
With so many debuts at once, rumors began to swirl about a possible women’s Royal Rumble match this year — for what it’s worth though, our sources haven’t heard anything about that being in the works. However, that doesn’t mean it’s not a possibility.
