Signing with WWE in June 2025, Blake Monroe made her debut on the NXT brand and it did not take long for her to become a prominent star.

In less than a year on the brand, Monroe captured the NXT North American Championship and put on some notable feuds against major talent, such as Jordynne Grace, Sol Ruca and Tatum Paxley.

The former Mariah May has recently finished up her time on NXT and has been teasing her arrival on the main roster.

Pegged to be the newest member of the Friday Night SmackDown roster, Monroe could make her official debut on the main roster at the WWE Clash In Italy 2026 premium live event.

5. ZARIA

On the April 20 WWE Raw After WrestleMania 42, Sol Ruca made her official debut on the main roster in a bout against Liv Morgan.

During this contest, Sol’s former tag team partner ZARIA made a brief appearance to cost her former friend this matchup.

Other than being in Ruca’s corner and teaming with the newest member of the Raw roster, ZARIA has not received the spotlight on the main roster on her own as of yet.

ZARIA debuting at WWE Clash In Italy 2026 could see her finally being thrusted into the limelight in a way she hasn’t been used to since signing with the company.

4. Kendal Grey

Over the past few months, Kendal Grey has become one of the biggest breakout stars on the WWE NXT brand.

With her amateur wrestling background, Grey has impressed the fans and her peers for her rapid improvement inside the squared circle.

From her time as the longest reigning WWE Evolve Women’s Champion to winning the Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge, Grey has proven herself over and over again as someone who can be a major star on the main roster in the near future.

While it seems like she has more time to grow on NXT, WWE may decide to pull the trigger on a main roster call-up that could see Kendal Grey make a significant debut at the Clash In Italy event on May 31.

3. Lola Vice

At WWE NXT Stand & Deliver 2026, Lola Vice defeated Jacy Jayne and Kendal Grey to win the NXT Women’s Championship.

Over the past year, everyone has seen Vice greatly improve as an in-ring competitor and personality.

Now holding the top prize in the NXT women’s division, it feels like Vice could be on her path to a main roster call-up sooner rather than later.

After four years in WWE, Vice might be on her way to Raw and SmackDown following a debut at Clash In Italy 2026.

2. Hiromu Takahashi

In February, New Japan Pro Wrestling announced that Hiromu Takahashi was leaving the company after over 15 years with the promotion.

“The Ticking Time Bomb” is widely regarded as one of the greatest junior heavyweight wrestlers in the company’s history.

This has led to reports that Takahashi was expected to sign with WWE following his departure from NJPW.

Despite rumors that he will start on NXT, Hiromu has what it takes to get called up to the main roster and make his first appearance with the company at WWE Clash In Italy 2026.

1. Tony D’Angelo

Another star who picked up a major victory on the WWE NXT brand recently is Tony D’Angelo.

At WWE NXT Stand & Deliver 2026, D’Angelo defeated Joe Hendry, Ricky Saints and Ethan Page to win the NXT Championship.

Now sitting atop of NXT, Tony D is the first ever Grand Slam Champion in the brand’s history. After five years on the brand, it feels like D’Angelo may be ready to get called up to the WWE main roster.

Tony D debuting at WWE Clash In Italy 2026 makes a lot of sense due to his Italian background and could give him an introductory appearance before making his home on the main roster moving forward.
