Now that WrestleMania 41 is in the rearview mirror, all eyes are set on the next big company wide event in the WWE Draft 2025.
While there will be several stars moving between Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown, there will also be some NXT call-ups that move to the WWE main roster.
From former and current champions to some important characters, NXT should have a major influence on what happens during this year’s Draft.
Here are seven potential NXT main roster call-ups in the WWE Draft 2025.
7. Roxanne Perez
Ever since her record-breaking performance in the 2025 Women’s Royal Rumble Match, many fans have been wondering when Roxanne Perez will make a permanent move to the WWE main roster.
While The Prodigy has made several appearances on Raw and SmackDown in 2025, she has remained a mainstay on the NXT brand.
After two reigns as NXT Women’s Champion and being a top star for the brand, Perez has done everything she can on the brand and deserves to get a long awaited main roster call-up.
The WWE Draft 2025 should bring the inevitable call-up for Roxanne, with it only a matter of time before the 23 year old star becomes a main event level star on Mondays or Fridays.

6. Giulia
Despite debuting in WWE during WrestleMania 40 weekend in 2024, Giulia has only been competing in the company since September of last year.
In that short amount of time, the former STARDOM talent has already captured the NXT Women’s Champion and showcased why she was considered one of the biggest stars in Japan for years.
On the April 21 WWE Raw After WrestleMania 41, Giulia made her main roster debut alongside Roxanne Perez in an attack on WWE Women’s World Champion IYO SKY and NXT Women’s Champion Stephanie Vaquer.
With a possible alliance between the two former NXT Women’s Champions, Giulia could find a prominent role after being called up to the main roster in the WWE Draft 2025 over on Monday Night Raw.

5. Tony D’Angelo
Debuting as one of the more prominent new characters during the NXT 2.0 days, Tony D’Angelo was introduced and quickly became one of the stalwarts for the brand.
D’Angelo has accomplished a lot throughout his four year run on the brand, capturing the NXT Tag Team Championship, Heritage Cup and North American Championship.
With The D’Angelo Family now in a state of flux after the recent betrayal of Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo at NXT Stand & Deliver, it feels like now might be the right time for the former champion to make a move to the main roster.
Tony D has more than proven himself to be a capable in-ring performer and a versatile character, someone who would fit in well on the WWE main roster after his experience and growth in NXT.

4. Ethan Page
No one has ever had as rapid of a meteoric rise on the NXT brand quite like Ethan Page.
Debuting in WWE in May 2024, it only took the former AEW star less than two months t0 win the NXT Championship at the Heatwave premium live event last July.
Page has been NXT’s main heel character and feuded with some of the most popular babyfaces on the brand, such as Trick Williams and Je’Von Evans.
While it has been a short stint on the brand, All Ego feels more than ready to make the jump to the main roster in the WWE Draft 2025 where he should excel in the mid-card scene on Raw or SmackDown.

3. Trick Williams
For the better part of a year, many fans and critics have speculated and wondered when Trick Williams will make the jump to the WWE main roster.
After a few appearances on SmackDown, Williams received some of the loudest reactions from the audience and showcased that his popularity is not just isolated to the NXT brand.
Trick’s recent attitude change could be seen as giving him some much needed character depth that should help in making the transition to Raw or SmackDown.
Whether it be feuding with top talent like Drew McIntyre and Jey Uso or reuniting with Carmelo Hayes, the possibilities seem endless for Trick on the main roster after getting called up in the WWE Draft 2025.

2. Fraxiom
At NXT Stand & Deliver, Hank and Tank defeated Fraxiom to win the NXT Tag Team Championship.
Following two critically acclaimed reigns as NXT Tag Team Champions, Nathan Frazer and Axiom has earned their place among the best tag teams in all of WWE.
After the two men have made singles debuts on the SmackDown brand earlier this year, it seems like Fraxiom have proven to the world that they are more than ready to be among the upper echelon of tag team wrestling.
While Frazer and Axiom could shine in singles run, it will feel criminal to split the duo up when both Raw and SmackDown would benefit from their addition to the main roster tag team division.

1. Oba Femi
Oba Femi’s domination over the NXT brand has been one of the more remarkable runs of anyone trained at the WWE Performance Center.
Signing with WWE in 2021, Femi made his debut in 2023 and quickly won the Breakout Tournament before going on to cash in to become the NXT North American Championship.
After setting the record for the longest reign as North American Champion, Oba wasted no time in reestablishing his dominance by winning the Iron Survivor Challenge at Deadline 2024 and then the NXT Championship at New Year’s Evil 2025.
While he currently stands atop of the NXT mountain with the top prize on the brand, Femi could be considered a hot commodity for Raw and SmackDown to snag up in the WWE Draft 2025.
