WWE NXT has seen a lot of roster overturn over the last year with stars coming to the brand and completely changing the landscape.
From Ricky Saints and Jordynne Grace to the recent arrival of Mariah May, these talents have added depth to the roster and helped to bolster the appeal of NXT overall.
When looking at the current free agency market, there are more stars who could be signed to NXT that would further bring something new to the table right now.
Here are six potential new WWE NXT signings.
6. Mike Santana
At WWE NXT Battleground, TNA Wrestling’s Mike Santana first appeared in the company in a backstage segment.
From there, Santana has played a major role on NXT TV with matches against Tavion Heights and Trick Williams over the past few weeks.
According to reports, the former AEW star has impressed those in management and has been a topic of conversation among those backstage.
With the news coming out that his TNA Wrestling contract expires at the end of 2025, it feels like a no-brainer signing for NXT to bring in Santana to continue playing a significant role on the brand moving forward.

5. Sean Legacy
Ever since his stellar performance in the 25-man battle royal on the May 6 episode of WWE NXT, Sean Legacy has felt like someone who could break out on the company’s programming.
As one of the standouts on WWE Evolve, Legacy has shined due to his tremendous in-ring ability and experience despite being a WWE ID signing.
Not looking out of place alongside the likes of Je’Von Evans and Ethan Page, Legacy has more than proven why he should be a valuable asset to WWE NXT.
Considering his NXT North American Championship match scheduled for the June 10 episode, Legacy could win his way to a permanent role on the brand.

4. Anthony Luke
WWE LFG: Legends and Future Greats introduced the fanbase to several up-and-coming stars to keep their eyes on.
While Jasper Troy and Tyra Mae Steele won their NXT contracts on this first season, there were other talent who have showcased themselves to be ready for the opportunity on the brand as well.
One such star is “Showtime” Anthony Luke who was coached by WWE Hall of Famer Booker T.
Despite coming up short to Troy in the playoffs, Luke has the poise, presence and in-ring skills to be someone who could provide essential depth to the men’s division on NXT immediately and should be considered for a spot on the roster.

3. Joe Hendry
Debuting on WWE NXT in May 2024, Joe Hendry has seen his popularity skyrocket since arriving in the company.
As one of the faces of TNA Wrestling, Hendry has helped lead a renaissance for the promotion and seen his star rise at the same time.
After his recent appearances at WWE Royal Rumble 2025 and WrestleMania 41, there is no denying that Hendry is ready for the main stage.
Signing with NXT would provide Hendry with the right start where he could be among the most popular male stars on the brand and help bring more eyes to the CW show, providing someone who has a ton of charisma.

2. Kylie Rae
Signing as the most experienced WWE ID recruit, Kylie Rae was seen as someone who wouldn’t have to wait too long to be given an opportunity in the company.
Over on WWE Evolve, Rae has been one of the most prominently featured female stars on the brand.
Although she came up short in her bid to become the first WWE Evolve Women’s Champion, Kylie has everything it takes to be a champion and to join the NXT brand in the near future.
With the NXT women’s division currently in a rebuilding phase, Rae is someone who could instantly become a crucial addition that adds her veteran experience and likeable babyface persona to the roster from day one.

1. The Vanity Project (Jackson Drake, Zayda Steel, Bryce Donovan & Swipe Right)
Since the start of the WWE Evolve revival, there has been one act that have dominated the scene completely and that is The Vanity Project.
The stable consisting of Jackson Drake, Zayda Steel, Bryce Donovan and Swipe Right have been front and center in the brand’s revival and brought a flare of cockiness unlike anybody else on the show.
With Drake, Brad Baylor and Ricky Smokes all appearing on the June 3 episode of NXT, the door has been cracked open for the entire Vanity Project faction to make their way to the brand.
Now that Drake recently became the inaugural WWE Evolve Men’s Champion, it feels Vanity Project now have a bargaining chip that can be used to make more appearances and eventually sign with NXT as one entity.
