NXT Star Expected To Receive WWE Main Roster Call-Up Soon

An absent NXT star is expected to receive a WWE main roster call-up in the near future according to a new backstage report.

It has now been over a month since WWE fans have seen Tony D’Angelo appear on the NXT television, with the former North American Champion seemingly killed off in vignette at a restaurant on the July 29 episode of NXT.

With little updates on the status of “The Don” since then, WrestleVotes Radio is reporting that D’Angelo’s name has been “circulating within creative recently”, with the 30-year-old expected to be main roster bound before the end of the year:

“Sources indicate Tony D’Angelo’s name has been circulating within creative recently, with some expecting him to debut on the main roster before year’s end.”

In regards to D’Angelo’s mobster WWE character, it is expected that Tony D will retain the gimmick on the main roster, albeit with some minor alterations potentially being made:

“We’re told his mobster-style gimmick is expected to remain at this time, though it will likely be slightly refined before he hits either Raw or SmackDown.

According to WrestleVotes, many within WWE “speak highly” of D’Angelo’s work ethic and personality behind the scenes:

“D’Angelo, a former NXT North American Champion, is said to have a strong work ethic and standout personality traits that many within the company speak highly of.”

D’Angelo has been a part of NXT since 2021, with “The Don” winning the NXT North American Championship, NXT Heritage Cup and NXT Tag Team Championships during his four years on the brand.

We will provide updates on D’Angelo’s WWE main roster call-up status as more information becomes available.
