Multiple NXT Superstars Were Backstage At WWE SmackDown This Week

WWE SmackDown included a surprising addition to the program this week as Von Wagner was shown just standing next to Adam Pearce. This surprised a lot of fans, and some were crying out that it is far too soon to call up the NXT 2.0 Superstar who is currently in a partnership with Kyle O’Reilly. He wasn’t the only NXT Superstar backstage.

This is very interesting, because Lumis is booked in a match against Tony D’Angelo on NXT 2.0 next week. D’Angelo handed Indi Hartwell a dead fish, because he’s a wise guy like that. He is still very much a part of NXT’s storylines.

Cora Jade also appeared on NXT 2.0 in recent weeks as she wants a piece of Dakota Kai, who was also backstage this week for the blue brand. It was previously thought that Kai was getting a call-up as part of the 2021 WWE Draft, but she was sent back to NXT for some reason with a strange and insane new character tweak.
