In regards to WWE NXT Champion Finn Balor coming to the main roster, he could be called up by the end of the year but there are still short-term plans for him to be the face of NXT, according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Live today.

There is still talk of having Samoa Joe defeat Balor for the NXT Title at NXT Takeover: Dallas, but that is not a lock.

We noted before that there has been talk of bringing Joe to the main roster, possibly as soon as the post-WrestleMania RAW, but a title win would extend the Balor vs. Joe feud and keep Joe in NXT for a little while longer.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, plans are currently in place to bring Samoa Joe to the WWE main roster following WrestleMania, maybe even as early as the post-Mania episode of Raw. There has also been talk in WWE of having Samoa Joe defeat Finn Balor for the NXT Title, and if that takes place then it’s likely Joe’s main roster debut will be delayed.

In addition to Joe, there has been a lot of consideration lately being given to the idea of bringing Sami Zayn up to the main roster to feud with Kevin Owens.

 Regarding Finn Balor’s main roster status, it appears unlikely he will be called up after WrestleMania, as officials are still looking at him to be the face of the NXT brand past March.

Finn Balor Wins NXT Title At “Beast In The East”, What’s Next For Kevin Owens?

Finn Balor defeated Kevin Owens for the NXT Championship at the “Beast In The East” event in Tokyo, Japan. Balor tweeted about his big win:

 

Kevin Owens - NXT Champ

I assume since Owens dropped the NXT Title to Balor, Owens will now most likely be a full time member of the WWE main roster going forward. And now with Owens no longer the NXT Champion, I expect to see Owens defeat John Cena for the United States Title at Battleground on July 19th.

Please let me know what you think.
