NXT Star Discusses Whether He’s Worried About WWE Main Roster Creative

A current WWE NXT star has commented on whether he’d be worried about being moved to the main roster due to its creative.

We’ve seen countless times how the main roster has gotten hold of over NXT stars and made changes and/or booking decisions that have halted their momentum – see Keith Lee as the most recent example.

Kyle O’Reilly, who challenges Finn Balor for the NXT Title at TakeOver 31 tonight, has discussed whether he has any worries about how he and the rest of the Undisputed ERA would be used on the main roster. Speaking with talkSPORT, he said:

“We’ve kind of being the flag bearer for NXT since coming into this company. The NXT brand is something we truly, genuinely believe in and we’re proud to be a part of. There’s something about this place that is special. That said, we’re team players and we’ll do whatever the powers-that-be think is best. And I think there’s a lot of interesting matchups for Undisputed Era on Raw or SmackDown, but we’re interested in doing this together, first and foremost, and just being the best possible group we can be. Who knows what the future holds, but I’m certainly happy where we’re at at [as a group].

“You never know what will happen outside of NXT or outside the company in general. We’re being taken care of here and used well in my opinion, so I certainly don’t want to sacrifice that because I feel we have a good thing going. There’s still so many good matchups in NXT for us. If I’m doing the singles thing right now, that’s just a whole other avenue to go down.”

O’Reilly recently explained that he took several months off TV due to health concerns. O’Reilly suffers from Type 1 Diabetes which would put him at a higher risk if he were to become infected with COVID-19. He added that he’s happy with the precautions being taken and is glad to be back.

WrestleTalk.com will have live coverage for tonight’s TakeOver 31 event, which as noted, features O’Reilly challenging Finn Balor.
