Rumor Roundup: NXT’s Involvement In The 2020 Royal Rumble, The Latest On Kacy Catanzaro, More

1) NXT’s Involvement In The 2020 Royal Rumble

According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Live, we could be seeing a lot more NXT involvement at the Royal Rumble in 2020.

Here is what he said (h/t to Ringside News for the quote below):

“The idea for the Royal Rumble and god only knows if things could change and they could change a lot more depending on if AEW is winning or losing at that point, but… the plan was Royal Rumble men’s and women’s will be thirty spots. 10 spots going to Raw, 10 spots to SmackDown, 10 spots to NXT. That was the plan.”

My Take:

  • It would be cool to see NXT get treated as a third brand in the Royal Rumble match. I think that would make each spot feel that much more important. I would be down for it. 10 NXT stars do seem like a little much though.
