1) WWE’s Original Plans For Shayna Baszler
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, WWE originally had some big plans for Shayna Baszler on the WWE main roster in 2020.
These plans are now in question after NXT moved to the USA Network. Here is what Meltzer said about Shayna (via Ringside News):
“What I can say is that she is earmarked in 2020. You know, again, because of NXT going to USA, everything’s out the window. Before NXT was on USA she was being groomed for the main roster and she was going to be a star on the main roster. They thought very, very highly of her and obviously they still think very highly of her because she’s had the Women’s Championship in NXT for a long time.”
“There were absolutely plans for her on the main roster and they were significant. Unless the idea is that they’re not going to bring her up because they’re not going to do that with NXT people anymore which would be too bad unless they start paying them like they do the main roster.”
