-Even before the news broke of AJ Styles, Doc Gallows, Karl Anderson and Shinsuke Nakamura coming to WWE, there was talk back in the fall about calling WWE NXT Champion Finn Balor to the main roster with a “Balor Club” stable but there wasn’t any concrete plans for who else would be in the group.
Vince McMahon reportedly wants to call Balor up to the main roster but Triple H has stressed that they need to be patient with Balor. Bringing Balor to the main roster with a stable received a negative reaction as the feeling was that his character needs a slow build that shows off its versatility.
With that said, there was talk at a RAW in December that due to the need for fresh, hot faces on WWE TV, they could bring a NXT stable to RAW to feud with the other stables. The idea pitched wasn’t for the “Balor Club” but for a separate stable made up of NXT stars who are considered for the main roster. Vince was said to be open to the idea but Triple H was against it as he was worried that the NXT brand could suffer with so many names being taken away at the same time. No word yet if they will go back to that plan or if they will move forward with the “Balor Club” now that some of NJPW’s top stars are likely coming in.
