When All Elite Wrestling first launched it became common for WWE stars to make the jump to AEW. In recent years we’ve seen more AEW stars make the jump to WWE with names like Jade Cargill, Ethan Page and Lexis King joining the company.

Ricky Starks has become a very hot topic as of late due to the fact that he’s still under contract with AEW and the company isn’t using him. Booker T discussed Ricky Starks’ status on his Hall of Fame podcast, and the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion made it clear that he thinks Starks would be a good fit for the NXT brand.

“Do I think he can fit in NXT right now? Of course. I mean, just like Ethan Page, he can make a huge difference as far as the roster goes. He is very charismatic. He is a guy with upside.

As far as Ricky Starks’ work, I haven’t really gotten a chance to really see him go out there and do a lot in the ring. But just like Ethan Page when he came to NXT, I didn’t see a lot of him either. He showed me what he was worth very quickly, almost immediately… A guy like Starks, if he came over, he’ll do the same thing.”

Do you think Ricky Starks would be a good fit for NXT? Sound off in the comments below.
