The WWE brand split is only a few weeks away and it’s been rumored that WWE is aggressively scouting talent and it’s also rumored that NXT will likely get raided to fill out the rosters.
On a related note, Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter recently noted that WWE has been calling a lot of “40+ year old guys” to return to the company for the brand split.
WWE just realized they have to fill two rosters, calling lots of 40+ year old guys to return for the new era.
