Damien Priest and Rhea Ripley Now WWE Main Roster Talent
Two NXT stars are set to be permanent fixtures on the main roster.
Damien Priest and Rhea Ripley both appeared during Sunday’s Royal Rumble matches at the WWE ThunderDome inside Tropicana Field.
According to PWInsider, both appearances were meant to be main roster debuts for the NXT stars, confirmation on which brands they have been assigned to have yet to be revealed.
Following her loss at NXT New Year’s Evil, Rhea Ripley’s time with the black-and-gold brand ended. Damien Priest was originally scheduled to make his debut earlier last month on SmackDown, but ultimately those plans were nixed.
