NXT Talent Was Supposed To Debut On Last Week's SmackDown

Insider @WrestleVote is reporting on Twitter that WWE had plans for an NXT talent to be called on SmackDown last week during the main event segment with Roman Reigns, The Usos and Kevin Owens, but for some unknown reason they didn't roll with it and it might have been pushed back to this week.

The talent wasn't named.

"Just heard an interesting story... NXT talent was slated to be called up to SmackDown last week, as of showtime, was written into the main event segment w/ Reigns, Uso & KO. Said talent is on tonight’s big NXT card so curious to see if it was pushed a week or scrapped altogether."
