Report: WWE Targeting Two Call-Ups From NXT
Who does Triple H reportedly want to call up next from WWE NXT to strengthen the RAW and SmackDown rosters? While the WWE NXT roster has an expansive women's division, the men's side of things is a lot thinner. But evidently that doesn't matter to Triple H as he reportedly has his eyes on two of NXT's top male Superstars to call up to the main roster in the near future. According to Dave Meltzer in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Ricky Saints and NXT North American Champion Ethan Page are on WWE's radar as far as the next round of call-ups are concerned. However, The CW might not appreciate losing Ethan Page from the NXT brand. Meltzer states that the network loves Page and wants to use him in as many promotions as possible. The network loves how Page handles media appearances and recently had him present at a NASCAR race on the channel. Stay tuned to WrestleZone for more information as it becomes available.

Former WWE Superstar Returning For One More Match
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The "forbidden door" between WWE and TNA has swung wide open once again, as TNA's Director of Authority, Santino Marella, made a shocking return to WWE on last night's episode of NXT. The former Intercontinental Champion is now set for his first official WWE match in over a decade, and it will be for a championship. On the July 29th episode of NXT, Marella will challenge "All Ego" Ethan Page for the NXT North American Championship. The match was made after a heated confrontation between the two Canadians. Ethan Page isn't making himself any friends here in Houston... 😬@OfficialEGO — WWE (@WWE) July 23, 2025 The Challenge Is Made During the July 22nd broadcast of NXT, the newly crowned North American Champion, Ethan Page, came to the ring. He unveiled a new, customized version of the title belt that featured a Canadian flag strap. Page then cut a scathing promo, denouncing the United States and praising his home country of Canada. Page's promo was cut short by the surprise arrival of Santino Marella. The TNA authority figure, also a proud Canadian, took exception to Page's attitude and challenged him to a championship match, which was made official for the following week. More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match An Unprecedented Partnership Santino Marella's appearance is the latest and one of the most surprising examples of the unprecedented working relationship between WWE and TNA Wrestling. This "forbidden door" partnership has created a wave of excitement in the wrestling world. It has already seen TNA's Jordynne Grace compete in the WWE Royal Rumble and on NXT, and NXT's Trick Williams have a run as the TNA World Heavyweight Champion.

HOUSTON, TEXAS - MARCH 11: A general stadium view during WWE Monday Night RAW at Toyota Center on March 11, 2024 in Houston, Texas. The collaboration allows for dream match scenarios and surprise appearances that were thought to be impossible just a couple of years ago. The arrival of a TNA on-screen official to challenge for a WWE title is another major step in this historic partnership. The Return Of The "Milan Miracle" Santino Marella is one of the most beloved comedic characters in WWE history. He famously debuted in 2007 during a Raw taping in Milan, Italy, where he was chosen from the crowd (in storyline) to challenge Umaga for the Intercontinental Championship. In a shocking upset, he won the title on his very first night, earning him the nickname the "Milan Miracle." Throughout his WWE career, he would go on to win the Intercontinental title a second time, as well as the United States Championship and the WWE Tag Team Championship. Marella is most famous for his hilarious backstage segments and his finisher, "The Cobra," a sock puppet snake that delivered a paralyzing strike. While he has wrestled sporadically on the independent scene since leaving WWE in 2014, this will be his first high-profile WWE match in years.

WWE Has Discussed Adding New Members To Fan-Favorite Faction: Report
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A new report suggests that the dominant WWE faction led by Seth Rollins, Bron Breakker, and Paul Heyman could be expanding. The group recently added powerhouse Bronson Reed to its ranks. According to two more notable names have been internally pitched to join the group. Current NXT star Ethan Page and recent free agent Ricky Starks are reportedly being considered. A History Of Ricky Starks Ricky Starks is one of the most prominent free agents in professional wrestling today. He has never had a formal run under a main WWE contract. Starks first rose to prominence in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), where he became the inaugural NWA World Television Champion. He then joined All Elite Wrestling, where his charisma made him a breakout star. In AEW, Starks was a former FTW Champion and the winner of the 2023 Owen Hart Foundation Men's Tournament. He became a free agent in early 2025 after his AEW contract expired.

He built his reputation in promotions like Ring of Honor and a lengthy, successful run in TNA.

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - APRIL 19: Seth Rollins flips off the ropes while wrestling Roman Reigns Triple Threat match during WrestleMania 41 at Allegiant Stadium on April 19, 2025 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Page spent several years in AEW before his contract expired at the end of 2024. He made his surprise debut for WWE on the NXT brand in early 2025. He has since become a featured star on the Tuesday night show. His potential call-up to join the Raw faction would be a rapid ascent to the main roster. These internal discussions suggest WWE sees the new faction as a major project. The potential addition of two accomplished stars like Starks and Page would make the group an even more formidable force. Rollins' WWE career has been defined by the factions he has both led and destroyed. He debuted as the "Architect" of The Shield alongside Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose, orchestrating their dominance before infamously betraying them to join The Authority. As Triple H's chosen "Future of WWE," this alliance propelled him to his first WWE Championship in the "Heist of the Century" at WrestleMania 31. Years later, he transformed into the cult-like "Monday Night Messiah," leading a faction of disciples that included Murphy and AOP to enforce his vision on Monday Night Raw.
