NXT’s Lexis King is confident that he would easily transition to the main roster.
King made his NXT debut at NXT Halloween Havoc 2023. He continues to make a name for himself on the brand. But he believes that he would gel with main roster stars if he got called up today.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Lexis King was asked whether he would be ready for a potential call-up to the main roster.
“I was born ready for this,” Lexis King said. “I live and breathe this business. Of course I’m ready. I’m already working like a top guy, I’m already working under guys like Shawn Michaels and Terry Taylor that have already taught me how to be a top guy. I already work a main roster style.
“I go up there and I’ll gel better with those guys than any of these guys down here ever could. I think that they want me on the main roster. I think that they’re begging to get me up to the main roster, but NXT wants to keep me.
Lexis King: I’ll Be The King Of RAW Or SmackDown
Lexis King went on to claim that he heard that they want him on the main roster, but he would do NXT a favor by staying there. He stated that he would remain in NXT until RAW or SmackDown were begging for him to join them.
“I’ve actually heard that in passing,” he said. “‘Oh, man, they really want Lexis King up there, he’s such a big star.’ But I’m going to do NXT a favor and I’m going to stay down here, and I’m gonna elevate these young guys and girls, and I’m gonna keep being the best act on this show until they’re begging for me to be on SmackDown and RAW, until they’re dying to have me up there.
“Then they’re gonna bring me up there, and then I’m gonna be The King of SmackDown, I’m gonna be The King of RAW. Because that’s just how it rolls her. This system is designed for Lexis King.”
