Eleven NXT wrestlers called up on WWE Draft night two
Eleven NXT wrestlers were called up to WWE’s main roster on night two of the 2023 WWE Draft.
Grayson Waller is arguably the headliner of the night two picks, as he has challenged for the NXT Championship on last week’s Spring Breakin’ episode. Waller was drafted to the SmackDown brand.
