Free agency is a real thing in the pro wrestling industry and these are three names that should be at the top of the list for WWE to sign in 2021.

The NXT Vs. AEW Wednesday night War is looking to continue with AEW winning it in 2021. With the recent  Bullet Club Reunion and The Impact Wrestling partnership, AEW has all eyes on them right now. When we look back at 2020, It wasn’t a bad year for NXT. We had multiple title changes, several big surprises, and shocking moments for the Gold brand. In this article, I break down three wrestlers that NXT Needs to sign in 2021.

1. Tessa Blanchard

When Tessa Blanchard left Impact wrestling last June, the first thing I said was that she was either going to go to AEW or go to NXT. It has been seven months, and we have yet to see the former world champion in any major wrestling company. She will only be turning 26 this year, which is crazy to think about because of all that she has accomplished. Tessa Blanchard would be a great fit in NXT women’s division. Tessa Blanchard signing with NXT would be the star power NXT women’s division would need to help push the division to the top. I think Tessa Blanchard coming into NXT and going straight for the title would make for some interesting television on Wednesday nights.

2.   Jay White

At Wrestle Kingdom 15, the world of professional wrestling witness Jay White’s dream of becoming a double champion end.  That story may have ended in defeat, but a new story was created from the finish of that match because it showed the professional wrestling world that  Jay White should be considered among the best in the business. The January 6 New Years Dash show was Switchblade, AKA Jay White’s last date to work with NJPW.  White has been with NJPW since 2014 and has accomplished a lot, but now is the time for him to start a new chapter and become the face of NXT and be that evil heel NXT needs. In NJPW we saw him reach new levels when he became world champion.

3.  Ethan Page

At 31 years of age, Ethan Page has accomplished a lot while in Impact wrestling as part of the Longest reigning Impact champions, The North. In 2020 we saw Ethan Page work hard to show that he can be a force in the world of professional wrestling. With him being a free agent now, WWE shouldn’t pass him by.  The Ethan page we saw in Impact wrestling in 2020 is only a small piece of what he can truly do and become I can see Ethan being built as a good babyface that wins the North American title and gets the fans on his side.

dark. Next. WWE: Top matches for 2020

I know for a fact that with these three, there will be a bidding war between WWE And AEW for Tessa Blanchard, Jay White, and Ethan Page because book how talented the wrestlers are. I think NXT needs them more than AEW.  NXT needs to have a huge 2021 so that they won’t be forgotten with everything that is going to be happening on AEW Wednesday nights.
