The 2024 WWE Draft is right around the corner and with that hopefully we get a refresh of each brand, including NXT.
Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan has checked in with NXT sources and has found out the following information.
Fightful Select has learned that RAW and SmackDown roster members will be eligible to be drafted to NXT in the 2024 WWE Draft as part of a renewed focus to re-establish NXT as WWE's third brand.

The Final Testament and Ivar made surprise appearances on this past week’s episode of NXT . There have been a few question marks over NXT’s role in the draft, one being the possibility of main roster talent being drafted to NXT. This is not just a tease, with The Final Testament and Ivar’s appearances on this past Tuesday’s edition of NXT setting the stage for other main roster stars to make the jump during the event as part of a renewed focus on making NXT the third brand of WWE once again. This would move Scarlett with The Final Testament to NXT. There was no word in this report on Valhalla staying with Ivar or not.
Brennan has also been told that the next two weeks of NXT programming will focus on the draft in the lead up to Spring Breakin’, as shown on this past Tuesday’s episode of NXT.
Fightful Select has learned that Ilja Dragunov and Carmelo Hayes are said to be "a lock" for RAW or SmackDown in the WWE Draft, while several other NXT talent have been told as of this weekend that their status is still unknown.

Roxanne Perez’s status for the draft still remains up in the air despite on television teases.
Elsewhere in NXT, Tony D’Angelo’s Family and Baron Corbin have been discussed as possible additions to RAW or SmackDown. This would move Adriana Rizzo to the main roster if she were to be included in The Family’s call up.
