Carmelo Hayes Highlights The Biggest Task Linked To WWE Main Roster Appearances

Many within the WWE Universe expect Carmelo Hayes to be called up to the main roster sooner rather than later.

WWE NXT Superstar Carmelo Hayes recently sat down with Jay Reddick of Orlando Sentinel. When asked about appearing on RAW and SmackDown over the summer, Hayes said he found it fascinating to step out of the comfort zone of NXT.

“When you’re in NXT, you’re kind of in your little comfort zone, your little bubble,” Carmelo Hayes began. “But then how do you go to town in each city and figure out how (fans) are different and how to work around that? I found that really, really fascinating. Because if you think about it, they don’t know who I am, to an extent.

“How do I get them to care about seven or eight minutes, which is a challenge in itself? I have such equity in NXT, with similar crowds every week, and they’ve seen me since I was brand-new, so they’ve followed my journey. But now you’re trying to introduce yourself to a new city, a lot of them are casual fans who don’t know you. That’s the biggest task, I think. But knowing that this is my future, I thought, ‘OK, I can hang up here with these guys.'”

Hayes got to show the WWE main roster fans what he was capable of in a loss to Finn Balor on the June 26 edition of Monday Night RAW.
