Several WWE NXT Superstars are currently backstage for tonight’s live SmackDown on FOX from the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.
Austin Theory, Xia Li, Odyssey Jones and Aliyah are all backstage, according to PWInsider. There’s no word yet on if any of these Superstars will appear on TV tonight, but it’s likely that they were brought in to work dark matches for officials.
Theory is currently a member of The Way in NXT, with Johnny Gargano, Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell. Theory actually worked the RAW roster back in March 2020, as a client of Zelina Vega, teaming with Angel Garza and Andrade at times. He briefly joined a group with Seth Rollins and Murphy, before disappearing from the RAW storylines in June of last year. He returned to NXT in August.
