Kevin Owens tweeted a fan made photo of him heading up the Undisputed ERA and we sincerely hope it actually leads to something.

2019 has been a busy year when it comes to NXT call-ups. The first batch occurred as what felt like a kneejerk reaction to dwindling ratings and a poor TV product for WWE. The batch that included EC3, Lacey Evans, and Heavy Machinery. How Vince McMahon has used some of those Superstars tells you all you need to know about how much, or little, thought the boss put into the call-ups.

Shortly after those initial call-ups, some even bigger NXT names debuted on Raw and SmackDown Live. Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano, Tomasso Ciampa, and Ricochet. While Ciampa has since been sidelined and Gargano has returned to NXT, Black and Ricochet remain on the main roster. Ricochet has been spotlighted while it seems Black is about to be sometime soon.

NXT has not been completely raided in 2019, however. There are some massive acts left at Full Sail. Acts NXT fans are terrified Mr. McMahon is going to get his hands on and misuse. The act we are most worried about when it comes to that is Undisputed ERA. The quartet is one of the best faction's in wrestling right now. When they are eventually called up, it needs to be as a foursome, and the angle needs to be rock solid.

What we would be incredibly happy with is an established main roster star bringing UE into the fold. Who better to do that than Kevin Owens? This week, KO tweeted a fan-made photo of himself standing with the four members of UE. The photo makes him look like the leader and was a reaction to Adam Cole suggesting the two of them do battle. Fingers crossed this is an idea Owens will run past the boss, and one that will be executed well should it happen.

This isn't the first time KO has hinted that he would like to be a part of UE. At NXT TakeOver: WarGames, Owens was pictured in the front row and opened his jacket to reveal an UE t-shirt. For now, all we can do is imagine the havoc these five men could wreak on the main roster. Hopefully, some time soon, that daydreaming will become a reality.
