SAnitY was split up in the Superstar Shake-Up as Eric Young was moved to Raw. The group failed to gain traction on the SmackDown brand after being called up in April 2018 as part of last year’s Superstar Shake-Up. Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer reported on Apr. 30 that Dain would be returning to NXT after this year’s Shake-Up. Fellow SAnitY member Alexander Wolfe recently joined the NXT UK brand during their latest set of television tapings. Eric Young has yet to debut on Raw.
Fightful will have full results from NXT live in Tampa shortly after the conclusion of the event.
