Report: Cameron Grimes Set For A WWE Main Roster Push

Cameron Grimes is one the newest additions to WWE’s main roster after receiving his call-up during the 2023 WWE draft, getting picked for the SmackDown brand.

He made his first appearance on the show this past week in a backstage segment featuring Baron Corbin and Adam Pearce. The pair went back and forth due to Grimes being the last man picked in the draft, and due to Corbin not being selected for either Raw or SmackDown at all, leaving him as a free agent. They agreed to a match next week, setting up Grimes’ official main roster in-ring debut.

Despite being the last draft pick, it seems as though Grimes is in store for some big things on the main roster. WRKD Wrestling reported on twitter that Grimes is in WWE’s plans.

“While drafted last, we've heard HHH has high hopes for Cameron Grimes, having long advocated for him to be called up. Between mic skills/body transformation, he has supporters backstage and a push is expected once the draft goes into effect.”

Grimes previously found success in NXT, reigning as both the NXT North American Champion and briefly as the Million Dollar Champion too.
