Well, there you have it. No more ad-hoc appearances on Superstars for Kalisto, he's officially a member of the main roster.
I'm so pumped for the guy. Used properly I honestly believe he could have Rey Mysterio appeal with the kids and the adults alike. I'm hoping for the Lucha Dragons to get a decent run or two with the WWE Tag Team Championship and really ride on their momentum (unlike The Ascension who were pronounced dead on arrival).
Something equally exciting was the introduction of "Neville" to the WWE Universe. Why on earth they thought "Neville" sounded better than his full ring name is beyond me. It clearly lacks charisma and isn't a fair reflection of how exciting he is. Hopefully this is something they'll fix soon, the poor guy has literally never had a good ring name ("Pac"? What the hell was that?).
Anyway, what are your thoughts on the current NXT call-ups? Are they the right ones to have been brought up at the right time? Who do you see coming up next?

They are the right ones to come up right now.
Kalisto is a good addition, along with Sin Cara, to the tag team division. He's very exciting. Adrian Neville did everything there is to do in NXT. Won the NXT Title, 2 time Tag Champ, headlined TakerOvers and put over new guys like Balor.
Charlotte will most likely be next.

I'm not big on Kalisto, I don't like the "Lu-Cha!" chant with the arms. I think it's very childish and dumb, and no different than Fandango last year. The post WM Raw crowd is obviously gonna do it, and the fans for the next couple Raw's will do it, then they'll probably just sit on their hands. His in ring work looks great, and I like it, but don't make them so cartoony and childish, they're better than that.

Kalisto was brilliant! So fast, reminded me of Mysterio in his prime. Hope he remains with Sin Cara for at least a couple of years. And I disagree about the LU-CHA! chants. They're fun, simple as. And Neville? Are you kidding me? All I can think about when I hear that is

It was a good time for both to come up. But they missed the ball with Itami. Should have kept him down there a few more months. Especially since they just jobbed him out in the battle royal.

Kalisto and Neville are definately the right call ups for the moment. Kalisto is pretty goodand spectacular, who needs ing Rey Mysterio if you have this guy? Neville is pretty cool, too, I just don't like the name, they should have kept Adrian Neville, sounded a lot better!

Saxton sounded really awkward trying to say "Neville;" you could tell it woulda been easier for him to include the "Adrian." Plus the Twitter trend, which you know WWE was looking at, had "Adrian" included, so hopefully that (and his jacket) will be gone by his next appearance.
Kalisto turned some heads last night too. Really excited for what both of them could do.

It wasn't the case for me a few days ago so I totally hear Ya. The raw after mania usually does something to make me hopeful. Even last year with Paige I got excited even tho I knew little about her and don't really care about the divas division

I gotta say Neville made more of an impressive debut than Kalisto.

Kalisto rocked his debut, to me. Immediately won over both kids, and adults, and delivered in the ring.
Neville felt very 'meh', compared to what I expect from him.
I expect great things from both, but I thought Kalisto was head and shoulders better, and hit a home run in his debut.

Both debuts were well done. Both will be fan favorites in no time, imo. Very fun, crowd pleasing styles.

He did it to be stupid and to get over as an annoying heel, then it took off.

Kalisto impressed me last night, I'm actually glad he got called up, now the tag division will has a little more depth. Neville's debut was awesome. I've been a big fan of his for a while so I'm glad he's on the main roster. I don't see why they couldn't keep his first name. Adrian Neville sounds like a pretty cool name. Overall I'm happy with the NXT call ups. I'm hoping Balor is next.

If you watched it on mute, then Neville was very impressive. But, with Saxton commentating on his own, there was no enthusiasm in his delivery and so the match lacked a bit of atmosphere.
