A big reunion could be on the way on WWE Raw.
During the Draft, Indi Hartwell, Dexter Lumis, Candice LeRae, and Johnny Gargano were all drafted to Raw. While Gargano and LeRae staying on the same brand isn’t a surprise given the fact they’re married in real life, the couple ending up on the same roster as Lumis and Hartwell raised more eyebrows.
The quartet previously worked together with Austin Theory in NXT as The Way.
After Gargano and LeRae aligned in early 2020, the ‘power-couple’ later recruited their ‘children’ Austin Theory and Indi Hartwell to complete the collective. Lumis then became part of the family via his relationship with Hartwell, which resulted in one of the most feel-good weddings in recent WWE history.
The group later broke apart as Theory moved to the main roster and Gargano and LeRae took a break from the ring. However, it has been reported by WRKD Wrestling that a reunion could be on the way.
“There are preliminary plans to reunite #WWENXT’s faction “The Way” in the future on the #WWERawbrand.”
It is important to note that Theory likely won’t be involved in any reunion after being drafted to SmackDown.
WWE Draft Shakes Up NXT
As part of the 2023 Draft, a number of NXT’s biggest stars were called up to the main roster. The list of NXT graduates includes Women’s Tag Team Champions Isla Dawn and Alba Fyre, Grayson Waller, Pretty Deadly, and Zoey Stark as well as Hartwell.
At the time she was drafted to Raw, Hartwell was also the NXT Women’s Champion, but her status has now changed. On May 2nd, Hartwell vacated her title and it was announced that a tournament will be held to decide a new champion, who will be crowned at Battleground on May 28th.
The show ended with a chaotic brawl featuring Tiffany Stratton, Cora Jade, and many more, as Hartwell was carried to safety by Dexter Lumis.
