Shawn Michaels has commented on the main roster call-up of Kiana James.
Kiana James was one of two WWE NXT Superstars to be called up to the main roster as part of the 2024 WWE Draft. James was drafted to WWE Raw in the final pick of the televised portion of the first night of the draft.
Speaking on X, WWE Hall of Famer "HBK" Shawn Michaels praised James as someone who knows how good she is and now has the opportunity to show the world on Monday nights.
Every time she steps between those ropes, @kianajames_wwe gets better and better.
