Fightful Select reported that Mike Rome is imminently set to begin announcing for NXT, a role he held between 2016 and 2019.

This left a lot of questions for fans on what would come of Alicia Taylor, who has served as NXT’s ring announcer for the past few years, and has also filled on some main roster shows when needed. Fightful Select’s Corey Brennan has learned that Taylor is set for her own callup to the main roster post Backlash, with Rome going the other way. Taylor will be on Smackdown.

As of this writing, there hasn’t been an indication of which main roster brands Alicia and Samantha Irvin will ring announce for. Taylor has been ring announcing for NXT since 2019.

Alicia has been amazing, incredibly happy for her !

Dylan Stewart

Just assuming since ricochet is on Raw, Samantha will be on Raw and Alicia will be on Smackdown, but anyway great for her, that’s fantastic!

Laquita Momon

I'm guessing Alicia will be on SmackDown since Samantha is on Raw unless they move Ricochet.

Brennan Norris

Tough choice for Samantha. Does she stay on RAW for Ricochet or go to SD for Chelsea???

Desmond McDade

Good for her, I would think she'll probably be on SMACKDOWN

Kevin andrade

Isn’t that a demotion for Mike Rome? Wonder if they weren’t happy with him.

joe gonzales

Probably just an award for Alicia. Maybe lighter travel for Rome. Can’t imagine it’s any kind of demotion based on performance. 🤷‍♂️

Robert Moore

Hopefully Samantha stays on Raw and Alicia goes to Smackdown
