10 Wrestlers Failed By NXT

The highlight of Marcus Louis’s NXT career probably wasn’t ideal for the French star. Losing a hair vs. hair match against Enzo and Big Cass, he was required to shave his head while his partner, Sylvester Lefort, ran away. This, unsurprisingly, led to some friction in the team and Louis eventually turned on Lefort before defeating him in a match.

Unfortunately, singles life didn’t work out for Louis. He quickly plummeted down the card, despite picking up wins over wrestling ‘legends’ like Steve Cutler and Tucker Knight. With it becoming apparent he was no longer a priority for those in charge it was perhaps unsurprising when Louis was released earlier this year.

At only 25-years-old, his career is far from over and if he can find his feet under his new persona of Baron Dax than he might get to pick up a few more victories somewhere down the road.
