Is NXT already the best babyface roster in wrestling?
In Finn Balor and his demonic alter ego they have a megastar superhero in or out of the paint. Johnny Gargano is Mr NXT, loved by those that love this brand for his commitment to it. Candice LeRae maybe has the potential to be the best pure babyface on the show since Bayley’s 2016 peak. And now, two surgically repaired knees and all, Tegan Nox is on her way back.
With respect to NXT UK, USA Network is where the Welsh star belongs. One of the finest female talents to ever emerge from the UK, the devastating, protracted start to life in NXT proper for Nox informs her reason to be on the black and gold brand.Bravery and spirit are already in high supply just by virtue of her walking to the ring, and that’s all before she gets to weave into her encounters with villains of the women’s division.
As far as these video package talent announcements for this brand have gone since the move to USA, this one topped the lot.
