Hats off to Nathan Frazer for his speedball act during his successful NXT 2.0 debut Wednesday night.

The NXT UK star blitzed Grayson Waller, at one point literally running circles around (actually, over and under) him and causing the Aussie to try taking a timeout. Waller was a great first opponent for Frazer, as he was able to keep pace, hit some innovative offense himself, and sell like crazy for Nathan.

It really remains to be seen what NXT does with Frazer though – they’ve released a bunch of cruiserweights during the past two years and merged the Cruiserweight Championship with the North American title, so there’s no guarantee they’ve got plans for him.

But for a debut match, this couldn’t have gone much better.
