6 Ups & 0 Downs From Last Night's WWE NXT (Mar 21)
2. Send For The Mann
Few words tell the story of Trevor Mann's high-flying alter-ego as well as visuals from the man himself, so it was helpful that WWE elected to knock together a brief teaser trailer for the incoming 'Future Of Flight'.
Famed the world over for his unimaginable aerial ability, the recent signee was shown in NXT action on the tape thanks to bottled appearances at Full Sail and on the brand's local shows. It's an unusually brave strategy from the company to let some of the genie out of the bottle early, but the brief shots of him in action weren't designed to grant any wishes.
Ricochet - crucially working as Ricochet - is almost here, and common sense suggests TakeOver: New Orleans might be the ideal location for his first formal foray.
