At NXT Takeover: Brooklyn 2, Ember Moon finally arrived in NXT. But who is she?

Before her match with Billie Kay, all we had seen of her to this point have been vignettes making her look like a Mortal Kombat character, watching her teleport and hearing a voiceover talking about a prophecy of fire. Neat!

Moon is called Adrienne Reese and signed with the company in September of 2015. Formerly known as “The Goddess” Athena on the indy scene, she’s competed in some of the top promotions across the United States with appearances in Shimmer, SHINE, ROH and Booker T's Reality of Wrestling promotion.

She’s now made her NXT debut, which is great, as she’s badly needed. With Carmella, Eva Marie and Alexa Bliss all called up to the main roster, the developmental brand needed some new blood for their women's division. Luckily, Reese is a great in-ring worker, and should soon be in showcase feuds with Asuka and Bayley soon.

While fans may not be overly familiar with her, they will soon. To help get to know her better in the meantime, here are eight things you didn’t know about Ember Moon...

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
