Major Star Returning To WWE NXT?
NXT will seemingly soon see the return of THIS major fan favourite.
It looks like Dominik Dijakovic could soon be returning to NXT.
Last night's Halloween Havoc special featured a brief vignette which showed a mask burning in a fire. That mask? Why, it looked remarkably similar to the one previously worn by Dijakovic under his T-BAR persona.
Not just are fans taking this short video as an indicator that the T-BAR gimmick is finally being completely dropped, but this speculation was only added to further when the powerhouse himself took to Twitter shortly after this footage aired.
If you kill him, he will win. Become vengeance. Become wrath.

With Triple H having made plentiful changes during his time steering the WWE ship across these past few months, many fans have hoped that Dominik Dijakovic may be one of those to benefit under Paul Levesque's new regime. Now, it looks as if those fans could well get their wish.
Having been with WWE since 2017, the former Ring of Honor standout at one point became a major player on the NXT brand. There, Dijakovic challenged for both the North American Championship and the NXT Championship, and was also featured in a WarGames match back in 2019.
Despite seemingly being set for big things on the WWE main roster, Dijakovic's call-up was a dud as he was repackaged as T-BAR as a member of the doomed RETRIBUTION stable. Even after that faction split, the 6'7" star still maintained his T-BAR gimmick and continued to team with Mace. That tandem was split when Mace - nowadays known as ma.çé of Maximum Male Models - was drafted to SmackDown last year, and Dijakovic has since been stuck competing as T-BAR on WWE Main Event.
