One of NXT’s newest arrivals made their debut at tonight’s television tapings.
Ricochet, who wrestled using that name, took part in his first match for NXT by facing Fabian Aichner. Ricochet got loud reactions from the crowd during the match and won with the 630.
Triple H also posted a photo of Ricochet on Twitter tonight to hype up his debut.
After it had been known that he was WWE bound for a while, it was announced on January 16th that Ricochet had officially signed with the company and had reported to the Performance Center. He wrestled his final independent match for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla at their Mystery Vortex show on January 12th.
Ricochet was shown sitting in the front row on the TakeOver: Philadelphia broadcast last Saturday night. Candice LeRae, War Machine, and EC3 were all shown as well.
NXT was at Center Stage in Atlanta tonight for the second straight night of tapings. They’ll return to Full Sail University on March 7th for the final tapings before TakeOver: New Orleans.
