I absolutely have loved this guy since his matches with WALTER/GUNTHER. It's great seeing him in NXT, but does anyone know if he's just in the US temporarily or if we could get a main roster run from him? So many people he could work with across the board that would be great matches.

I think he's here to stay, so great chance we'll get to see him and Sheamus kill each other on the main roster someday.

I knew nothing about this dude, but when he was announced as DLC for WWE 2K22, people were super excited. So I checked out some matches.
Dude is awesome.
I really want him vs Butch for like 15 minutes on ppv.

His matches are awesome but… dude just kind of exists to me when he isn’t wrestling.

If only Vince was still around.

He had a match on NXT against Pete Dunne and one in Progress that I think is online, and for a bonus he and Dunne and WALTER had a triple threat on NXT UK. Not sure the quality of them but they can't be bad.

He needs a bit more than just "guy who wrestles good" for me.

I figure they wouldn't have put the NXT UK title on him, much less continued to use him after shuttering the brand, if they weren't going to keep him around full time.

I'll wait for the bandwagon 'til some CGI dragons show up.

Curious ending last night having Ilya take the clean pin. Wondering if this was just a temporary run in the US, or if he’s getting moved to Raw or Smackdown?

Missed opportunity not putting the title on him yesterday. Even for a short reign.
