NXT Season 4

[Troy]

NXT Season 4​

Alberto Del Rio - Conor O’Brian
Chris Masters - Byron Saxton
Daniel Bryan - Derrick Bateman
R-Truth - Johnny Curtis
Dolph Ziggler - Jacob Novak
Ted DiBiase - Brodius Clay

​

O'Brian was previously known as Ryan O'Reilly in OVW and I believe that he made an appearance or two on WWE tv under that name. He is your typical WWE sized guy.

Saxton was previously ECW's play by play commentator. I am glad that he hasn't been forgotten about after ECW finished. I haven't seen him wrestle before but we do know that he can talk.

Bateman I can't find any information on.

Curtis has been in WWE developmental since 2006 so he has been waiting in the wings for some time now. Again he is the typical WWE size and has mainly been used in a tag team in FCW.

Novak I can't find any information on.

Clay is better known as George Murdoch or G-Rilla from OVW/FCW. He is a huge guy at around 6"8' and 360lbs.

No Seth Rollins AKA Tyler Black. Hopefully he will be brought up to the main roster anyway just through a normal debut like ADR did when NXT was running. No Brett DiBiase, Orlando Colon, Taylor Rotunda or Xavier Woods either.

What do you think of the pros and rookies for Season 4?​

Dark Match:
Cody Rhodes beat Seth Rollins
WWE NXT:
* Johnny Curtis b. Jacob Novak
* Jacob Novak won a WWE NXT Rookie ladder challenge.
* Alberto Del Rio & Conor O’Brian b. Derrick Bateman & WWE United States Champion Daniel Bryan when Bateman tapped.

First show for Season 4 of NXT. With such a small roster I don't mind just two matches a week, otherwise it would mean everyone wrestles each week in different combinations. Interesting to note that Seth Rollins had a dark match, maybe a debut to come early next year for him?
