Dude is becoming a legit star in NXT. He has an incredible aura, he looks like a badass, he really leaned into the Kurt Cobain look and he feels so comfortable in his promos. I have zero idea how TK could let this man slip away.

​@@Thor-OrionSorta like what they did with Bron Breaker

When I first moved to Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky 18 years ago, the first house I bought was maybe a mile and a half from the famous “Pillman’s Got A Gun” house, the house Brian Jr. grew up in at least for a little while. Was always a fan of his dads, and glad to see Brian Jr starting to gain some traction in WWE.

Favorite wrestler on NXT right now

Pillman was one of the people I was most excited to see get a shot on National Television, from his interviews and what limited work I had seen of his here on KZread. I was really disappointed with how little he was featured, we all know that AEW signed way too many wrestlers and didn’t use the ROH purchase as they should have to highlight more of them on alternate brands. Fast forward to now and he’s doing great in NXT, and I’m so glad to see it, one of the best things about AEW existing is how much it has benefitted the wrestlers who now can go elsewhere when they aren’t being featured and still be on National Television. TNA has also been rejuvenated and rebuilding since AEW came onto the scene, which was certainly helped by the cross promotion that they did with AEW. Regardless of how anyone feels about AEW or Tony Khan, his money and promotion has certainly been to the benefit of the business and the wrestlers themselves.

So much potential I enjoyed his work in MLW with the new Hart Foundation great stuff I’m glad he made the jump to WWE

Man I love this NXT run

Lexis is giving me the vibes of a reliable wrestler. where you can insert him on the main event or big match feuds.

Always a good feeling to get a new job fast enough to get paid in the same month as your old job.

I completely agree with Aba, about those nails.

he looks primetime. can believe they did not renew him.

The Kurt Cobain/Brian Pillman his father swagger.

I think NXT is perfect for him. AEW just isn’t set up to develop multiple young wrestlers while getting exposure at the moment. ROH would be the ideal place for that but there isn’t a tv deal so it feels like talent gets relegated to where it’s harder to get over. And I’m saying that as an “AEW guy.” I hope the best for him and I know the future is bright

They should have done something totally different with ROH than what they did when they started. I would’ve brought in Bret Hart and Lance Storm and had them and Dustin Rhodes make ROH a developmental feeder league. Have them learn how to properly wrestle and tell a story in the ring, I would maybe have Dutch Mantell involved if possible. Cornette would be a great hire too, just keep him away from the elite, I don’t care if he and Tony don’t personally get along, it’s what’s best for business; having guys with loads of experience pass that experience on to the next generation. Jeff Jarrett is already there and he is really good at keeping Cornette away from people he hates like Vince Russo. Bret Hart not being involved at any level of the business is everything that is wrong with the business today, Bret is the in ring goat and should be passing his experience and in-ring knowledge down to young guys.

He’s one of my favorite nxt wrestlers glad to see he’s being used here

After seeing him in MLW I was super hyped that he got signed to AEW. Sadly they didn't push him like I hoped but I'm still glad he can get his run in with the fed.

I know he was happy af

Looks just like his dad for real. #RipBrianPillman

So bummed they didn't let him use Brian Pillman jr

Dude got double pay form WWE and AEW! He kind of the Rick Rude it?

Give him a chance

He’s got the look for sure

Good for him

Like his dad he was getting paid from two companies at the same time.

Someone from AEW was looking out for him and knew someone who would sign him up at NXT

Man....I know he doesnt want to just be "Brian Pillman's kid" and wants to carve out his own legacy....but goddamn he looks just like his dad. Wish nothing but the best for this kid though, I honestly believe he's got a bright future.

He’s like a revamped version of his dad I like it I feel like dean ambros gimmick came from Brian Pillman sr

WE LOVE YOU STAY UP HOMIE

Gif bless Asian 🙏

NXT instantly made BP jr a STAR

What a f'n match!!

I think if they do good with him and he believes in himself. He could be a huge 2nd generation talent. I can really see Breaker and Pillman both becoming future champions. If anyone can be like their father, he has all the tools and just watching videos of his father, and oh my, this kid has it.

Didn't his dad get paid by WCW and ECW at the same time? Like father like son!

Some people work better in other places. Whether it Swerve, Toni Storm, Joe or sting, etc in Aew or Lexis King, Cody, Jade in WWE. Things happen like that for various reasons: untimely injuries, character development, bad booking, not enough usage, etc. That’s why it’s great to have them both what one company can’t do for you the other can.

This dude is a human, time capsule! His looks sooo much like his father did, too.

This is just one of the many wrestlers that are being underused in aew

Tony k. Seriously dropped the ball on this one

He done well 😂😂😂

Man really is his father just like Brian pillman he went from wcw aka aew to wwe became more of a star and got paid by both ppl 💀

I´m an AEW fan, but it is obvious that AEW never really invested in him while he was there. Either because they didn´t have the necessary system in place or because they didn´t see him as worth the effort. Both those options are wrong in a mainstream company. Pillman/King has way more to offer than what we saw in AEW.

Time will tell, and people talking him up based on a brief NXT run are jumping the gun considerably in my opinion. However, while he may prove to be better than he was used in AEW, can he be a top wrestler? Because when you have a company of well over 100 wrestlers, being a bit better isn't going to cut it.

@@darrenrrawlings There is certainly a factor of signing people just to not let anyone else have them. At best WWE utilizes its machinery to create stars (rare these days). At worst WWE actively shuts down stars in the making who become popular on their own. So it´s not black and white. And while I was never a huge HHH fan back in the day, the work he is doing running things is a huge step up from Vince's efforts over the last decade or two.

His character looks like a rocker and if Toni Storm was still looking like a Montley Crew groupie she would made a good team with him.

Bro was given chance after chance and didn't work out there. He never got better.

If he stayed on AEW, Christian would roast him.

AEW took a MLW star, & wasted him to the point they didn't want him back. WWE was smart enough to grab him up ASAP, & are doing a great job with him.

*AEW should’ve used him in the “LOOSE CANNON” gimmick that gave his father more exposure. But of course, they’d have gotten him over and let him go, just like they did with Jade Cargill. 🤦‍♂️*

It's actually crazy to think now, WWE is putting talent to better use than AEW. 😊 I guess AEW has atleast served its purpose within the universe

Tony Khan did not know what he wanted to do with Brian Pillman Jr. Tony brought Ring of Honor and while I don't want to call ROH a developmental brand... Brian should have gone there.

It wasn't so much of a decision as opposed to a matter of being the only choice.

AEW really dropped the ball with him and the varsity blondes as a whole. How they didn’t end up turning heels and start stuffing rookies in lockers was beyond me

Lexis Kinda looks like Pirate Burchill

Tony Kahn is horrible at resigning wrestlers. Look how many left cause of just that.

Being paid by multiple promotions runs in the Pillman family I see

His MLW run was better then his AEW run...AEW is trash worst booking in history

I don’t any 2nd place wrestling company will last as long as wcw

AEW def dropped the ball with Pillman. The Varsity Blondes always felt like they reached in a hat and pulled a gimmick

He got out of AEw at the perfect time. AEW can't build stars. They ruined warlow and even MJF.

Aye

He is where he belongs he needs his dad's loose cannon WWF theme ‼️

Wow! Double bubble! Paid by both companies in the same month! I think AEW dropped the ball on Lexis King FKA Brian Pillman Junior, WWE dropped the ball on so many good wrestlers now AEW is doing the same with the likes of Jade Cargill and Sean Spears. I loved his chairman of the board angle which unfortunately went right over Tony Khan's head,. I hope he renews his rivalry with Cody Rhodes as he attacked him many times using this gimmick!

The fact that Garrison is still with AEW and Pillman is not just confuses the heck out of me. I don't get it. King/Pillman will do fine. I don't watch WWE television often but it looks like he's doing just fine. This is the beauty of competition. These wrestlers can find work in multiple companies.
