Shedding the Shadows of the Past, NXT’s Rising Star Charts His Own Path

The October 10, 2023 episode of NXT witnessed a poignant moment as a superstar grappled with the weight of his legacy and chose to redefine his identity. The superstar in question? None other than the son of the legendary Brian Pillman.

Addressing the NXT universe, he began by acknowledging the immense legacy of his father, one of the most iconic figures in wrestling history. However, he expressed the personal anguish of being constantly reminded of a father he barely knew, having lost him at the tender age of four.

While many remember Brian Pillman for his trailblazing contributions to the sport, the memories are tinged with pain and a sense of loss for his son. Despite the challenges and the shadow of his father’s legacy, he admitted that wrestling was in his blood, an inescapable calling.

In a powerful declaration, he announced his decision to shed the “Pillman” name, not out of disrespect, but to honor another significant figure in his life. From this point forward, he would be known by the name of the man who truly raised him, the real father figure in his life: King.

With this bold move, NXT’s newest star, now known as “King,” has set the stage for a promising career where he will carve out his legacy, separate from the shadows of the past.
