Former AEW wrestler Brian Pillman Jr. was recently spotted working out at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, FL and has now signed with the company.
As we previously reported here on eWn, it was considered less likely that WWE would hire Pillman Jr. right now until WWE’s merger with the UFC was completed. That has changed.
PWInsider.com reports Pillman Jr. officially started with WWE NXT this week.
The report added that “currently there is “no rush” to debut Pillman Jr., 29, on television as the initial plan is to get Pillman into the PC system and allow him to get his feet under him.”
