Damien Priest vs Oney Lorcan vs Ridge Holland announced for NXT next week

The WWE have now announced a Triple Threat qualifier between Damien Priest, Oney Lorcan and Ridge Holland next week. At first glance, Damien Priest seems to be the favourite. However, considering how poorly the favourites have fared so far, newcomer Ridge Holland might not be too bad a name to place your bets on.


Regardless of who wins though, it seems that the WWE want to use the vacant title to build new stars going into the future; which is never a bad thing. With NXT’s main purpose being to provide to the WWE main roster and the show now extended to 2 hours, this is the one time where the phrase too much of anything is bad, doesn’t hold true.

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after.

His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
