• Shawn Michaels & Triple H Are Behind Two NXT UK Wrestlers’ Push
It looks like NXT UK wrestlers Jordan Devlin (who’s the current Cruiserweight Champion) and Ilja Dragunov have big supporters in WWE – Hall of Famers Shawn Michaels and Triple H.
According to the Wrestling Observer, HBK is a big fan of Devlin’s work and wants him to go on multiple WWE brands to defend the Cruiserweight Championship.
On the other hand, Alex McCarthy of talkSPORT noted that Triple H is “obsessed” with Dragunov and you can expect him to get even more opportunities in NXT UK.
