It looks like we will be seeing some new faces on NXT TV soon.
According to Dave Meltzer on the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE is planning on debuting two top athletes on NXT.
Two people being readied to debut on television in NXT are AJ Amrhein, who was a member of the acrobatics and tumbling team at Baylor University and was Baylor’s 2020 scholar athlete of the year, and Isaac Odugbesan, who was one of the best shot putters in the college ranks this past season.
Amrhein will use the name Dani Palmer. Odugbesan was still using that name but obviously that will be changed soon. He placed third in the NCAA championships with a 67-2 throw and won the Eastern finals with a 68-5 throw. He was seventh in the indoor finals and won the SEC. He’s 21 years old and originally from Nigeria

We will have to wait and see how successful Amrhein and Odugbesan will turn out in NXT.
